This is the correct answer for the same reason as above. The Events Data Dictionary provides a reference of information about the events found in the Investigate > Event Search page of the Falcon Console, which is useful for writing hunting queries. It does not provide pre-defined queries, detect names and descriptions, or compatible splunk commands.


NEW QUESTION # 29
Which field in a DNS Request event points to the responsible process?

  • A. ParentProcessId_decimal
  • B. ContextProcessld_readable
  • C. ContextProcessld_decimal
  • D. TargetProcessld_decimal

Answer: B

Explanation:
The ContextProcessld_readable field in a DNS Request event points to the responsible process. The ContextProcessld_readable field is the readable representation of the process identifier for the process that initiated the DNS request. It can be used to identify which process was communicating with a specific domain or IP address. The TargetProcessld_decimal, ContextProcessld_decimal, and ParentProcessId_decimal fields do not point to the responsible process.


NEW QUESTION # 30
Which of the following is a suspicious process behavior?

  • A. PowerShell running an execution policy of RemoteSigned
  • B. An Internet browser (eg, Internet Explorer) performing multiple DNS requests
  • C. PowerShell launching a PowerShell script
  • D. Non-network processes (eg, notepad exe) making an outbound network connection

Answer: D

Explanation:
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.
