FortiClient
FortiClient 5.4 and earlier versions can silently connect to FortiSandbox without the need to be authorized. You can de-authorize a FortiClient host manually. If a FortiClient endpoint is managed by EMS, it follows the authorization status and file submission speed setting of EMS. You can manually change these settings.
For information on how to configure FortiClient to send files to FortiSandbox, see the FortiClient Administration Guide in the Fortinet Document Library.
To view connected FortiClient endpoints in FortiSandbox, go to Security Fabric > FortiClient.
