5.1 Ensure that WildFire file size upload limits are maximized

Information

Increase WildFire file size limits to the maximum file size supported by the environment. An organization with bandwidth constraints or heavy usage of unique files under a supported file type may require lower settings.
Rationale:
Increasing file size limits allows the devices to forward more files for WildFire analysis. This increases the chances of identifying, and later preventing, threats in larger files.

NOTE: Nessus has provided the target output to assist in reviewing the benchmark to ensure target compliance.

Solution

Navigate to Device > Setup > WildFire.
Click the General Settings edit icon.
Set the maximum size for each file type.
Default Value:
Not Configured
