You are tasked with configuring IBM Security QRadar SIEM V7.2.7 to pull a log file that generated daily at midnight from a custom application on a Microsoft Windows Server.
Which log source protocol should be used to accomplish this task?

  • A. WinCollect MSRPC
  • B. WinCollect Agent
  • C. WinCollect Log File
  • D. WinCollect File Forwarder


Answer : B

Explanation:
A managed WinCollect deployment has a QRadar appliance that shares information with the WinCollect agent installed on the Windows hosts that you want to monitor. The
Windows host can either gather information from itself, the local host, and, or remote
Windows hosts.
Note: The WinCollect application is a Syslog event forwarder that administrators can use for Windows event collection with QRadar. The WinCollect application can collect events from systems with WinCollect software installed (local systems), or remotely poll other
Windows systems for events.

A Deployment Professional working with IBM SecurityQRadar SIEM V7.2.7 is configuring scanners for dynamic scanning and is working with a customer to explain how dynamic scanning works, presenting the following example.

Asset IP: 10.2.2.3 -

Scanner A CIDR: 10.2.2.0/24 -

Scanner B CIDR: 10.2.2.3/32 -
How is this asset scanned when utilizing dynamic scanning?

  • A. Scanner A would scan this asset as it has the bigger CIDR for accuracy.
  • B. Scanner B would try the scan first then Scanner A would make an attempt.
  • C. Scanner B would scan this asset as it has the smaller CIDR for accuracy.
  • D. Scanner A & B would scan this asset as it is contained within both their CIDRs.


Answer : A

Explanation:
In QRadar Vulnerability Manager you can assign different scanners to network CIDR ranges. During a scan, each asset in the CIDR range that you want to scan is dynamically associated with the correct scanner.

A Deployment Professional needs to store information in the IBM Security QRadar SIEM
V7.2.7 asset database which is provided from the customer's configuration management data base (CMDB). The CMDB provides a nightly dump of information like 'Technical
Owner' and Asset weight' tied to an IP address.
Which integration mechanism with QRadar will allow this information to be maintained?

  • A. Use REST-API calls with the /asset_model/assets/{asset_id} endpoint
  • B. Upload the information in a CSV format using the 'Import Assets' function
  • C. Send syslog LEEF formatted identity events to the 'Asset Profiler-2' log source
  • D. Schedule the AXIS scanner to import a pre-formatted XML file with the required data


Answer : B

Explanation:
You can import asset profile information.
The imported file must be a CSV file in the following format: p,name,weight,description
The import process merges the imported asset profiles with the asset profile information you have currently stored in the system.

A Deployment Professional has created a new Building Block (BB), and it's not returning any expected events. The Deployment Professional has checked to ensure the BB is enabled and active. No errors are returned.
What should be done to correct this BB problem?

  • A. Add your new custom BB to the “System: Load Building Blocks” rule
  • B. Ensure that the BB has been set to “use” and a Deploy Full Configuration was done
  • C. Make sure that you use “Global System” so that all of the QRadar deployment uses it
  • D. Manually enter in all QID's of the events it till monitor so it will automatically be used


Answer : A

Explanation:

Note: Question -
Will a building block of type: Common work when added to 'System: Load Building Blocks'?

Answer -
The rule, System: Load Building Blocks is an Event only rule. If a building block is created from Type: Common, which includes both Events and Flows, and is then added to the
System: Load Building Blocks rule, it will load, but will only reflect Event offenses and not
Flow offenses. Flow offenses can be triggered when using Flow rules, which are then bound to the building block used in a Flow rule.

A Deployment Professional is working with IBM Security QRadar SIEM V7.2.7. for a new customer that is trying to create their network hierarchy. The customer currently has more than the maximum of 1,000 network objects and CIDR ranges. A few of the CIDRs of the customer are:
Which supernet should be used to shrink the amount of network objects for the supplied group of CIDRs?

  • A. 209.60.128.0/22
  • B. 209.60.129.0/23
  • C. C. 209.60.128.0/23
  • D. D. 209.60.127.0/27


Answer : C

Explanation:
Supernetting, also called Classless Inter-Domain Routing (CIDR), is a way to aggregate multiple Internet addresses of the same class.
Using supernetting, the network address 209.60.128.0/24 and an adjacent address
209.60.129.0/24 can be merged into 209.60.128.0/23. The "23" at the end of the address says that the first 23 bits are the network part of the address, leaving the remaining nine bits for specific host addresses.

A Deployment Professional working with IBM Security QRadar SIEM V7.2.7 is noticing system notifications relating to performance degradation of the CRE relating to expensive rules. Upon locating the rules that are being expensive they need to be modified to no longer trigger this notification.
What are three causes for a rule to become expensive? (Choose three.)

  • A. Containing payload matches tests
  • B. Rule consisting of a large scope
  • C. Containing payload contains tests
  • D. Rule consisting of a narrow scope
  • E. Utilizing non-standard regular expressions
  • F. Utilizing non-optimized regular expressions


Answer : B,C,F

Explanation:
A user can create a custom rule that has a large scope, uses a regex pattern that is not efficient, includes Payload contains tests, or combines the rule with regular expressions.
When this custom rule is used, it negatively impacts performance, which can cause events to be incorrectly routed directly to storage. Events are indexed and normalized but they don't trigger alerts or offenses.
