Which statement is true about FortiClient EMS in a ZTNA deployment?

In a ZTNA (Zero Trust Network Access) deployment, FortiClient EMS:

A. Uses endpoint information to grant or deny access to the network: FortiClient EMS plays a critical role in ZTNA by using information about the endpoint, such as its security posture and compliance status, to determine whether to grant or deny network access.

The other options do not accurately represent the role of FortiClient EMS in ZTNA:

B. Provides network and user identity authentication services: While it contributes to the overall ZTNA strategy, FortiClient EMS itself does not directly provide authentication services.

C. Generates and installs client certificates on managed endpoints: Certificate management is typically handled by other components in the ZTNA framework.

D. Acts as ZTNA access proxy for managed endpoints: FortiClient EMS does not function as an access proxy; its role is more aligned with endpoint management and policy enforcement.
