Description: Security events are logs that may indicate an incident or security breach in a computer system or network. These events are crucial for detecting and responding to threats, as they provide detailed information about unusual or unauthorized activities. The collection and analysis of these events is carried out through logging and observability techniques, which allow system administrators and security teams to monitor the behavior of applications and infrastructure. Security events can include unauthorized access attempts, changes to system configuration, suspicious activities on the network, and any other actions that may compromise the integrity, confidentiality, or availability of data. The ability to log and observe these events is fundamental for risk management and the implementation of effective security policies, as it enables organizations to identify behavioral patterns that could indicate an imminent attack or security breach. In an increasingly complex and threatening environment, the importance of security events in logging and observability cannot be underestimated, as they are the first line of defense in protecting an organization’s digital assets.
