5V0-93.22 Exam Dumps : VMware Carbon Black Cloud Endpoint Standard Skills

 According to the VMware Carbon Black Cloud Endpoint Standard User Guide, the threshold, in days, before a machine shows as inactive in the console is 7 days. An inactive device is a device that has not communicated with the Carbon Black Cloud console for more than 7 days. The console displays the last communication time for each device on the Endpoints page. The administrator can use the Inactive Devices filter to view all the inactive devices in the organization. The administrator can also use the Device Status widget on the Dashboard page to see the number and percentage of inactive devices in the organization. The administrator can take various actions to resolve the inactive device issue, such as:

• Check the network connectivity and firewall settings of the device
• Check the sensor status and version on the device
• Check the policy settings and rules applied to the device
• Reinstall the sensor on the device
• Delete the device from the console if it is no longer in use References:
• VMware Carbon Black Cloud Endpoint Standard User Guide, page 14, Inactive Devices section.

This feature allows the administrator to test the rule against historical data and see how many events would have matched the rule criteria in the past 24 hours. The administrator can also see the details of the matching events, such as the device name, the process name, the process path, the operation type, and the operation result. This feature can help the administrator to confirm that the new rulewould have prevented a previous execution that had been observed, as well as to evaluate the effectiveness and accuracy of the rule1.

The other options are not features that can be used for this purpose. A. Setting up a notification based on a policy action, and then selecting Terminate is a feature that allows the administrator to receive an alert when a terminate rule is triggered by a current event, but it does not allow the administrator to test the rule against historical data. C. Configuring the rule to terminate the process is a feature that allows the administrator to specify the action that the sensor will take when the rule is triggered by a current event, but it does not allow the administrator to test the rule against historical data. D. Configuring the rule to deny operation of the process is a feature that allows the administrator to specify a different action than terminate for the rule, but it does not allow the administrator to test the rule against historical data. References:

The reputation that was used by the sensor for the decision to terminate the process was the effective reputation. The effective reputation is the reputation that the sensor uses to evaluate and enforce policy rules on the endpoint. The effective reputation is determined by the following factors:

• The initial cloud reputation, which is the reputation that the Carbon Black Cloud assigns to the file based on its analysis and threat intelligence feeds.
• The actioned reputation, which is the reputation that the administrator assigns to the file through the Carbon Black Cloud console, such as approve, ban, or dismiss.
• The current cloud reputation, which is the reputation that the Carbon Black Cloud updates for the file based on new information or changes in the threat landscape.

The effective reputation is the highest priority reputation among these three factors. For example, if the initial cloud reputation is SUSPECT_MALWARE, the actioned reputation is APPROVED, and the current cloud reputation is KNOWN_MALWARE, the effective reputation will be APPROVED, because it has the highest priority. The sensor will use the effective reputation to apply the policy rules on the endpoint. In this case, the process will not be blocked by the rule [Suspected malware] [Invokes a command interpreter] [Terminate process], because the effective reputation is not SUSPECT_MALWARE.

In the question scenario, the effective reputation for the process was SUSPECT_MALWARE, which means that either the initial cloud reputation, the actioned reputation, or the current cloud reputation was SUSPECT_MALWARE, and there was no higher priority reputation that overrode it. Therefore, the sensor used the effective reputation to enforce the policy rule and terminate the process. References:
