Question 760
During a FortiAnalyzer incident review, the team observes: A global company needs an automatically generated security summary every Monday morning, but analysts manually press Run each week. Which ongoing safeguard best addresses the original risk?
Explanation
Correct Answer
Review schedules and timezone after infrastructure migrations. This long-term control addresses the recurring risk. The technical reason is: Scheduled reports run according to configured timing without needing interactive generation each cycle. A later acceptance test still needs to confirm: A test scheduled run appears in report task history at the agreed time.
Incorrect Answers
This safeguard, “Maintain a signed-off report template checklist before recurring publication”, reduces a different source-defined risk: A monthly board report should contain a cover page, executive narrative, threat table, and one chart, but only raw SQL output is currently available. That risk depends on: The report editor composes presentation elements and dataset-backed objects into a generated document. The recurring problem here is a global company needs an automatically generated security summary every Monday morning, but analysts manually press Run each week. The originally selected control “Review schedules and timezone after infrastructure migrations” is more specific because scheduled reports run according to configured timing without needing interactive generation each cycle.
This safeguard, “Review report-group ownership and membership during reorganizations”, reduces a different source-defined risk: A team maintains two similar FortiAnalyzer reports and wants to group their schedule and governance without accidentally merging their source data. That risk depends on: Report organization controls how report artifacts are managed but does not necessarily change their underlying query populations. The recurring problem here is a global company needs an automatically generated security summary every Monday morning, but analysts manually press Run each week. The originally selected control “Review schedules and timezone after infrastructure migrations” is more specific because scheduled reports run according to configured timing without needing interactive generation each cycle.
This safeguard, “Revalidate report subnet filters after branch renumbering”, reduces a different source-defined risk: A subsidiary requests a report for one internal CIDR range, but the report includes external and neighboring subsidiary traffic because subnet filtering is disabled. That risk depends on: Report subnet selection constrains eligible source or destination records according to the configured filter semantics. The recurring problem here is a global company needs an automatically generated security summary every Monday morning, but analysts manually press Run each week. The originally selected control “Review schedules and timezone after infrastructure migrations” is more specific because scheduled reports run according to configured timing without needing interactive generation each cycle.
