Posted by Ernie on Jun 12, 2025 at 10:04 AM

Configuring Phantom search to use an external Splunk server provides which of the following benefits?

Suggested Answer: C

The correct answer is C because configuring Phantom search to use an external Splunk server allows you to automate Splunk searches within Phantom using therun queryaction. This action can be used to run any Splunk search command on the external Splunk server and return the results to Phantom. You can also use theformat resultsaction to parse the results and use them in other blocks. SeeSplunk SOAR Documentationfor more details.

Configuring Phantom (now known as Splunk SOAR) to use an external Splunk server enhances the automation capabilities within Phantom by allowing the execution of Splunk searches as part of the automation and orchestration processes. This integration facilitates the automation of tasks that involve querying data from Splunk, thereby streamlining security operations and incident response workflows. Splunk SOAR's ability to integrate with over 300 third-party tools, including Splunk, supports a wide range of automatable actions, thus enabling a more efficient and effective security operations center (SOC) by reducing the time to respond to threats and by making repetitive tasks more manageable
