Question #: 12
Topic #: 3
[All SPLK-5002 Questions]

Which Splunk feature enables integration with third-party tools for automated response actions?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: B

Security teams use Splunk Enterprise Security (ES) and Splunk SOAR to integrate with firewalls, endpoint security, and SIEM tools for automated threat response.

Workflow Actions (B) - Key Integration Feature

Allows analysts to trigger automated actions directly from Splunk searches and dashboards.

Can integrate with SOAR playbooks, ticketing systems (e.g., ServiceNow), or firewalls to take action.

Example:

Block an IP on a firewall from a Splunk dashboard.

Trigger a SOAR playbook for automated threat containment.

Incorrect Answers:

A . Data Model Acceleration Speeds up searches, but doesn't handle integrations.

C . Summary Indexing Stores summarized data for reporting, not automation.

D . Event Sampling Reduces search load, but doesn't trigger automated actions.

I definitely recall that data model acceleration is more about performance, so I don't think that's the answer. It has to be Workflow actions!

I'm leaning towards Workflow actions too, but I feel like there was something about event sampling that could be relevant.

I remember practicing a question about integrating third-party tools, and I think it was related to summary indexing. But that doesn't seem right for automated responses.
