Log Management
Centralized log collection, real-time search, cross-source correlation and compliant retention, turning raw log data from every part of your environment into searchable security and operational intelligence.
What we deliver
Collect and normalize logs from every source (servers, firewalls, applications, cloud services, endpoints and network devices) into a single, searchable platform.
Search billions of log events in seconds. Query across data sources, apply filters, correlate events and build investigation timelines, from any browser, in real time.
Correlate events across different log sources, identifying attack patterns, policy violations and anomalies that are invisible when each log source is viewed in isolation.
Define alert rules on log data that trigger on specific events, threshold breaches, anomalous activity patterns or compliance violations, with routing to your preferred channels.
Retain logs for the periods required by your compliance framework (GDPR, PCI-DSS, ISO 27001, Cyber Essentials), with tamper-evident storage and audit-ready export.
Pre-built compliance reports for Cyber Essentials, PCI-DSS and ISO 27001 audit requirements, providing auditors with the evidence they need from a single source of truth.
How it works
Every engagement follows the same five steps: baseline the current state, design the target model, roll out in stages, operate it, and improve against measurements.
Assess
Baseline the current state, name the gaps and put the success criteria in writing.
Design
Architect the target operating model and the toolchain it needs.
Deploy
Implement, configure and validate in a staged rollout.
Operate
24/7 management with contracted response times and proactive monitoring.
Improve
Continuous improvement driven by metrics, incidents and changes in the business.
Every engagement runs under a written SLA: a commitment, not a best-effort promise.
Dedicated engineers who know your stack. No generalist help-desk tier in between.
Service reviews every two weeks, roadmap updates every quarter.
The technologies we run this on
Knowledge Hub
What we have written about running and managing technology, collected in one place.
01How long should we retain logs?
Start from the statutory minimum and add what incident investigations need. Hot storage is expensive and archive storage is cheap, so a two-tier setup usually meets compliance needs at a reasonable cost.
02Which logs should we collect?
Security events, authentication, privilege changes, configuration changes and application errors come first. Collecting everything is expensive, and it buries what actually matters in noise.
03Does log collection slow systems down?
Not when it is configured properly. We use local buffering and asynchronous shipping, so the application never waits when the collector is unreachable. Setups that ship synchronously really can stall production.
04How do you ensure log integrity?
Immutable storage and access logging. To stop an attacker from erasing their tracks, the log store must not be modifiable with production privileges; without that separation, logs are not reliable evidence after an incident.
05How fast is search?
It depends on how indexing is configured. Searching recent days in the hot tier takes seconds; searching the archive takes minutes. We decide which data stays hot based on how you actually investigate.
