<p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-top: 12pt; margin-bottom: 12pt;">[size= 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap]Spending real time on event status interpretation was the biggest thing that helped. I kept mixing up what "handled" actually meant versus whether something was classified as malicious versus whether the user was even able to launch the file in the first place; these all sound related, but they're separate facts about an event, and questions expect you to pull them apart correctly from a single exhibit. Once I stopped treating event status as one blob of information and started reading each field separately, that section got a lot easier.[/size]

There was a scenario with a specific collector in a Finance group, and I had to figure out the right way to block an application for that group without accidentally affecting other groups. It's not hard once you understand how policies attach to collector groups, but if you've mostly worked with FortiEDR in a smaller environment with one policy for everyone, that distinction isn't something you'd naturally think about.[/size]

There was a question about a user getting an unauthorized error, and the fix wasn't in the usual places you'd check first; it came down to role assignment on the account. That's not something I would have gotten right without deliberately reviewing API access and permissions separately from general console administration.[/size]

Reading a screenshot of policy logs or event details and pulling the right conclusion out of it is a different skill than knowing the concept in isolation, so I made sure to slow down and practice actually reading exhibits carefully instead of skimming them.[/size]
