A SOC manager has a weekly report that is manually run every Monday. The manager wants to automate this so the report is generated and emailed to the team every Monday at 8:00 AM. What should the manager do in Cortex Cloud?

Duplicate the report and manually run it every Monday, then export the PDF and email it to the team.

Edit the report and configure a schedule to run every Monday at 8:00 AM, and add the team's email addresses to the report's sharing settings.

Delete the existing report and create a new one each week with the same parameters.

Create a dashboard with the same widgets and share it with the team, then rely on the dashboard to update automatically.

A SOC manager has a report that is scheduled to run daily at 9:00 AM. The report takes a long time to generate and sometimes the email is not sent because the report generation times out. The manager wants to ensure the report is delivered reliably. What should the manager do?

Duplicate the report and schedule the duplicate to run 30 minutes after the original, so at least one version is likely to succeed.

Edit the report to reduce the data volume by narrowing the time range or adding filters, and adjust the schedule to run during off-peak hours.

Change the report to a dashboard and share it with the team, so they can view the data in real time.

Increase the report's timeout setting to allow more time for generation.
