CCFH-202 Practice Exam Questions with Answers CrowdStrike Certified Falcon Hunter Certification

When exporting the results of an event search, the data that is saved in the exported file depends on the mode and the tab that is selected. In this case, the mode is Verbose and the tab is Statistics, as indicated by the stats command. Therefore, the data that is saved in the exported file is the results of the Statistics tab, which shows the count ofevents by ComputerName. The text of the query, all events in the Events tab, and no data are not correct answers.

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.

The OR operator is needed to complete the following query, as it allows to search for events that match any of the specified values. The query would look like this:

event_simpleName=ProcessRollup2 FileName=net.exe OR FileName=ipconfig.exe OR FileName=whoami.exe

The OR operator is used to combine multiple search terms or expressions and return events that match at least one of them. The IN, NOT, and AND operators are not suitable for this query, as they have different functions and meanings.

This option is the correct one to complete the following EAM query:

event_simpleName=ProcessRollup2 FileName=$Recycle Bin

This query would search for any process execution that used a file stored in the Recycle Bin on a Windows host, as the asterisk (*) is a wildcard character that matches any number of characters before or after the specified string. The other options are not correct, as they use different wildcard characters that do not match the desired pattern.

Temporal analysis is a type of analysis that focuses on the timing and sequence of events in order to identify patterns, trends, or anomalies. By sorting all recent detections in the Falcon platform to identify the oldest, an analyst can perform temporal analysis to determine the possible first victim host and trace back the origin of an attack.

The Process Timeline Link is what you click to jump to a Process Timeline from many pages in Falcon, such as a Hash Search. The Process Timeline Link is an icon that looks like three horizontal bars with dots on them. It appears next to each process name or ID on various pages in Falcon, such as Hash Search results, Detection details, Event Search results, etc. Clicking on it will open a new tab with the Process Timeline for that process. The PID, the Process ID or Parent Process ID, and the CID are not what you click to jump to a Process Timeline.

Event_SimpleName is the correct field name to find the name of an event in Falcon Event Search. It is a field that shows the simplified name of each event type, such as ProcessRollup2, DnsRequest, or FileDelete. Event_Simple_Name, EVENT_SIMPLE_NAME, and event_simpleName are not valid field names for finding the name of an event.

User Search is a search page that allows a threat hunter to search for user activity across endpoints and correlate it with other events. This can help differentiate testing, DevOPs, or general user activity from adversary behavior by identifying anomalous or suspicious user actions, such as logging into multiple systems, running unusual commands, or accessing sensitive files.

 These are the steps required to properly create a custom alert rule. Custom Alerts are a feature that allows you to configure email alerts using predefined templates so you’re notified about specific activity in your environment. You can choose from various templates that cover different use cases, such as suspicious PowerShell activity, network connections to risky countries, etc. You can also preview the search results of the template before scheduling the alert. You do not need to create the query for the alert, setup the email template for the alert, or create a new custom template, as these are already provided by the predefined templates.

The Falcon Detections page will attempt to decode Encoded PowerShell Command line parameters when the -Command parameter is present. The -Command parameter allows PowerShell to execute a specified script block or string. If the script block or string is encoded using Base64 or other methods, the Falcon Detections page will try to decode it and show the original command. The -Hidden, -e, and -nop parameters are not related to encoding or decoding PowerShell commands.

_time is the SPL (Splunk) field name that can be used to automatically convert Unix times (Epoch) to UTC readable time within the Falcon Event Search. It is a default field that shows the timestamp of each event in a human-readable format. utc_time, conv_time, and time are not valid SPL field names for converting Unix times to UTC readable time.

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.

A Falcon threat hunting lead is a piece of information that can be used to initiate or guide a threat hunting activity within the Falcon platform. A routine threat hunt query showing process executions of single letter filename (e.g., a.exe) from temporary directories is an example of a Falcon threat hunting lead, as it can indicate potentialmalicious activity that can be further investigated using Falcon data and features. Security appliance logs, help desk tickets, and external reports are not examples of Falcon threat hunting leads, as they are not directly related to the Falcon platform or data.
