What Search page would help a threat hunter differentiate testing, DevOPs, or general user activity from adversary behavior?
Answer : D
User Search is a search page that allows a threat hunter to search for user activity across endpoints and correlate it with other events. This can help differentiate testing, DevOPs, or general user activity from adversary behavior by identifying anomalous or suspicious user actions, such as logging into multiple systems, running unusual commands, or accessing sensitive files.
Question 2
Which tool allows a threat hunter to populate and colorize all known adversary techniques in a single view?
Answer : D
MITRE ATT&CK Navigator is a tool that allows a threat hunter to populate and colorize all known adversary techniques in a single view. It is based on the MITRE ATT&CK framework, which is a knowledge base of adversary behaviors and tactics. The tool enables threat hunters to create custom matrices, layers, annotations, and filters to explore and model specific adversary techniques, with links to intelligence and case studies.
Question 3
When performing a raw event search via the Events search page, what are Event Actions?
Answer : C
When performing a raw event search via the Events search page, Event Actions are pivotable workflows that allow you to perform various tasks related to the event or the host. For example, you can connect to a host using Real Time Response, run pre-made event searches based on the event type or name, or pivot to other investigatory pages such as host search, hash search, etc. Event Actions do not contain audit information log, summary of actions taken by the Falcon sensor, or the event name defined in the Events Data Dictionary.
Question 4
The Process Timeline Events Details table will populate the Parent Process ID and the Parent File columns when the cloudable Event data contains which event field?
Answer : C
The ParentProcessld_decimal event field is what the Process Timeline Events Details table will populate the Parent Process ID and the Parent File columns with when the cloudable Event data contains it. The ParentProcessld_decimal event field is the decimal representation of the process identifier for the parent process of the target process. It can be used to trace the process ancestry and identify potential malicious activity. The ContextProcessld_decimal, RawProcessld_decimal, and RpcProcessld_decimal event fields are not used to populate the Parent Process ID and the Parent File columns.
Question 5
Which of the following is a suspicious process behavior?
Answer : D
Non-network processes are processes that are not expected to communicate over the network, such as notepad.exe. If they make an outbound network connection, it could indicate that they are compromised or maliciously used by an adversary. PowerShell running an execution policy of RemoteSigned is a default setting that allows local scripts to run without digital signatures. An Internet browser performing multiple DNS requests is a normal behavior for web browsing. PowerShell launching a PowerShell script is also a common behavior for legitimate tasks.
Question 6
What elements are required to properly execute a Process Timeline?
Answer : A
The Agent ID (AID) and the Target Process ID are the elements that are required to properly execute a Process Timeline. The Agent ID (AID) is a unique identifier for each host that has a Falcon sensor installed. The Target Process ID is the decimal representation of the process identifier for the process that you want to investigate. These two elements are used to query the cloud for the events related to the process on the host. The Agent ID (AID) only, the Hostname and Local Process ID, and the Target Process ID only are not sufficient to execute a Process Timeline.
Question 7
To view Files Written to Removable Media within a specified timeframe on a host within the Host Search page, expand and refer to the _______dashboard panel.
Answer : D
To view Files Written to Removable Media within a specified timeframe on a host within the Host Search page, you need to expand and refer to the Suspicious File Activity dashboard panel. The Suspicious File Activity dashboard panel shows information such as files written to removable media, files written to system directories by non-system processes, files written to startup folders, etc. The other dashboard panels do not show files written to removable media.
