Which Type of IOC can you define in Cortex XDR?

  1. destination port
  2. e-mail address
  3. full path
  4. App-ID

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

Cortex XDR allows you to define IOCs based on various criteria, such as file hashes, registry keys, IP addresses, domain names, and full paths. A full path IOC is a specific location of a file or folder on an endpoint, such as C:\Windows\System32\calc.exe. You can use full path IOCs to detect and respond to malicious files or folders that are located in known locations on your endpoints12. Let's briefly discuss the other options to provide a comprehensive explanation:
A) destination port: This is not the correct answer. Destination port is not a type of IOC that you can define in Cortex XDR. Destination port is a network attribute that indicates the port number to which a packet is sent. Cortex XDR does not support defining IOCs based on destination ports, but you can use XQL queries to filter network events by destination ports3. B) e-mail address: This is not the correct answer. E-mail address is not a type of IOC that you can define in Cortex XDR. E-mail address is an identifier that is used to send and receive e-mails. Cortex XDR does not support defining IOCs based on e-mail addresses, but you can use the Cortex XDR - IOC integration with Cortex XSOAR to ingest IOCs from various sources, including e-mail addresses4. D) App-ID: This is not the correct answer. App-ID is not a type of IOC that you can define in Cortex XDR. App-ID is a feature of Palo Alto Networks firewalls that identifies and controls applications on the network. Cortex XDR does not support defining IOCs based on App-IDs, but you can use the Cortex XDR Analytics app to create custom rules that use App-IDs as part of the rule logic5. In conclusion, full path is the type of IOC that you can define in Cortex XDR. By using full path IOCs, you can enhance your detection and response capabilities and protect your endpoints from malicious files or folders.

When viewing the incident directly, what is the "assigned to" field value of a new Incident that was just reported to Cortex?

  1. Pending
  2. It is blank
  3. Unassigned
  4. New

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

The "assigned to" field value of a new incident that was just reported to Cortex is "Unassigned". This means that the incident has not been assigned to any analyst or group yet, and it is waiting for someone to take ownership of it. The "assigned to" field is one of the default fields that are displayed in the incident layout, and it can be used to filter and sort incidents in the incident list. The "assigned to" field can be changed manually by an analyst, or automatically by a playbook or a rule12. Let's briefly discuss the other options to provide a comprehensive explanation:
A) Pending: This is not the correct answer. Pending is not a valid value for the "assigned to" field. Pending is a possible value for the "status" field, which indicates the current state of the incident. The status field can have values such as "New", "Active", "Done", "Closed", or "Pending"3. B) It is blank: This is not the correct answer. The "assigned to" field is never blank for any incident. It always has a default value of "Unassigned" for new incidents, unless a playbook or a rule assigns it to a specific analyst or group12.
D) New: This is not the correct answer. New is not a valid value for the "assigned to" field. New is a possible value for the "status" field, which indicates the current state of the incident. The status field can have values such as "New", "Active", "Done", "Closed", or "Pending"3. In conclusion, the "assigned to" field value of a new incident that was just reported to Cortex is "Unassigned". This field can be used to manage the ownership and responsibility of incidents, and it can be changed manually or automatically.

In incident-related widgets, how would you filter the display to only show incidents that were "starred"?

  1. Create a custom XQL widget
  2. This is not currently supported
  3. Create a custom report and filter on starred incidents
  4. Click the star in the widget

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

To filter the display to only show incidents that were "starred", you need to click the star in the widget. This will apply a filter that shows only the incidents that contain a starred alert, which is an alert that matches a specific condition that you define in the incident starring configuration. You can use the incident starring feature to prioritize and focus on the most important or relevant incidents in your environment1.
Let's briefly discuss the other options to provide a comprehensive explanation:
A) Create a custom XQL widget: This is not the correct answer. Creating a custom XQL widget is not necessary to filter the display to only show starred incidents. A custom XQL widget is a widget that you create by using the XQL query language to define the data source and the visualization type. You can use custom XQL widgets to create your own dashboards or reports, but they are not required for filtering incidents by stars2.
B) This is not currently supported: This is not the correct answer. Filtering the display to only show starred incidents is currently supported by Cortex XDR. You can use the star icon in the widget to apply this filter, or you can use the Filter Builder to create a custom filter based on the Starred field1. C) Create a custom report and filter on starred incidents: This is not the correct answer. Creating a custom report and filtering on starred incidents is not the only way to filter the display to only show starred incidents. A custom report is a report that you create by using the Report Builder to define the data source, the layout, and the schedule. You can use custom reports to generate and share periodic reports on your Cortex XDR data, but they are not the only option for filtering incidents by stars3.

In conclusion, clicking the star in the widget is the simplest and easiest way to filter the display to only show incidents that were "starred". By using this feature, you can quickly identify and focus on the most critical or relevant incidents in your environment.

Where would you view the WildFire report in an incident?

  1. next to relevant Key Artifacts in the incidents details page
  2. under Response --> Action Center
  3. under the gear icon --> Agent Audit Logs
  4. on the HUB page at apps.paloaltonetworks.com

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

To view the WildFire report in an incident, you need to go to the incident details page and look for the relevant key artifacts that are related to the WildFire analysis. A key artifact is a piece of evidence that is associated with an alert or an incident, such as a file hash, a registry key, an IP address, a domain name, or a full path. If a key artifact is related to a WildFire analysis, you will see a WildFire icon next to it, indicating that there is a WildFire report available for that artifact. You can click on the WildFire icon to view the report, which will show you the detailed information about the artifact, such as the verdict, the behavior, the severity, the signatures, and the screenshots12. Let's briefly discuss the other options to provide a comprehensive explanation:
B) under Response --> Action Center: This is not the correct answer. The Action Center is a feature that allows you to create and manage actions that you can perform on your endpoints, such as isolating, scanning, collecting files, or executing scripts. The Action Center does not show you the WildFire reports for the incidents, but it can help you to remediate the incidents by applying the appropriate actions3.
C) under the gear icon --> Agent Audit Logs: This is not the correct answer. The Agent Audit Logs are logs that show you the activities and events that occurred on the Cortex XDR agents, such as installation, upgrade, connection, policy update, or prevention. The Agent Audit Logs do not show you the WildFire reports for the incidents, but they can help you to troubleshoot the agent issues or verify the agent status4.
D) on the HUB page at apps.paloaltonetworks.com: This is not the correct answer. The HUB page is a web portal that allows you to access and manage your Palo Alto Networks applications, such as Cortex XDR, Cortex XSOAR, Prisma Cloud, or AutoFocus. The HUB page does not show you the WildFire reports for the incidents, but it can help you to navigate to the different applications or view the notifications and alerts5.
In conclusion, to view the WildFire report in an incident, you need to go to the incident details page and look for the relevant key artifacts that are related to the WildFire analysis. By viewing the WildFire report, you can gain more insights and context about the incident and the artifact.
