[QUOTE="ForgottenSeer 58943, post: 740818"] One must keep in mind, FortiClient is largely configured out of the box to cause the least problems in enterprise environments with the FGT and FSB doing the heavy lifting. If you want to test it stand alone I would advise some basic changes. <heuristic_scanning> <level>0</level> I'd put that at 2 or 3. Since it defaults to off. <use_extreme_db>0</use_extreme_db> Defaults to 0, by default it uses the normal database for the most relevant threats. Extended for slightly aged threats, and extreme for all of the databases combined and Zoo threats. One should toggle this to 1 rather than 0. <use_sandbox_signatures>0</use_sandbox_signatures> Defaults to 0 which is off. When toggled to 1 it will pull down the newest, most relevant emerging threats from the global FSB databases which are the combined horsepower of all deployed FortiSandboxes and the signatures those are generating. The reason these are all essentially off out of the box is because they could theoretically offer false positives and other issues in an complex enterprise environment so it's up to the administrator to decide, then test, and adjust if necessary. I'd strongly encourage these to be enabled for a better picture of overall detection levels. Once the settings to the CONF are made, one should reboot the system afterward. [/QUOTE]
