Explanation

Live terminal uses Python 3 with standard Python libraries to run Python commands and scripts on the endpoint. Live terminal does not support Python 2 or any custom or external Python libraries. Live terminal uses the Python interpreter embedded in the Cortex XDR agent, which is based on Python 3.7.4. The standard Python libraries are the modules that are included with the Python installation and provide a wide range of functionalities, such as operating system interfaces, network programming, data processing, and more. You can use the Python commands and scripts to perform advanced tasks or automation on the endpoint, such as querying system information, modifying files or registry keys, or running other applications.
