Evolving regulations. Rising ransomware. Mounting pressure. Your SIEM should strengthen your security posture — not force impossible choices.

Five Strategies Every Security Team Should Use

1. Correlate Events Across Multiple Sources

A phishing attack rarely happens in isolation. By correlating email events, firewall logs, authentication attempts, and endpoint activity, you can surface patterns that point to real threats — fast.

2. Monitor Email Authentication in Real Time

SPF, DKIM, and DMARC only help if you track their real-world effectiveness. Graylog enables real-time visibility into authentication failures and spoofing attempts that bypass filtering controls.

3. Detect Anomalous User Behavior

Once attackers steal credentials, they rely on subtle behaviors to evade detection. Baseline identity activity to spot anomalies like unusual logins, abnormal data transfers, or new geolocations.

4. Automate Response Workflows

When phishing works, seconds matter. Automation reduces dwell time with rapid actions such as disabling accounts, isolating endpoints, and triggering password resets.

5. Measure and Improve Security Awareness

Awareness training can’t be a checkbox. Graylog helps you connect human behavior with real incident data to refine training, track participation, and build measurable resilience.
