FCP – FortiGate Administrator 7.4 — Question 30

Which three statements explain a flow-based antivirus profile? (Choose three.)

Answer options

• A. Flow-based inspection uses a hybrid of the scanning modes available in proxy-based inspection.
• B. Flow-based inspection optimizes performance compared to proxy-based inspection.
• C. FortiGate buffers the whole file but transmits to the client at the same time.
• D. If a virus is detected, the last packet is delivered to the client.
• E. The IPS engine handles the process as a standalone.

Correct answer: A, B, C

Explanation

The correct answers A, B, and C reflect the benefits and functioning of flow-based antivirus profiles, emphasizing performance and how files are handled. Options D and E are incorrect because they do not accurately describe flow-based inspection's characteristics; specifically, D misrepresents the response to detected viruses, and E suggests a separation of processes that does not align with flow-based inspection's operations.
