Exam FCP_WCS_AD-7.4 topic 1 question 30 discussion

a. The DNS name for the application servers must point to FortiWeb Cloud. For traffic to pass through FortiWeb Cloud for inspection and protection, the DNS record for the application must point to the FortiWeb Cloud endpoint. This ensures that all incoming traffic is filtered by FortiWeb Cloud before reaching the application servers. b. FortiWeb Cloud filters the incoming traffic from users, blocking the OWASP Top 10 attacks, zero-day threats, and other application layer attacks. FortiWeb Cloud provides web application firewall (WAF) protection by filtering traffic and blocking threats like the OWASP Top 10, zero-day attacks, and other application layer vulnerabilities before forwarding clean traffic to the application servers. The other options are incorrect: c. FortiWeb Cloud can protect application servers regardless of their location, as long as the traffic is routed through it. The servers do not need to be in the same VPC. d. Step 2 involves threat filtering and load balancing, and does not require an AWS S3 bucket.

A, B are correct DNS Configuration: For FortiWeb Cloud to effectively protect web applications, the DNS records for the application servers must be configured to point to FortiWeb Cloud. This ensures that all incoming traffic is routed through FortiWeb Cloud for inspection and protection (Option A). Traffic Filtering: FortiWeb Cloud provides robust protection by filtering incoming traffic to block the OWASP Top 10 attacks, zero-day threats, and other application layer attacks. This ensures the security and integrity of the web applications it protects (Option B). Other Options Analysis: Option C is incorrect because FortiWeb Cloud can protect application servers across different VPCs or regions, not just within the same VPC. Option D is incorrect because step 2 does not require an AWS S3 bucket; it refers to the inspection and filtering of incoming traffic.
