Question 26

When examining a raw DNS request event, you see a field called ContextProcessId_decimal. What is the purpose of that field?

    Correct Answer: C

    The ContextProcessId_decimal field represents the ContextProcessId decimal value for the parent process that made the DNS request. This means it identifies the process that initiated the DNS request, which is useful information when analyzing raw DNS request events. Knowing the parent process can help in tracing back the origin of the request and understanding the sequence of processes involved.

agree with D

ContextProcessId of DnsRequest event is equal to the TargetProcessId of the event that spawned the DnsRequest event.

VasiOnCacaoOption: D

Actually, here I also think it might be D. Look at this reddit post - https://www.reddit.com/r/crowdstrike/comments/hr1kyb/rename_contextprocessid_decimal_as/. In other words ContextProcessId is generated to enrich the TargetProcessId event and has the same value. The main event won't contain ContextProcessId event, but a TargetProcessId.

Not sure about D for this one it says TargetProcessID. NOT TargetProcessId_decimal. Both TargetProcessId and TargetProcessId_decimal are different things. I don't see a correct answer here?
