Fortinet Exam NSE6_FWF-6.4 Topic 3 Question 21 Discussion

Security profiles are a feature that allows FortiAP devices to apply various security functions to the wireless traffic, such as antivirus, web filter, application control, intrusion prevention, and botnet scanning. Security profiles can be enabled on both tunnel-mode and bridge-mode SSIDs, and can be applied either through the wireless controller configuration or through firewall policies on the FortiGate device. Security profiles can also inspect encrypted wireless traffic, as long as the FortiAP device has access to the encryption keys.

Security profiles on FortiAP devices can use FortiGate subscription services to inspect the traffic, such as FortiGuard Antivirus, FortiGuard Web Filter, FortiGuard Application Control, and FortiGuard IPS. This means that the FortiAP device can leverage the latest threat intelligence and updates from Fortinet to protect the wireless network from malicious or unwanted content.

Therefore, the correct answer is D. Security profiles on FortiAP devices can use FortiGate subscription to inspect the traffic.
