What is the difference between presets and datasets in XQL?

AA dataset is a Cortex data lake data source only; presets are built-in data source.

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: B

The difference between presets and datasets in XQL is that a dataset is a built-in or third-party data source, while a preset is a group of XDR data fields. A dataset is a collection of data that you can query and analyze using XQL. A dataset can be a Cortex data lake data source, such as endpoints, alerts, incidents, or network flows, or a third-party data source, such as AWS CloudTrail, Azure Activity Logs, or Google Cloud Audit Logs. A preset is a predefined set of XDR data fields that are relevant for a specific use case, such as process execution, file operations, or network activity. A preset can help you simplify and standardize your XQL queries by selecting the most important fields for your analysis. You can use presets with any Cortex data lake data source, but not with third-party data sources.Reference:

This question is as clear as mud. I'm just going to guess and hope for the best. What's the difference between a dataset and a preset anyway? Sounds like a fancy way to say 'data'.

I'm going with option D. Datasets are third-party data sources, and presets are the built-in ones. Easy peasy, lemon squeezy!

Hmm, I'm leaning towards option B. Datasets are built-in or third-party sources, and presets group XDR data fields. But I could use a refresher on the differences.

That's correct, datasets are the sources of data and presets help organize the data fields in XDR.

I think you're right, datasets can come from different sources and presets organize data fields.

I believe datasets are like databases, while presets are just individual fields. So, the correct answer is C.

Ah, this one's tricky. I think a dataset is a third-party data source, while presets are built-in data sources. But I could be mixing that up with something else.
