Splunk SOAR Certified Automation Developer SPLK-2003 Question # 13 Topic 2 Discussion

The correct answer is C because the best way to restrict the execution of playbooks to members of the admin role is to make sure the Execute Playbook capability is removed from all roles except admin. The Execute Playbook capability is a permission that allows a user to run any playbook on any container. By default, all roles have this capability, but it can be removed or added in the Phantom UI by going to Administration > User Management > Roles. Removing this capability from all roles except admin will ensure that only admin users can execute playbooks. See Splunk SOAR Documentation for more details. To ensure that only members of the admin role can execute specific playbooks on the Phantom server, the most effective approach is to manage role-based access controls (RBAC) directly. By configuring the system to remove the "Execute Playbook" capability from all roles except for the admin role, you can enforce this rule. This method leverages Phantom's built-in RBAC mechanisms to restrict playbook execution privileges. It is a straightforward and secure way to ensure that only users with the necessary administrative privileges can initiate the execution of sensitive or critical playbooks, thus maintaining operational security and control.
