WHAT IT DOES

What create_security_profile_group does on Fortimanager

AI agents use create_security_profile_group to create or update resources in Fortimanager, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Fortimanager environment.

RISK

Why create_security_profile_group is rated Medium

This tool creates a new security profile group in FortiManager, which is a Write operation (reversible creation of data). The severity is high because misconfiguration or creation of unintended security profiles could impact network security posture, affect multiple devices, or require administrative intervention to remediate.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'create_security_profile_group' indicates creation of a new security profile group resource. The 'create' verb and context of security configuration management on FortiManager imply reversible data modification.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs create_security_profile_group safely

create_security_profile_group Rate-limited

create_security_profile_group stays usable, but capped: an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
