Question 1 of 38

Refer to the exhibit.
Exam NSE5_FSM-5.2: Question 1 - Image 1
A FortiSIEM administrator wants to group some attributes for a report, but is not able to do so successfully.
As shown in the exhibit, why are some of the fields highlighted in red?
Answer

Suggested Answer

The suggested answer is B.

The fields highlighted in red indicate that there is an issue with those specific attributes. In this context, the attribute 'COUNT (Matched Events)' is an invalid expression, which is why it is highlighted. COUNT can be used in expressions or operations, but it must be correctly formatted and applicable within the report configuration. Other options do not explain the red highlighting correctly.

How was the FortiGate device discovered by FortiSIEM?
Answer

Suggested Answer

The suggested answer is D.

The FortiGate device was discovered by FortiSIEM through auto log discovery. This conclusion is drawn from the 'Method: LOG' indication in the exhibit. The absence of a version number implies that the discovery method did not use SNMP credentials, which aligns with auto log discovery rather than GUI log discovery or other methods.

If events are grouped by Reporting IP, Event Type, and user attributes in FortiSIEM, how many results will be displayed?

Which two FortiSIEM components work together to provide real-time event correlation?
Answer

Suggested Answer

The suggested answer is B.

The Supervisor and worker components work together to provide real-time event correlation in FortiSIEM. The Supervisor is responsible for the overall management, correlation, and analysis of data, while the worker nodes perform distributed data processing and initial correlation tasks.
