Question 4

In which Splunk configuration is the SEDCMD used?

    Correct Answer: A

    The SEDCMD setting is used to mask or truncate raw data and is configured within the props.conf file. This configuration allows for modifications to event data before it is indexed, making it suitable for altering data that contains characters the third-party servers cannot process.
