Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: C

The Hunting and Investigation guide contains example Event Search queries useful for threat hunting. These queries are based on common threat hunting use cases and scenarios, such as finding suspicious processes, network connections, registry activity, etc. The guide also explains how to customize and modify the queries to suit different needs and environments. The guide does not contain a list of all event types and their syntax, as that information is provided in the Events Data Dictionary. The guide also does not contain example Event Search queries useful for Falcon platform configuration, as that is not the focus of the guide.

A password guessing attack? Sounds like someone's trying to brute-force their way in. D is the way to go, for sure.

Haha, I bet it's the users locking themselves out. Classic IT support scenario right there. But seriously, I'm going with D as well.

I don't think it's C. Users forgetting their new passwords shouldn't cause a sudden increase in lockouts. D sounds like the best bet to me.

Hmm, I'm not sure. Could it be a zero-day vulnerability in the Exchange server? That seems like a plausible attack vector.

I think the answer is D. A password guessing attack on remote access mechanisms like VPN is the most likely cause of the account lockouts.

I'm not sure, but B) A publicly available web application being hacked could also be a possibility. We should investigate both scenarios.

I agree with Lakeesha, it makes sense that someone is trying to guess passwords to gain unauthorized access.
