Hello to all,

I would like to secure a bit more our traffic from Clients to internal Servers.
What are your recommendations with applying security profiles between clients and servers.
We have restricted only certain ports etc but would like to implement Security Profiles as well.
Can't seem to find something on these topics.

Also topics for security profiles differences for clients and for servers specficily for outside access to internet

Hello

As you already restricted only the required ports, you can just add the default profiles (AV, App, IPS, SSL cert inspection), they are good profiles for general usage.

Have a look at the FG security study guide for NSE4, it contains what you need to understand on security profiles.
