15. Detect and respond to security threats in real time
Security Analytics: Ingest sources
Works, but requires normalization to a
standard schema like ECS or OCSF
Works well including ECS mapping,
important to use the OSS packages and
connect through Logstash-oss for awful
license checks.
Well documented solution packages by
Amazon, downside it’s focussed on AWS
