Which of the following would cause an identity-based incident type to change?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: D

In Falcon Identity Protection, identity-based incidents are dynamic and can evolve over time as additional detections are associated with them. According to the CCIS curriculum, an incident's type is automatically recalculated based on the detections related to the incident, not by manual user actions.

As new identity-based detections are generated---such as credential misuse, lateral movement attempts, or abnormal authentication behavior---the platform continuously reassesses the incident. If the newly added detections indicate a different or more severe attack pattern, Falcon may automatically change the incident type to better reflect the observed threat activity.

Manual actions such as adding exclusions or linking detections do not directly change the incident type. Similarly, users cannot manually override an incident's classification. The classification logic is driven entirely by Falcon's analytics engine to ensure consistent, objective threat categorization.

This automated behavior is emphasized in CCIS training to highlight Falcon's ability to adapt incident context as attacks progress, making Option D the correct answer.

Detections definitely impact the incident. So, D is valid too.

I'm leaning towards B. Linking detections shows a change in perspective.

A could also work. Adding exclusions changes the context.

I think C is the most direct answer. Changing the type makes it clear.

Detections alone shouldn't change the type, so I disagree with that.

Wait, can users really change the incident type? That seems risky!

Not sure about B, seems like it wouldn't change the type.

Detections related to the incident seem important, but I don't know if they would change the type. I might lean towards C.

I feel like B could also be a possibility, but I can't recall if linking detections actually changes the incident type.

I'm not sure, but I remember something about exclusions affecting incidents. Could it be A?

I think the answer might be C, since changing the incident type directly seems like it would definitely cause a change.
