Questions 6

A security engineer notices that in the past week ingestion has spiked significantly. Upon investigating the anomaly, it is determined that a custom application developed in-house caused the spike. The custom application is sending syslog to the Broker VM Syslog Collector applet. The engineer consults with the SOC analyst, who determines that 90% of the logs from the custom application are not used.

What can the engineer configure to reduce the ingestion?

Options:

A.

Parsing rule to drop the unnecessary data at the Broker VM

B.

Data model rule to drop the unnecessary data

C.

Correlation rule on the Cortex XSIAM server to drop the unnecessary data

D.

Data model rule to map the useful data

Questions 10

A Cortex XSIAM engineer is preparing to install a new content pack and notices that there are several optional content packs associated with the main one that needs to be installed.

What must the engineer take into consideration when deciding whether or not to install the optional content packs?

Options:

A.

Mandatory dependencies required by the optional content packs are automatically included during installation. The engineer should consider the additional functionality and potential impact on system performance.

B.

The optional content packs without their associated dependencies are installed first, and then the main content pack installation is triggered. The engineer should ensure that the optional content packs do not conflict with existing configurations.

C.

Optional content packs are installed without any dependencies, as they are not necessary. The engineer should only install them if they require the additional features.

D.

Only the selected optional content packs are installed, without including any additional dependencies. The engineer should manually check for any required dependencies.

Questions 13

What is a key characteristic of a parsing rule in Cortex XSIAM?

Options:

A.

It uses regular expressions exclusively for data modifications, discards unmatched logs by default, and only retains fields with non-null values.

B.

It is bound to all vendors and products, performs data parsing once per log, and does not allow grouping.

C.

It is bound to a specific vendor and product, performs data parsing once per log, and does not allow grouping.

D.

It is bound to a specific vendor and product which allow grouping with a no-match policy, and retains all fields.

Questions 14

A Cortex XSIAM engineer is implementing role-based access control (RBAC) and scope-based access control (SBAC) for users accessing the Cortex XSIAM tenant with the following requirements:

Users managing machines in Europe should be able to manage and control all endpoints and installations, create profiles and policies, view alerts, and initiate Live Terminal, but only for endpoints in the Europe region.

Users managing machines in Europe should not be able to create, modify, or delete new or existing user roles.

The Europe region endpoints are identified by both of the following:

Endpoint Tag = "Europe-Servers" and Endpoint Group = "Europe" for servers in Europe

Endpoint Group = "Europe" and Endpoint Tag = "Europe-Workstation" for workstations in Europe

Which two sets of implementation actions should the engineer take? (Choose two.)

Options:

A.

Verify and confirm that SBAC mode under "Server Settings" is set to "Restrictive," and assign "EG:Europe" under the user permission scope configuration.

B.

Use the pre-defined roles, assign the "Instance Administrator" role to the user or user group managing Europe-based endpoints.

C.

Verify and confirm that SBAC mode under "Server Settings" is set to "Permissive," and assign "EG:Europe" under the user permission scope configuration.

D.

Use the pre-defined roles, assign the "Privileged IT Admin" role to the user or user group managing Europe-based endpoints.

Questions 15

A Behavioral Threat Protection (BTP) alert is triggered with an action of "Prevented (Blocked)" on one of several application servers running Windows Server 2022. The investigation determines the involved processes to be legitimate core OS binaries, and the description from the triggered BTP rule is an acceptable risk for the company to allow the same activity in the future.

This type of activity is only expected on the endpoints that are members of the endpoint group "AppServers," which already has a separate prevention policy rule with an exceptions profile named "Exceptions-AppServers" and a malware profile named "Malware-AppServers."

The CGO that was terminated has the following properties:

SHA256: eb71ea69dd19f728ab9240565e8c7efb59821e19e3788e289301e1e74940c208

File path: C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe

Digital Signer: Microsoft Corporation

How should the exception be created so that it is scoped as narrowly as possible to minimize the security gap?

Options:

A.

Create the exception via the alert itself, selecting the CGO hash, CGO signer, CGO process path, and applying the scope to the "Exceptions-AppServers" profile.

B.

Create a Disable Prevention Rule via Exceptions Configuration with the following selections:

C.

Create a Legacy Agent Exception via Exceptions Configuration with the following selections:

D.

Create the exception via the alert itself, selecting the CGO hash, CGO signer, CGO process path, and applying the scope to "Global."
