QUESTION: 16

What parameter contributes to the magnitude score of an offense?

Option A : Confidentiality

Option B : Availability

Option C : Integrity

Option D : Credibility

Correct Answer: D

Explanation/Reference:

In IBM QRadar, the magnitude score of an offense is influenced by several parameters, one of which is credibility. Here’s a

detailed explanation: Magnitude Score: The magnitude score represents the severity and importance of an offense in QRadar.

It is a composite score that helps prioritize incidents for investigation. Credibility Parameter: Credibility assesses the reliability

of the event source and the likelihood that the event represents a real threat. Higher credibility indicates that the source is

reliable and the threat is more likely to be legitimate. Contribution to Magnitude: The credibility parameter directly influences

the magnitude score by weighting the offense higher if the credibility of the event ishigh. This ensures that more reliable and

potentially more severe incidents are prioritized. Credibility is one of the key factors used by QRadar to assess and prioritize

security incidents, ensuring effective incident management. ReferencesIBM Security QRadar SIEM and IBM Security QRadar
