NSE 7 – OT Security 6.4 — Question 19

An OT network architect must deploy a solution to protect fuel pumps in an industrial remote network. All the fuel pumps must be closely monitored from the corporate network for any temperature fluctuations.
How can the OT network architect achieve this goal?

Answer options

• A. Configure a fuel server on the remote network, and deploy a FortiSIEM with a single pattern temperature security rule on the corporate network.
• B. Configure a fuel server on the corporate network, and deploy a FortiSIEM with a single pattern temperature performance rule on the remote network.
• C. Configure a fuel server on the remote network, and deploy a FortiSIEM with a single pattern temperature performance rule on the corporate network.
• D. Configure both fuel server and FortiSIEM with a single-pattern temperature performance rule on the corporate network.

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because it involves placing the fuel server on the remote network, allowing for direct monitoring of the fuel pumps, while using FortiSIEM on the corporate network to analyze temperature performance. Option A is incorrect as it suggests placing the FortiSIEM on the corporate network with a security rule, which does not focus on performance monitoring. Option B incorrectly positions the fuel server on the corporate network, making it unable to monitor the remote pumps directly. Option D mistakenly implies that both the fuel server and FortiSIEM should be configured on the corporate network, which would not allow for monitoring the remote network effectively.
