This is an example of what type of Threat Intelligence?

3. Which of the following is a best practice when creating performant searches within Splunk?

4. Which of the following data sources would be most useful to determine if a user visited a recently identified malicious website?

5. Outlier detection is an analysis method that groups together data points into high density clusters.

Data points that fall outside of these high density clusters are considered to be what?

6. What is the first phase of the Continuous Monitoring cycle?

7. Rotating encryption keys after a security incident is most closely linked to which security concept?

8. An analyst would like to test how certain Splunk SPL commands work against a small set of data.

What command should start the search pipeline if they wanted to create their own data instead of utilizing data contained within Splunk?

9. Why is tstats more efficient than stats for large datasets?

10. Which argument searches only accelerated data in the Network Traffic Data Model with tstats?

11. An analyst is investigating a network alert for suspected lateral movement from one Windows host to another Windows host.

According to Splunk CIM documentation, the IP address of the host from which the attacker is moving would be in which field?

12. The field file_acl contains access controls associated with files affected by an event.

In which data model would an analyst find this field?

13. Which pre-packaged app delivers security content and detections on a regular, ongoing basis for Enterprise Security and SOAR?

14. An analyst learns that several types of data are being ingested into Splunk and Enterprise Security, and wants to use the metadata SPL command to list them in a search.

Which of the following arguments should she use?

15. 1.Which of the following is the primary benefit of using the CIM in Splunk?

16. Which of the following roles is commonly responsible for selecting and designing the infrastructure and tools that a security analyst utilizes to effectively complete their job duties?

17. Which of the following is a tactic used by attackers, rather than a technique?

18. Which field is automatically added to search results when assets are properly defined and enabled in Splunk Enterprise Security?

19. A Cyber Threat Intelligence (CTI) team produces a report detailing a specific threat actor’s typical behaviors and intent.

This would be an example of what type of intelligence?

20. What device typically sits at a network perimeter to detect command and control and other potentially suspicious traffic?

21. What Splunk feature would enable enriching public IP addresses with ASN and owner information?

22. When searching in Splunk, which of the following SPL commands can be used to run a subsearch across every field in a wildcard field list?

23. Enterprise Security has been configured to generate a Notable Event when a user has quickly authenticated from multiple locations between which travel would be impossible.

This would be considered what kind of an anomaly?

24. Which of the following data sources can be used to discover unusual communication within an organization’s network?

25. The following list contains examples of Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures (TTPs):

• Exploiting a remote service

• Extend movement

• Use EternalBlue to exploit a remote SMB server

In which order are they listed below?

26. Which of the Enterprise Security frameworks provides additional automatic context and correlation to fields that exist within raw data?

27. An analyst needs to create a new field at search time.

Which Splunk command will dynamically extract additional fields as part of a Search pipeline?

28. Which of the following use cases is best suited to be a Splunk SOAR Playbook?

29. Which of the following is considered Personal Data under GDPR?

30. After discovering some events that were missed in an initial investigation, an analyst determines this is because some events have an empty src field. Instead, the required data is often captured in another field called machine_name.

What SPL could they use to find all relevant events across either field until the field extraction is fixed?

31. A threat hunter generates a report containing the list of users who have logged in to a particular database during the last 6 months, along with the number of times they have each authenticated. They sort this list and remove any user names who have logged in more than 6 times. The remaining names represent the users who rarely log in, as their activity is more suspicious. The hunter examines each of these rare logins in detail.

This is an example of what type of threat-hunting technique?

32. An analyst is investigating the number of failed login attempts by IP address.

Which SPL command can be used to create a temporary table containing the number of failed login attempts by IP address over a specific time period?

33. While the top command is utilized to find the most common values contained within a field, a Cyber Defense Analyst hunts for anomalies.

Which of the following Splunk commands returns the least common values?

34. A Risk Rule generates events on Suspicious Cloud Share Activity and regularly contributes to confirmed incidents from Risk Notables. An analyst realizes the raw logs these events are generated from contain information which helps them determine what might be malicious.

What should they ask their engineer for to make their analysis easier?

35. What is the main difference between hypothesis-driven and data-driven Threat Hunting?

36. Which of the following is not considered an Indicator of Compromise (IOC)?

37. A Risk Notable Event has been triggered in Splunk Enterprise Security, an analyst investigates the alert, and determines it is a false positive.

What metric would be used to define the time between alert creation and close of the event?

38. Which metric would track improvements in analyst efficiency after dashboard customization?

39. In Splunk Enterprise Security, annotations can be added to enrich correlation search results with security framework mappings.

Which of the following security frameworks is not available as a default annotation option?

40. While investigating findings in Enterprise Security, an analyst has identified a compromised device.

Without leaving ES, what action could they take to run a sequence of containment activities on the compromised device that also updates the original finding?
