Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: A

Online activation of the tokens through the FortiGuard network is the most secure way of delivering FortiToken data once the token has been seeded because it eliminates the risk of seed files being compromised during transit or storage. The other methods involve physical or manual delivery of seed files which can be intercepted, lost, or stolen.

Automatic token generation using FortiAuthenticator? Now that's an interesting idea. Saves a lot of hassle, and it's probably pretty secure too. Definitely worth considering.

I hear you, but I'm not a fan of relying on an external network like that. I think the in-house token provisioning tool is the way to go. More control over the process, you know?

I'm not so sure about that. What if the envelope gets lost or stolen? Online activation through the FortiGuard network seems like a safer bet to me.

Hmm, this is a tricky one. I'd say option B is the most secure, shipping the seed files in a tamper-evident envelope. That way, you know if the data has been compromised during transit.
