Understanding security logging and monitoring failures
When monitoring the security posture of an organization, cybersecurity professionals need to ensure all their systems, devices, and applications are providing sufficient logs to their Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) and their logging servers for accountability. If web applications and web servers do not provide sufficient logging, it is very challenging for cybersecurity professionals to detect and determine what occurred during a system breach.
Security logging and monitoring involves the logs of authentication attempts, their successes and failures, error and system warnings, usage of application programming interface (API) calls, port scanning, and so on, which may indicate a potential threat or cyber-attack against the system.
