Match the FortiSIEM device type to its description.

Collector 2. Worker 3. Supervisor 4. Agent

The FortiSIEM 7.3 architecture is built upon a distributed multi-tenant model consisting of several distinct functional roles to ensure scalability and performance:

Supervisor: This is the primary management node in a FortiSIEM cluster. It hosts the Graphical User Interface (GUI), the Configuration Management Database (CMDB), and manages the overall system configurations, reporting, and dashboarding.

Worker: These nodes are responsible for the heavy lifting of data processing. They execute real-time event correlation against the rules engine, perform historical search queries, and handle the analytics workload to ensure the Supervisor node is not overwhelmed.

Collector: Collectors are typically deployed at remote sites or different network segments to offload log collection from the central cluster. They receive logs via Syslog, SNMP, or WMI, compress the data, and securely forward it to the Workers or Supervisor. They also perform performance monitoring of local devices.

Agent: These are lightweight software components installed directly on endpoints (Windows/Linux). Their primary role is to collect local endpoint logs, monitor file integrity (system changes), and track user activity that cannot be captured via traditional network-based logging.
