What are three key features of FortiAuthenticator? (Choose three.)

FortiAuthenticator is a centralized identity and access management solution within the Fortinet Security Fabric. Its three primary functions are:

1. Identity Management: It serves as a central point for managing user identities, providing authentication, authorization, and accounting (AAA) services. It integrates with various directories like LDAP and Active Directory and supports numerous authentication methods, including two-factor authentication with FortiTokens.

2. Portal Services: It offers customizable captive portals for various use cases, including guest management, social Wi-Fi logins, and user self-service for password resets or device registration.

3. Certificate Authority (CA): It can function as a local CA to issue, manage, and validate digital certificates for users and devices, which is critical for secure network access methods like 802.1X EAP-TLS and VPNs.

D. Log server: FortiAuthenticator generates logs for its own events but is not designed as a primary log aggregation and analysis server like FortiAnalyzer.

E. RSSO server: While FortiAuthenticator can function as a RADIUS Single Sign-On (RSSO) server, this is a specific SSO feature. The chosen options represent broader, more fundamental capabilities of the platform.
