A threat hunter executed a hunt based on the following hypothesis:As an actor, I want to plant rundll32 for proxy execution of malicious code and leverage Cobalt Strike for Command and Control.Relevant logs and artifacts such as Sysmon, netflow, IDS alerts, and EDR logs were searched, and the hunter is confident in the conclusion that Cobalt Strike is not present in the company’s environment.Which of the following best describes the outcome of this threat hunt?

An analyst notices that one of their servers is sending an unusually large amount of traffic, gigabytes more than normal, to a single system on the Internet. There doesn’t seem to be any associated increase in incoming traffic.What type of threat actor activity might this represent?

In which phase of the Continuous Monitoring cycle are suggestions and improvements typically made?

An analyst is not sure that all of the potential data sources at her company are being correctly or completely utilized by Splunk and Enterprise Security. Which of the following might she suggest using, in order to perform an analysis of the data types available and some of their potential security uses?

During their shift, an analyst receives an alert about an executable being run from C:\Windows\Temp. Why should this be investigated further?

An analyst would like to visualize threat objects across their environment and chronological risk events for a Risk Object in Incident Review. Where would they find this?

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?

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

Upon investigating a report of a web server becoming unavailable, the security analyst finds that the web server’s access log has the same log entry millions of times:147.186.119.200 - - [28/Jul/2023:12:04:13 -0300] "GET /login/ HTTP/1.0" 200 3733What kind of attack is occurring?

According to David Bianco's Pyramid of Pain, which indicator type is least effective when used in continuous monitoring?

An analysis of an organization’s security posture determined that a particular asset is at risk and a new process or solution should be implemented to protect it. Typically, who would be in charge of implementing the new process or solution that was selected?

Which of the following is a correct Splunk search that will return results in the most performant way?

There are many resources for assisting with SPL and configuration questions. Which of the following resources feature community-sourced answers?

A successful Continuous Monitoring initiative involves the entire organization. When an analyst discovers the need for more context or additional information, perhaps from additional data sources or altered correlation rules, to what role would this request generally escalate?

Splunk Enterprise Security has numerous frameworks to create correlations, integrate threat intelligence, and provide a workflow for investigations. Which framework raises the threat profile of individuals or assets to allow identification of people or devices that perform an unusual amount of suspicious activities?

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?

The Lockheed Martin Cyber Kill Chain® breaks an attack lifecycle into several stages. A threat actor modified the registry on a compromised Windows system to ensure that their malware would automatically run at boot time. Into which phase of the Kill Chain would this fall?

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?

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?

An organization is using Risk-Based Alerting (RBA). During the past few days, a user account generated multiple risk observations. Splunk refers to this account as what type of entity?

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?

How are Notable Events configured in Splunk Enterprise Security?
