What is the expected result of this configuration setting?
- A . When machine learning (ML) is in its collecting phase, FortiWeb will accept an unlimited number of samples from the same source IP address.
- B . When machine learning (ML) is in its running phase, FortiWeb will accept an unlimited number of samples from the same source IP address.
- C . When machine learning (ML) is in its collecting phase, FortiWeb will not accept any samples from any source IP addresses.

- A . It keeps a complete backup of all files and the database.
- B . It keeps hashes of files and periodically compares them to the server.
- C . It keeps full copies of all files and directories.
- D . It keeps a live duplicate of the database.
B
Explanation:

Refer to the exhibit.
FortiWeb is configured to block traffic from Japan to your web application server. However, in the logs, the administrator is seeing traffic allowed from one particular IP address which is geo-located in Japan.
What can the administrator do to solve this problem? (Choose two.)
- A . Manually update the geo-location IP addresses for Japan.
- B . If the IP address is configured as a geo reputation exception, remove it.
- C . Configure the IP address as a blacklisted IP address.
- D . If the IP address is configured as an IP reputation exception, remove it.
CB
Explanation:
IP reputation leverages many techniques for accurate, early, and frequently updated identification of compromised and malicious clients so you can block attackers before they target your servers.
IP blacklisting is a method used to filter out illegitimate or malicious IP addresses from accessing your networks. Blacklists are lists containing ranges of or individual IP addresses that you want to block.

When is it possible to use a self-signed certificate, rather than one purchased from a commercial certificate authority?
- A . If you are a small business or home office
- B . If you are an enterprise whose employees use only mobile devices
- C . If you are an enterprise whose resources do not need security
- D . If you are an enterprise whose computers all trust your active directory or other CA server
D
Explanation:
This can include SSL/TLS certificates, code signing certificates, and S/MIME certificates. The reason why they’re considered different from traditional certificate-authority signed certificates is that they’re created, issued, and signed by the company or developer who is responsible for the website or software being signed. This is why self-signed certificates are considered unsafe for public-facing websites and applications.

True transparent proxy mode is best suited for use in which type of environment?
- A . New networks where infrastructure is not yet defined
- B . Flexible environments where you can easily change the IP addressing scheme
- C . Small office to home office environments
- D . Environments where you cannot change the IP addressing scheme
B
Explanation:
Does not require changes to the IP address scheme of the network. Requests are destined for a web server and not the FortiWeb appliance. This operation mode supports the same feature set as True Transparent Proxy mode.
