Palo Alto Networks Certified Detection and Remediation Analyst (PCDRA) — Question 69

What is the function of WildFire for Cortex XDR?

Answer options

• A. WildFire runs in the cloud and analyses alert data from the XDR agent to check for behavioural threats.
• B. WildFire is the engine that runs on the local agent and determines whether behavioural threats are occurring on the endpoint.
• C. WildFire accepts and analyses a sample to provide a verdict.
• D. WildFire runs entirely on the agent to quickly analyse samples and provide a verdict.

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because WildFire is designed to accept samples for analysis and provide a verdict on them. Options A, B, and D inaccurately describe WildFire's function by suggesting it primarily analyzes alert data or operates on the local agent, which does not align with its main purpose of sample analysis.
