SPLK-5001 Exam Dumps : Splunk Certified Cybersecurity Defense Analyst

The Splunk Security Content library, which includes apps like ESCU (Enterprise Security Content Update) and SSE (Splunk Security Essentials), primarily consists of Dashboards, Reports, and Correlation Searches.Validated architecturesare not a component of these content libraries. Instead, validated architectures refer to predefined, best-practice designs for deploying and configuring Splunk in a way that ensures optimal performance and scalability, which is separate from the content libraries focused on delivering security detections and visualizations.

In the context of theTTP (Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures)framework used in cybersecurity, the termProcedurerefers to the specific implementation or method used by an adversary to execute an attack or achieve an objective. Here, "LoudWiner" represents a particular malware or tool used by the adversary to hijack resources for crypto mining, which is an actualprocedure—the concrete steps or methods taken to accomplish the broader technique or tactic.

Tacticis the adversary’s goal or objective (e.g., resource hijacking for financial gain).

Techniqueis a general method used to achieve the tactic (e.g., crypto mining via malware).

Procedureis the specific variant or implementation of the technique (e.g., using LoudWiner malware).

Problemis not a recognized element in the TTP framework.

TheMITRE ATT&CK frameworkdefines procedures as real-world implementations of techniques by adversaries. Splunk’s cybersecurity analyst materials emphasize understanding these distinctions to better map observed adversary behavior.

According to Splunk’s Common Information Model (CIM) documentation, when investigating network alerts, the IP address of the host from which an attacker is moving (source) is typically stored in thesrc_ipfield. Thehostfield generally refers to the name of the host that logged the event,destrefers to the destination IP, andsrc_nt_hostrefers to the NetBIOS name of the source host. Thesrc_ipfield is specifically used to denote the source IP address in the context of network communication, which is critical for tracing lateral movement.
