Splunk user account(s) with which roles must be created to configure Phantom with an external

Splunk Enterprise instance?

  1. superuser, administrator
  2. phantomcreate. phantomedit
  3. phantomsearch, phantomdelete
  4. admin,user

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

When configuring Splunk Phantom to integrate with an external Splunk Enterprise instance, it is typically required to have user accounts with sufficient privileges to access data and perform necessary actions. The roles of "superuser" and "administrator" in Splunk provide the broad set of permissions needed for such integration, enabling comprehensive access to data, management capabilities, and the execution of searches or actions that Phantom may require as part of its automated playbooks or investigations.



Phantom supports multiple user authentication methods such as LDAP and SAML2.
What other user authentication method is supported?

  1. SAML3
  2. PIV/CAC
  3. Biometrics
  4. OpenID

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

Splunk SOAR supports multiple user authentication methods to ensure secure access to the platform. Apart from LDAP (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol) and SAML2 (Security Assertion Markup Language 2.0), SOAR also supports PIV (Personal Identity Verification) and CAC (Common Access Card) as authentication methods. These are particularly used in government and military organizations for secure and authenticated access to systems, providing a high level of security through physical tokens or cards that contain encrypted user credentials.



During a second test of a playbook, a user receives an error that states: 'an empty parameters list was passed to phantom.act()." What does this indicate?

  1. The container has artifacts not parameters.
  2. The playbook is using an incorrect container.
  3. The playbook debugger's scope is set to new.
  4. The playbook debugger's scope is set to all.

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

The error message "an empty parameters list was passed to phantom.act()" typically indicates that the action being called by the playbook does not have the required parameters to execute. This can happen if the playbook expects certain data to be present in the container's artifacts but finds none. Artifacts in Splunk SOAR (Phantom) are data elements associated with a container (such as an event or alert) that playbooks can act upon. If a playbook action is designed to use data from artifacts as parameters and those artifacts are missing or do not contain the expected data, the playbook cannot execute the action properly, leading to this error.



What does a user need to do to have a container with an event from Splunk use context-aware actions designed for notable events?

  1. Include the notable event's event_id field and set the artifacts label to aplunk notable event id.
  2. Rename the event_id field from the notable event to splunkNotableEventld.
  3. Include the event_id field in the search results and add a CEF definition to Phantom for event_id, datatype splunk notable event id.
  4. Add a custom field to the container named event_id and set the custom field's data type to splunk notable event id.

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

For a container in Splunk SOAR to utilize context-aware actions designed for notable events from Splunk, it is crucial to ensure that the notable event's unique identifier (event_id) is included in the search results pulled into SOAR. Moreover, by adding a Common Event Format (CEF) definition for the event_id field within Phantom, and setting its data type to something that denotes it as a Splunk notable event ID, SOAR can recognize and appropriately handle these identifiers. This setup facilitates the correct mapping and processing of notable event data within SOAR, enabling the execution of context-aware actions that are specifically tailored to the characteristics of Splunk notable events.



After enabling multi-tenancy, which of the Mowing is the first configuration step?

  1. Select the associated tenant artifacts.
  2. Change the tenant permissions.
  3. Set default tenant base address.
  4. Configure the default tenant.

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

Upon enabling multi-tenancy in Splunk SOAR, the first step in configuration typically involves setting up the default tenant. This foundational step is critical as it establishes the primary operating environment under which subsequent tenants can be created and managed. The default tenant serves as the template for permissions, settings, and configurations that might be inherited or customized by additional tenants. Proper configuration of the default tenant ensures a stable and consistent framework for multi-tenancy operations, allowing for segregated environments within the same SOAR instance, each tailored to specific operational needs or organizational units.
