Microsoft Security Operations Analyst Associate SC-200 Practice Question
You are performing an advanced hunt in Microsoft Defender XDR. Your goal is to list every device where a user executed the built-in net.exe utility to add a local user account at any time during the last 24 hours. You start with the DeviceProcessEvents table. Which Kusto Query Language (KQL) filter meets the requirement?
| where FileName has "net" and ActionType == "NetworkConnectionInitiated" and Timestamp > ago(1d)
| where FileName == "net.exe" and ProcessCommandLine has "user" and ActionType == "ProcessCreated" and Timestamp > ago(1d)
| where FileName == "net.exe" and ProcessCommandLine has "group" and Timestamp > ago(1d)
| where InitiatingProcessFileName == "net.exe" and ProcessCommandLine contains "localgroup" and Timestamp > ago(7d)
The DeviceProcessEvents table stores process creation data, so the hunt must restrict results to the ProcessCreated action. Filtering on FileName == "net.exe" ensures only the Windows Net command is returned. The string "user" is part of the typical command line when adding a local account (for example, net user bob P@ssw0rd /add). The function ago(1d) limits results to the last 24 hours. Options that search for the word "group", use the NetworkConnectionInitiated action, look back seven days, or filter on InitiatingProcessFileName do not satisfy the scenario's technical or time-range requirements.
