The summariesonly=true option is a macro that modifies a correlation search to search only accelerated data. Accelerated data is the summary data that is generated by the data model acceleration process. Data model acceleration is a feature that speeds up searches and reports that use data models by pre-computing and storing the results of the data model queries. By using the summariesonly=true option, a correlation search can run faster and more efficiently, as it does not need to scan the raw events or the index time field extractions. However, the summariesonly=true option also requires that the data model acceleration is enabled and complete for the data model that the correlation search uses. Otherwise, the correlation search may not return any results or may miss some events that are not accelerated. References =

According to the Splunk Add-on Builder documentation, after managing source types and extracting fields, the key step that comes next in the Add-on Builder is to map to data models. Data models are predefined schemas that provide a common standard for organizing and naming data fields across different data sources. Splunk Enterprise Security uses the Splunk Common Information Model (CIM) to enable cross-source analysis and correlation of security events. The Add-on Builder helps you to map your data fields to the CIM data models, such as Authentication, Change, Endpoint, and others. You can use the Data Model Mapper tool to select the data models that are relevant to your data source and map the fields accordingly. You can also validate the data model mappings and preview the results. See Map to data models for more details.

The other options are not the correct steps that come next in the Add-on Builder. Validate and package is the last step in the Add-on Builder, where you can check the quality and readiness of your add-on and create a package file for distribution. See Validate and package for more details. Configure data collection is the first step in the Add-on Builder, where you can specify the method and parameters for collecting data from your data source. See Configure data collection for more details. Create alert actions is an optional step in the Add-on Builder, where you can build custom alert actions or adaptive response actions for Splunk Enterprise Security. See [Create alert actions] for more details. Therefore, the correct answer is D. Map to data models. References =

The way to navigate to the list of currently-enabled ES correlation searches is to use the Content Management page in Splunk Enterprise Security. The Content Management page allows you to view, enable, disable, and edit the content items that are included in Splunk Enterprise Security, such as correlation searches, dashboards, reports, and lookups. To access the Content Management page, you need to select Configure > Content > Content Management from the Splunk ES menu bar. Then, you can filter the content items by Type and Status to view only the correlation searches that are enabled. You can also use other filters, such as App, Domain, or Owner, to further refine your view12. References = 1: Content Management - Splunk Documentation - View content items. 2: Content Management - Splunk Documentation - Enable or disable content items.

 The urgency of a notable event is a value that indicates how important or urgent the event is for investigation and response. The urgency of a notable event is determined by two fields: the priority and the severity. The priority is a value that is assigned to an asset or an identity based on how critical or valuable it is for the organization. The priority can be unknown, low, medium, high, or critical. The severity is a value that is assigned to a notable event based on how serious or harmful the event is for the security posture. The severity can be unknown, informational, low, medium, high, or critical. The urgency of a notable event is calculated by combining the priority and the severity values using a lookup table called urgency_lookup. The urgency can be informational, low, medium, high, or critical. You can use the urgency field to prioritize the investigation of notable events in Splunk Enterprise Security. References =
