Introduction to Security Sensors & Logging Management

Security sensors are a necessary, and critical part of any complete security infrastructure. They are the "data collectors" in a network and are responsible for gathering the critical information required for proper logging. With those logs, a centralized logging system can help put that data into perspective and help tell a better story about the events and possible security incidents occurring in your network. This course will cover what security sensors are, how to use them for proper logging, and how automated analysis can help detect and possibly mitigate, potentially damaging security incidents.
