The correct statement regarding Blocking/Isolation rules and Permission rules is D. Blocking & Isolation rules are overridden by Permission Rules. This means that if a file or process matches both a Blocking/Isolation rule and a Permission rule, the action specified by the Permission rule will take precedence over the action specified by the Blocking/Isolation rule. For example, if a file has a reputation of SUSPECT_MALWARE and a Blocking/Isolation rule is set to terminate any SUSPECT_MALWARE file that runs, but a Permission rule is set to allow and log any file that runs from a specific path, the file will be allowed and logged if it runs from that path, regardless of its reputation. Permission rules are useful for tuning the behavior of VMware Carbon Black Cloud Endpoint Standard and preventing false positives or unnecessary blocks1.

The other statements are false or irrelevant. Blocking & Isolation rules are not overridden by Upload Rules. Upload Rules are rules that specify which files and metadata are uploaded to the Carbon Black Cloud for analysis and reputation. Upload Rules do not affect the prevention or detection capabilities of VMware Carbon Black Cloud Endpoint Standard2. Permission Rules are not overridden by Blocking & Isolation rules. As explained above, Permission Rules have a higher priority than Blocking & Isolation rules and can override their actions. Upload Rules are not overridden by Blocking & Isolation rules. Upload Rules and Blocking & Isolation rules are independent of each other and do not affect each other’s functionality. References:

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:
