Definitely a warning event!

I think it's more of a failure audit.

Sounds like a success audit to me!

I feel like it has to be a success audit since the actor actually accessed the device, but I need to double-check my notes on this.

I’m leaning towards warning events because it seems like a potential threat was detected, but I could be wrong.

I remember practicing a question like this, and I think a failure audit would apply if they were trying to log in unsuccessfully.
AL

I think this might be a success audit since the malicious actor was able to log in, but I'm not entirely sure.
CH

I'm leaning towards success audit as well. The question specifically mentions that Brielle observed the malicious actor logging in, which suggests the event was successfully recorded, even though it was a malicious activity.
EL

Okay, let me think this through. The question states that Brielle observed a malicious actor logging in, so that would indicate an unauthorized access attempt. I think the correct answer is a success audit, since the malicious actor was able to successfully log in.

This seems straightforward. The malicious actor logging in to access a network device would be considered a success audit event.
PA

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure here. Is it a success audit or a failure audit? The question mentions a malicious actor, so I'm not sure if that would be considered a success or a failure.

Hmm, this is an interesting question. I think the key here is to figure out how to best integrate the WAF1 policy with the WebApp1 application. I'm not entirely sure which of these options is the right first step, so I'll need to carefully consider the implications of each choice before making a decision.

This looks straightforward - I'll go with Table, Raw, and List to cover the different data visualization options.
