A worked example
Shown solved, with the whole explanation open: this is what every question here carries.

Correct.
Checked against help.splunk.com, August 2026Concept
The standard is delivered as models rather than as a document, so it can be applied by the software rather than followed by hand. That is what makes compliance checkable.
Why C
Splunk states that the CIM add-on contains a collection of pre-configured data models that you can apply to your data at search time.
