The rule engine loads the baseline data values from the profile database. The profile database contains historical data that is used for baselining calculations, such as minimum, maximum, average, standard deviation, and percentile values for various metrics.

The syntax that will register a collector to the supervisor is phProvisionCollector --add . This command will initiate the registration process between the collector and the supervisor, and exchange certificates and configuration information. The parameter is the IP address of the supervisor node.

The incident was auto cleared because within five minutes, the packet loss percentage dropped to a level where the host IP of the original rule matches the host IP of the clear condition pattern. The clear condition pattern specifies that if there is an event with a packet loss percentage less than or equal to 10% and a host IP that matches any host IP in this incident, then clear this incident.

The windows agent is not delivering event logs correctly because the agent is unmanaged, meaning it is not assigned to any organization or customer. The supervisor will drop the logs silently from unmanaged agents, as they are not associated with any valid license or CMDB.

To connect to a shared multi-tenant instance on FortiSOAR, the MSSP must install an agent node on the customer’s network. The agent node acts as a proxy between the customer’s devices and the FortiSOAR manager node. The agent node also performs data collection, enrichment, and normalization for the customer’s data sources. References: Fortinet NSE 7 - Advanced Analytics 6.3 Exam Description, page 11

The windows device is still in the CMDB, even though the administrator uninstalled the windows agent, because the device must be deleted manually from the CMDB. Uninstalling the windows agent does not automatically remove the device from the CMDB, as there may be other sources of data for the device, such as SNMP or syslog. To delete the device from the CMDB, the administrator must go to CMDB > Devices > All Devices, select the device, and click Delete.

You can invoke an integration policy on FortiSIEM rules by configuring the Notification Policy settings. You can select an integration policy from the drop-down list and specify the conditions for triggering it. For example, you can invoke an integration policy when an incident is created, updated, or closed. References: Fortinet NSE 7 - Advanced Analytics 6.3 Exam Description, page 9

The statements about collector communication with the FortiSIEM cluster that are true are:

• Collectors communicate periodically with the supervisor node. Collectors send heartbeat messages to the supervisor every 30 seconds to report their status and configuration.
• The supervisor periodically checks the health of the collector. The supervisor monitors the heartbeat messages from collectors and alerts if there is any issue with their connectivity or performance.
• Collectors upload event data to any node in the worker upload list, but report their health directly to the supervisor node. Collectors use a round-robin algorithm to distribute event data among worker nodes in the worker upload list, which is provided by the supervisor during registration. However, collectors only report their health and status to the supervisor node.

The disadvantage of automatic remediation is that it can make a disruptive change to a user, block access to an application, or disconnect critical systems from the network. Automatic remediation can have unintended consequences if not carefully planned and tested. Therefore, it is recommended to use manual or semi-automatic remediation for sensitive or critical systems.

If the Z-score for this rule is greater than or equal to three, it means that the rate of firewall connection is above the historical average value. The Z-score is a measure of how many standard deviations a value is away from the mean of a distribution. A Z-score of three or more indicates that the value is significantly higher than the mean, which implies an anomaly or deviation from normal behavior.
