In this task, you are given the attached “Background Information” reference document containing a security operations scenario and associated helpdesk ticket artifacts. You will access a virtual lab environment to investigate and interact with the affected hardware discussed in the “Background Information” document. Next, you will create an incident response report using the attached “Incident Reporting Template” document to identify the steps taken in detecting, investigating, and remediating the issues within the virtual lab and to recommend next steps.
Your submission will include both your completed incident response report and a screenshot evidence document generated by the virtual lab environment. Additional details for interacting with the virtual lab environment, including the use of its available tools and the screenshot evidence document, can be found in the attached “Virtual Lab Supplementary Instructions” document.
SCENARIO
Refer to the scenario and artifacts in the attached “Background Information” document.
