Fortinet 622 FortiWeb 5.0 Patch 6 Administration Guide
Figure 80:Disabling unnecessary server information disclosure signatures in Web Protection >
Known Attacks > Signatures
The Information Disclosure feature can potentially require the FortiWeb appliance to rewrite the
header of every request from a server, resulting in reduced performance. Fortinet
recommends enabling this feature only to help you identify information disclosu re through
logging, and until you can reconfigure the server to omit such sensitive information. Clear the
All / None check box to disable the feature.
• If you use the web anti-defacement feature, tune your configuration to avoid backing up
overly large files. See Figure 81 and “Anti-defacement” on page 498.

Unless you need to back up large files, reduce the setting for the Skip Files Larger Than option
from the default of 10 240 KB.
Use the Skip Files With These Extensions option to exclude specific types of large files, such as
compressed files and video clips.
