Which type of IOC can you define in Cortex XDR?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A

Cortex XDR allows you to define IOC rules based on various types of indicators of compromise (IOC) that you can use to detect and respond to threats in your network. One of the types of IOC that you can define in Cortex XDR isdestination IP address, which is the IP address of the remote host that a local endpoint is communicating with. You can use this type of IOC to identify malicious network activity, such as connections to command and control servers, phishing sites, or malware distribution hosts. You can also specify the direction of the network traffic (inbound or outbound) and the protocol (TCP or UDP) for the destination IP address IOC.Reference:

App-ID sounds familiar, but I’m not sure if it qualifies as an IOC in Cortex XDR. I might need to double-check that.

I practiced a similar question about IOCs last week, and I think full paths were included, but I’m not confident about their relevance in this context.

I feel like we covered e-mail addresses as IOCs in class, but I can't recall if they were specifically mentioned for Cortex XDR.

I think I remember something about destination ports being a type of IOC, but I'm not entirely sure if that's the only one.
