Delete Detected Files

Try in Splunk SOAR

Description

This playbook acts upon events where a file has been determined to be malicious (ie webshells being dropped on an end host). Before deleting the file, we run a "more" command on the file in question to extract its contents. We then run a delete on the file in question.
