the problem

Logs without purpose

starting point

A modern application platform generating telemetry across APIs, identity, edge security, cloud services and configuration changes — but no prioritised view of which events actually indicate meaningful risk, or what the SOC should do about them.

what i did

Prioritised detections, wired to the architecture

engagement flow

How the engagement flowed

Three phases, three steps — click any step to see what happened and why it mattered.

outcome

Detection a SOC can actually act on

Value created

Monitoring teams focus on events that indicate meaningful risk rather than collecting logs without purpose — detection that a SOC can actually act on.
