Based on the image below, which statement applies to the ability to remove tabs when creating a new alert layout?

  1. Only "Alert Info" tab can be removed.
  2. Only "Alert Info" and "War Room" tabs can be removed.
  3. Only "War Room" and "Work Plan" tabs can be removed.
  4. Only "Work Plan" tab can be removed.

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

In Cortex XSIAM's Alert Layout Builder, the "War Room" and "Work Plan" tabs are optional and can be removed, while the "Alert Info" tab is mandatory and cannot be deleted. This ensures that essential alert details are always retained, while collaboration and workflow tabs can be customized.



A Cortex XSIAM engineer is developing a playbook that uses reputation commands such as '!ip' to enrich and analyze indicators.

Which statement applies to the use of reputation commands in this scenario?

  1. If no reputation integration instance is configured, the '!ip' command will execute but will return no results.
  2. Reputation commands such as '!ip' will fail if the required reputation integration instance is not configured and enabled.
  3. The mapping flow for enrichment commands is disabled if extraction is set to "None."
  4. Enrichment data will not be saved to the indicator unless the extraction setting is manually configured in the playbook task.

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

Reputation commands such as !ip rely on a configured and enabled reputation integration instance (for example, VirusTotal, Palo Alto WildFire, or other threat intel sources). If no such instance is available, the command execution will fail, since it cannot retrieve enrichment data.



An engineer wants to onboard data from a third-party vendor's firewall. There is no content pack available for it, so the engineer creates custom data source integration and parsing rules to generate a dataset with the firewall data.

How can the analytics capabilities of Cortex XSIAM be used on the data?

  1. Create a behavioral indicator of compromise (BIOC) rule on the network fields (source IP, source port, target IP, target port. IP protocol).
  2. Create a data model rule with network fields mapped (source IP. source port, target IP. target port.
    IP protocol).
  3. Create a correlation rule on the network fields (source IP. source port, target IP. target port. IP protocol).
  4. Create a parsing rule and ensure the network fields exist (source IP. source port, target IP. target port. IP protocol).

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

To leverage Cortex XSIAM analytics on custom-ingested firewall data, a data model rule must be created with the key network fields (source IP, source port, target IP, target port, IP protocol) mapped. This enables the data to align with XSIAM's analytics engine and be used for BIOCs, correlation rules, and advanced detections.



Which two requirements must be met for a Cortex XDR agent to successfully use the Broker VM as a download source for content updates? (Choose two.)

  1. Device Configuration profile applied to the XDR agent must specify the Broker VM as a Download Source.
  2. Agent Settings profile applied to the XDR agent must specify the Broker VM as a Download Source.
  3. Broker VM must be configured with an FQDN.
  4. XDR agent must authenticate to the Broker VM using a machine certificate.\

Answer(s): B,C

Explanation:

For Cortex XDR agents to use the Broker VM as a download source, the Agent Settings profile must specify the Broker VM as the update source, and the Broker VM must be configured with an FQDN so agents can reliably resolve and connect to it.



During a new Cortex XSIAM deployment, a user consistently experiences timeout sessions while trying to connect to the agent through Live Terminal, even though the firewall engineer has confirmed that all source IP addresses, port 443, and destinations are allowed.

What could be causing these persistent timeout issues?

  1. User does not have administrative privileges on the managed endpoint.
  2. SSL Decryption is currently being used to inspect the underlying traffic.
  3. NTP is not synchronized with the server time.
  4. Live Terminal feature is not supported on the current OS.

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

Persistent timeout issues with Cortex XSIAM Live Terminal, despite firewall rules being open, are often caused by SSL Decryption inspecting the traffic. Live Terminal relies on secure, end-to-end TLS communication, and decryption breaks this channel, leading to session failures.



What should be considered when creating a custom incident domain?

  1. Alert grouping will not apply, but SmartScore will.
  2. Alert grouping will apply, but SmartScore will not.
  3. Alert grouping and SmartScore will not be applied to incidents.
  4. Alert grouping and SmartScore will be applied to incidents.

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

When creating a custom incident domain in Cortex XSIAM, alert grouping still applies, allowing related alerts to be combined into incidents. However, SmartScore is not applied, since it is reserved for predefined domains.



How does Cortex XSIAM manage licensing for Kubernetes environments?

  1. Managed per namespace and returned when the namespace is decommissioned
  2. Issued per container and returned upon container termination
  3. Issued for each node and returned when the agent is removed or the node is deleted
  4. Applied per service deployment and returned upon service deactivation

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

In Kubernetes environments, Cortex XSIAM licensing is issued per node. The license is consumed when the agent is installed on a node and is automatically returned when the agent is removed or the node is deleted, ensuring accurate license utilization.



A Cortex XSIAM engineer is preparing to install a new content pack and notices that there are several optional content packs associated with the main one that needs to be installed.

What must the engineer take into consideration when deciding whether or not to install the optional content packs?

  1. Mandatory dependencies required by the optional content packs are automatically included during installation. The engineer should consider the additional functionality and potential impact on system performance.
  2. The optional content packs without their associated dependencies are installed first, and then the main content pack installation is triggered. The engineer should ensure that the optional content packs do not conflict with existing configurations.
  3. Optional content packs are installed without any dependencies, as they are not necessary. The engineer should only install them if they require the additional features.
  4. Only the selected optional content packs are installed, without including any additional dependencies. The engineer should manually check for any required dependencies.

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

When installing optional content packs in Cortex XSIAM, any mandatory dependencies are automatically included. The engineer's main consideration is whether the additional functionality is needed and whether it may have a performance impact on the system.

question 16 should be b (changing the connector settings on the monitor) pc and monitor were powered on. the lights on the pc are on indicating power. the monitor is showing an error text indicating that it is receiving power too. this is a clear sign of having the wrong input selected on the monitor. thus, the "connector setting" needs to be switched from hdmi to display port on the monitor so it receives the signal from the pc, or the other way around (display port to hdmi).

question 14 - run terraform import: this is the recommended best practice for bringing manually created or destroyed resources under terraform management. you use terraform import to associate an existing resource with a terraform resource configuration. this ensures that terraform is aware of the resource, and you can subsequently manage it with terraform.
