What is a drawback of deploying a FortiWeb VM inside a virtual public cloud (VPC) compared to FortiWeb Cloud?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: D

VPC-Scoped Protection:

When deploying a FortiWeb VM inside a Virtual Private Cloud (VPC), the security and protection it offers are limited to the applications and traffic that pass through that specific VPC. This means that any applications outside this VPC will not benefit from the protection of FortiWeb VM (Option D).

Comparison with FortiWeb Cloud:

FortiWeb Cloud, being a cloud-native WAF-as-a-Service, can protect applications regardless of their VPC location, offering broader and more flexible protection capabilities.

Other Options Analysis:

Option A is incorrect because both FortiWeb VM and FortiWeb Cloud protect against OWASP Top 10 threats.

Option B is incorrect because FortiWeb VM does support zero-day protection.

Option C is incorrect as the performance of FortiWeb VM in applying advanced WAF protection is not inherently slower compared to FortiWeb Cloud.

But doesn't deploying in a VPC only protect applications going through the VPC? That could be a limitation too.

I agree with you, Tarra. FortiWeb Cloud probably has faster advanced WAF protection.

I think a drawback of deploying FortiWeb VM in a VPC is that it's slower than FortiWeb Cloud.

B seems off. Surely the FortiWeb VM can handle zero-day threats just as well as the cloud version, right? Or is it too busy playing catch-up?

Haha, I bet the developers who have to manage the VM are going to have a great time! At least it's not a physical appliance they have to maintain.

I think C is the right choice. The VM deployment is likely to be slower in applying advanced WAF protection compared to the cloud-based solution.

D is the correct answer. The FortiWeb VM in the VPC only protects applications going through the VPC, not all web traffic like FortiWeb Cloud.
