Question 640
The hunt asks whether a malicious program modified a Windows autorun registry key. Which response best meets the security operations requirement?
Explanation
Correct Answer
DeviceRegistryEvents exposes supported registry changes and initiating activity. This directly addresses the requirement to find registry persistence changes.
Incorrect Answers
DeviceProcessEvents records process creation context and initiating process relationships. This addresses hunt for suspicious process ancestry; it does not directly satisfy find registry persistence changes.
DeviceFileEvents captures supported file creation and modification activity. Its intended use is to detect suspicious endpoint file placement, whereas this case requires the analyst to find registry persistence changes.
DeviceNetworkEvents describes endpoint network connections and their process context. That action focuses on identify outbound endpoint network connections rather than the specified need to find registry persistence changes.
