5V0-93.22 Exam Dumps : VMware Carbon Black Cloud Endpoint Standard Skills

 The Investigate page in the VMware Carbon Black Cloud Endpoint Standard console is where the security administrator can perform a search to further inspect the script-based attack that was coded into Excel VBA. The Investigate page allows the administrator to use advanced search techniques to query the endpoint data collected by the VMware Carbon Black Cloud sensors. The administrator can use various fields and operators to filter and refine the search results, such as process_name, file_name, file_path, file_type, file_description, and more. The administrator can also use the processtree view to visualize the process execution and the event details to examine the process activity. For example, the administrator can use the following search query to find all the processes that have a file type of Excel VBA:

file_type:EXCEL_VBA

This query will return all the processes that have a file type of EXCEL_VBA, which is a file type that indicates the file contains Excel VBA code. The file_type field is a string that indicates the type of the file based on its content and format. The possible values for this field are:

• EXE: Executable file
• DLL: Dynamic-link library file
• SYS: System file
• BAT: Batch file
• CMD: Command file
• VBS: Visual Basic Script file
• JS: JavaScript file
• PS1: PowerShell Script file
• HTA: HTML Application file
• MSI: Windows Installer file
• DOC: Microsoft Word document file
• XLS: Microsoft Excel spreadsheet file
• PPT: Microsoft PowerPoint presentation file
• PDF: Portable Document Format file
• SWF: Shockwave Flash file
• JAR: Java Archive file
• CLASS: Java class file
• PY: Python script file
• SH: Shell script file
• PL: Perl script file
• RB: Ruby script file
• PHP: PHP script file
• ASP: Active Server Pages file
• ASPX: Active Server Pages Extended file
• HTML: HyperText Markup Language file
• XML: Extensible Markup Language file
• DOCM: Microsoft Word document with macros file
• XLAM: Microsoft Excel add-in with macros file
• XLSM: Microsoft Excel spreadsheet with macros file
• XLTM: Microsoft Excel template with macros file
• PPTM: Microsoft PowerPoint presentation with macros file
• POTM: Microsoft PowerPoint template with macros file
• PPAM: Microsoft PowerPoint add-in with macros file
• EXCEL_VBA: Excel Visual Basic for Applications file
• WORD_VBA: Word Visual Basic for Applications file
• POWERPOINT_VBA: PowerPoint Visual Basic for Applications file
• OUTLOOK_VBA: Outlook Visual Basic for Applications file
• ACCESS_VBA: Access Visual Basic for Applications file
• PROJECT_VBA: Project Visual Basic for Applications file
• VISIO_VBA: Visio Visual Basic for Applications file
• PUBLISHER_VBA: Publisher Visual Basic for Applications file
• INFOPATH_VBA: InfoPath Visual Basic for Applications file
• ONENOTE_VBA: OneNote Visual Basic for Applications file
• UNKNOWN: Unknown file type

Therefore, by using the Investigate page in the VMware Carbon Black Cloud Endpoint Standard console, the security administrator can perform a search to further inspect the script-based attack that was coded into Excel VBA. References:

VMware Carbon Black Cloud is a cloud-native endpoint and workload protection platform that combines the intelligent system hardening and behavioral prevention needed to keep emerging threats at bay, using a single lightweight agent and an easy-to-use console. One of the capabilities of VMware Carbon Black Cloud is attack chain visualization and search, which allows users to see the full scope of an attack, from initial compromise to lateral movement, and quickly search for indicators of compromise across endpoints and workloads. References: VMware Carbon Black Cloud Endpoint Standard Skills Exam Guide, page 4; VMware Carbon Black Cloud Endpoint Standard Skills Study Guide, page 6.

According to the VMware Carbon Black Cloud Endpoint Standard User Guide, the Sensor Service (RepMqr) is the process that is responsible for uploading event reporting to VMware Carbon Black Cloud. The Sensor Service (RepMqr) is one of the components of the VMware Carbon Black Cloud sensor, which is the software agent that runs on the endpoints and collects and sends data to the VMware Carbon Black Cloud console. The Sensor Service (RepMqr) is responsible for the following tasks:

• Collecting and compressing endpoint events
• Sending endpoint events to the VMware Carbon Black Cloud console
• Receiving and applying policy updates from the VMware Carbon Black Cloud console
• Performing actions requested by the VMware Carbon Black Cloud console, such as quarantine, unquarantine, or bypass

The other processes are not responsible for uploading event reporting to VMware Carbon Black Cloud. The Sensor Service (RepUx) is the process that is responsible for uploading file metadata and content to VMware Carbon Black Cloud. The Scanner Service (scanhost) is the process that is responsible for scanning the endpoint for malicious files and activity. The Scanner Service (Re) is the process that is responsible for scanning the endpoint for reputation information. References:
