What action does an on-premises reputation server take when it receives a hash request that is not found in its local database? (Choose one answer)

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: C

The correct answer is C.

The FortiEDR 7.0.0 Administration Guide states that for on-premises deployments, the on-premise reputation service requests missing hashes from the cloud reputation service. If a proxy is not enabled, it requests the missing hashes from the cloud reputation service through the manager nginx. If a proxy is enabled, the on-premises reputation service requests the missing hashes through the proxy.

So, when the local reputation database does not contain the requested hash, the on-premises reputation server does not ignore the request, wait for endpoint input, or automatically block the application. It queries the cloud reputation service for the missing hash reputation data.

B could work too, but it feels a bit slow.

Wait, are we sure about C? What if the cloud is down?

A seems like a bad idea. Ignoring requests? No way!

I think D sounds too aggressive. Can't just block unknown apps!

C is the right choice! It requests missing hashes from the cloud.

I’m leaning towards option C, but I’m a bit confused because I thought it might ignore them instead.

I feel like the server should automatically block unknown hashes, but that seems too aggressive.

I remember a practice question about how reputation servers handle unknown hashes, and I think it was about storing them locally.

I think the server might request the missing hashes from the cloud service, but I'm not entirely sure.
