What is the recommended log retention period for compliance?

There is no universal answer - it depends on your industry regulations (e.g., PCI DSS requires 1 year, HIPAA may require 6 years). FortiAnalyzer allows per-device or per-log-type retention policies. A common baseline is 90 days for active logs and 1 year for archived logs.

यह प्रमाणन करियर के द्वार क्यों खोलता है

In real-world operations, FortiAnalyzer is the central nervous system for log aggregation and forensic analysis. Misconfiguring log storage can lead to data loss during an incident, while poor high-availability setup can create blind spots in your security posture. Mastering these topics means you can ensure compliance with data retention regulations, reduce mean time to detect (MTTD) through effective FortiView dashboards, and generate reports that actually drive remediation. This practice test directly translates to fewer operational outages, faster incident response, and defensible audit trails.

अक्सर पूछे जाने वाले प्रश्न

What is the difference between FortiView and standard log search in FortiAnalyzer?

FortiView provides pre-built, real-time dashboards and widgets for high-level visibility into traffic, threats, and events without writing SQL-like queries. Standard log search is more granular and allows custom filters for forensic analysis. FortiView is for operational monitoring; log search is for deep investigation.

How many devices can a single FortiAnalyzer HA cluster support?

The supported device count depends on the model and license tier, not just the HA configuration. For example, a FortiAnalyzer 400G HA cluster can support up to 2,000 devices, while lower-end models support fewer. Always check the latest FortiAnalyzer datasheet for specific limits.

Can I use FortiAnalyzer without a FortiGate?

Yes, FortiAnalyzer can collect logs from any syslog-compatible device, but its advanced features (like FortiView and automated correlation) are optimized for Fortinet devices. For non-Fortinet devices, you may lose some parsing and reporting capabilities.

What happens to logs if the primary FortiAnalyzer in an HA pair fails?

If configured with active-passive HA, the secondary unit takes over log ingestion and reporting. Logs buffered on devices during the failover are typically retransmitted once the new primary is online. Ensure heartbeat and replication links are properly configured to minimize data loss.

How do I choose between local and remote log storage on FortiAnalyzer?

Local storage is faster and simpler for single-site deployments. Remote storage (e.g., NFS, Amazon S3) is recommended for long-term archival, compliance, or when local disk space is limited. Consider network bandwidth and latency when using remote storage.
