Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: B

Splunk alerts are based on searches that run on a schedule or in real time. You can use alerts to monitor for and respond to specific events or conditions in your dat

a. Alerts use a saved search to look for events in real time or on a schedule. Alerts trigger when search results meet specific conditions.You can use alert actions to respond when alerts trigger, such as sending an email, running a script, or creating a ticket1.

You can create alerts from the Search app, the Alerts page, or the Dashboards app.You can also use the Splunk Web framework to create custom alert actions using Python or JavaScript1.

Dashboards, webhooks, and reports are not the basis for Splunk alerts, although they can be related to them. Dashboards are collections of views that display data visually in a variety of ways.You can add alert panels to dashboards to show the status of your alerts2. Webhooks are a type of alert action that send HTTP POST requests to a specified URL when an alert triggers.You can use webhooks to integrate Splunk alerts with external systems or applications3. Reports are saved searches that include additional attributes such as a visualization type, permissions, and an optional description. You can create reports from search results and add them to dashboards as panels. You can also use reports as the basis for scheduled or real-time alerts.

I'm going with B. It's the most straightforward way to get the job done. No need to overcomplicate things.

Haha, I bet the person who wrote option D was just trying to be fancy with that 'dc(count)' thing. Sounds like a trick question to me!

Option C seems a bit odd to me. Counting by 'Event Count' doesn't seem to make much sense in this context.

I think option B is the correct answer, as it uses the 'count' function to return the number of matching events and assigns it to the 'Event Count' field.

I think it's option A, using 'sum' instead of 'count'.

I'm not sure, but I think D) index=security failure | stats dc(count) as 'Event Count' could also be correct.

I agree with Trinidad, because 'count' is used to calculate the number of matching events.
