Fortinet Exam FCP_FCT_AD-7.2 Topic 1 Question 5 Discussion

Actual exam question for Fortinet's FCP_FCT_AD-7.2 exam
Question #: 5
Topic #: 1
[All FCP_FCT_AD-7.2 Questions]

Refer to the exhibit.

Based on the settings shown in the exhibit what action will FortiClient take when it detects that a user is trying to download an infected file?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: D

Block Malicious Website has nothing to do with infected files. Since Realtime Protection is OFF, it will be allowed without being scanned.

Based on the settings shown in the exhibit:

Realtime Protection: OFF

Dynamic Threat Detection: OFF

Block malicious websites: ON

Threats Detected: 75

The 'Realtime Protection' setting is crucial for preventing infected files from being downloaded and executed. Since 'Realtime Protection' is OFF, FortiClient will not actively scan files being downloaded. The setting 'Block malicious websites' is intended to prevent access to known malicious websites but does not scan files for infections.

Therefore, when a user tries to download an infected file, FortiClient will allow the file to download without scanning it due to the Realtime Protection being OFF.

Haha, D? Really? I'd like to see the person who thinks letting an infected file download is a good idea. That's like putting a rattlesnake in your pocket and hoping for the best.

I'm going with A. If FortiClient can't stop the infected file, what's the point of having it in the first place? Might as well just throw the whole computer out the window.

Definitely A. I can't believe anyone would think it's a good idea to let the infected file download. That's just asking for trouble!

The correct answer is A. FortiClient should block the infected file as it's downloading. Anything else would be a security risk.
