Question 6

As a Next-Gen SIEM Engineer, you are responsible for managing and tuning correlation rules to improve the detection of potential security incidents.

  1. Increase the time window for detecting multiple failed login attempts to capture more data
  2. Add a condition to exclude known trusted IP addresses from triggering the rule
  3. Decrease the threshold for the number of failed login attempts required to trigger the rule
  4. Remove the condition for a successful login to simplify the rule

  1. Average GB/day for all sources (pre-parsing)
  2. Average GB/month for first and third-party sources (pre-parsing)
  3. Average GB/month for all sources (post-parsing)
  4. Average GB/day for third-party sources only (pre-parsing)
