Question 640
At Harborview Aviation, the FortiGate 7.6 security administration team encounters the following authorized operational case: a business-critical approved portal is classified under a FortiGuard category the organization normally blocks. They need a defensible FortiOS configuration, diagnosis, validation or prevention decision. Which recurring review is most relevant to the same root risk?
Explanation
Correct Answer
Review category overrides for ownership and expiry. This recurring practice addresses web filter category override because global category blocking can affect legitimate sites when ratings do not reflect the business exception. It reinforces the supported change to apply a narrowly scoped verified rating override or specific authorized URL exception rather than relying on an unrelated periodic audit.

Review custom signature behavior after application protocol upgrades reduces recurrence of custom application signature review, rather than the observed web filter category override issue. The relevant preventive control for Harborview Aviation is: Review category overrides for ownership and expiry. This distinction matters because global category blocking can affect legitimate sites when ratings do not reflect the business exception.
