SOC Analyst with Splunk ES Online Training FAQ'S

What is the role of a SOC Analyst?

A SOC Analyst monitors security alerts, investigates incidents, analyzes logs, and ensures the organization’s systems stay secure.

How does Splunk ES help SOC operations?

Splunk ES provides dashboards, correlation searches, notable events, threat intel, and analytics to identify and investigate cyber threats.

What is a Notable Event?

A Notable Event is an alert generated by Splunk ES when a correlation search detects suspicious or malicious activity.

Explain MITRE ATT&CK.

MITRE ATT&CK is a global framework of adversary behaviors used by SOC teams to detect attack techniques and map incidents.

What is Risk-Based Alerting (RBA)?

RBA assigns risk scores to events and generates alerts only when cumulative risk indicates a real threat, reducing alert fatigue.
