QuestionQ49

VerifiedSearch and Investigation Tools

Falcon has detected and blocked credential-dumping activity on a domain controller. No obvious credential-dumping tools were identified in the detection.

What should be the next step in the investigation?

Explanation

Investigating the events immediately before, during, and after a credential-dumping alert can reveal the initiating process, execution chain, affected accounts, and related lateral-movement activity. An Advanced Event Search focused on the alert’s surrounding time window provides the necessary endpoint context when no obvious dumping tool is identified.
