In this Ironwood Public Schools case that is not the failing component. Here the correct intervention is to attach the approved application control profile to the actual matching permit rule because applications are not blocked by an unattached profile simply because it exists in the FortiGate configuration.

Review the signature's protected-client or protected-server direction and matching service context is a relevant remedy for a DIFFERENT problem—ips signature directionality—when a test flow bypasses an IPS rule because its signature is configured for the opposite traffic direction. In this Ironwood Public Schools case that is not the failing component. Here the correct intervention is to attach the approved application control profile to the actual matching permit rule because applications are not blocked by an unattached profile simply because it exists in the FortiGate configuration.

Known-malware detection depends on current scan signatures in the chosen security profile explains a different situation, antivirus signature currency, where a branch detects older test files but misses a newer known sample because its AV signatures have not updated.
