Palo Alto Networks XSIAM Engineer Questions and Answers
An engineer is conducting a threat actor emulated test to determine which Cortex XDR module would provide protection or alert on a real-world attack. The first test was prevented.
Which action must the engineer take to enable continued testing?
A Remove the hash from the restrictions profile
B. Add an indicator exclusion.
C. Add a prevention rule.
D. Change the profile from "alert" to "prevent" for the BTP module.
A Cortex XSIAM engineer is implementing role-based access control (RBAC) and scope-based access control (SBAC) for users accessing the Cortex XSIAM tenant with the following requirements:
Users managing machines in Europe should be able to manage and control all endpoints and installations, create profiles and policies, view alerts, and initiate Live Terminal, but only for endpoints in the Europe region.
Users managing machines in Europe should not be able to create, modify, or delete new or existing user roles.
The Europe region endpoints are identified by both of the following:
Endpoint Tag = "Europe-Servers" and Endpoint Group = "Europe" for servers in Europe
Endpoint Group = "Europe" and Endpoint Tag = "Europe-Workstation" for workstations in Europe
Which two sets of implementation actions should the engineer take? (Choose two.)
Which cytool command will look up the policy being applied to a Cortex XDR agent?
When activating the Cortex XSIAM tenant, how is the data at rest configured with AES 128 encryption?
Based on the images below, which command will allow the context data to be displayed as a table when troubleshooting a playbook task?
When a Cortex XSIAM playbook execution reaches a breakpoint on a non-manual task, which two actions will allow the playbook to continue? (Choose two.)
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?
A systems engineer overseeing the integration of data from various sources through data pipelines into Cortex XSIAM notices modifications occurring during the ingestion process, and these modifications reduce the accuracy of threat detection and response. The engineer needs to assess the risks associated with the pre-ingestion data modifications and develop effective solutions for data integrity and system efficacy.
Which set of steps must be followed to meet these goals?
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?
A CISO has asked an engineer to create a custom dashboard in Cortex XSIAM that can be filtered to show incidents assigned to a specific user.
Which feature should be used to filter the incident data in the dashboard?
A Cortex XSIAM engineer adds a disable injection and prevention rule for a specific running process. After an hour, the engineer disables the rule to reinstate the security capabilities, but the capabilities are not applied.
What is the explanation for this behavior?
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?
Which step must be taken to enable Cloud Identity Engine on Cortex XSIAM?
Which action is required to enable use of a custom script in an alert layout?
When Cortex XDR agents are on servers in a zone with no internet access, which configuration will keep them communicating with the platform?
How does Cortex XSIAM manage licensing for Kubernetes environments?
A Cortex XSIAM engineer plans to add Kafka and Syslog Collectors to a Broker VM cluster.
What are two expected behaviors of the applets when they are added to the cluster? (Choose two.)
