What happens during the ProcessRollup2 event type?

The ProcessRollup2 event type signifies that a new process was created. This event is relevant for tracking the lifecycle of processes within an operating system, which is critical for security monitoring and incident response activities. When a new process is instantiated, it provides valuable information regarding potential unauthorized activities or malicious behavior that may compromise system integrity. Understanding when processes are created helps responders identify anomalous behavior, enabling them to investigate further and respond appropriately.

The other event types do not convey the same information about process creation. For instance, the event indicating a process was deleted pertains to a different aspect of process lifecycle management, while accessing sensitive files and closing network connections address different dimensions of system security that involve data protection and network integrity, respectively.
