Haha, you guys are all overthinking this. It's obviously a Error event - the malicious actor was trying to do something bad, so it's an error, plain and simple. Brielle's got this on lockdown!

Warning? Really? I mean, the question specifically says Brielle observed the malicious actor logging in, so I think it's gotta be a Success audit. Who cares if it was malicious, it was still a successful login.

Nah, I don't think it's a Failure audit either. Based on the scenario, the malicious actor was able to access the network device, so I'd say Brielle identified a Warning event.

Ah, but a Success audit would indicate a legitimate login, not a malicious one. I'd say Brielle identified a Failure audit, as the login attempt was unauthorized and should have been blocked.

Hmm, this is a tricky one. I think Brielle identified a Success audit since the malicious actor was able to successfully log in, even though their actions were malicious.
