Splunk SPLK-2003 Dumps Questions Answers

Configuring SOAR search to use an external Splunk server allows for the automation of Splunk searches within SOAR. This integration enables Splunk SOAR to leverage the powerful search capabilities of an external Splunk Cloud Platform or Enterprise instance, thereby enhancing the ability to search for Splunk SOAR data using Splunk’s search language (SPL). It also facilitates the use of universal forwarders to send SOAR data to your Splunk deployment12. While the other options may be benefits of using Splunk in general, the specific advantage of configuring SOAR search with an external Splunk server is the automation of searches, which can streamline the process of querying and analyzing SOAR data within the Splunk environment12.

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.

Filter blocks are used to add information to custom lists in Phantom VPE. Filter blocks allow the user to specify a list name and a filter expression to select the data to be added to the list. Action blocks are used to execute app actions, API blocks are used to make REST API calls, and decision blocks are used to evaluate conditions and branch the playbook execution. In the Phantom Visual Playbook Editor (VPE), an API block is used to interact with various external APIs, including custom lists within Phantom. Custom lists are key-value stores that can be used to maintain state, aggregate data, or track information across multiple playbook runs. API blocks allow the playbook to make GET, POST, PUT, and DELETE requests to these lists, facilitating the addition, retrieval, update, or removal of information. This makes API blocks a versatile tool in managing custom list data within playbooks.
