Threat Hunting in Modern Infrastructures Threat hunting is a proactive practice that looks for hidden threats across cloud, on‑premises, and edge systems. It combines careful human analysis with signals from logs, traces, endpoints, and network activity. In today’s landscape, attackers mix methods across many layers, so defenders need a wide view and a clear process. Modern infrastructures mix microservices, containers, serverless functions, and remote work. This diversity creates new blind spots and data streams. Hunters must understand how different parts of the stack interact, from identity management to data flows, to spot subtle signs of compromise. ...

Security Operations: Monitoring, Detection and Response Security operations combine watching systems, spotting threats, and acting quickly to protect people and data. The goal is to keep services available, trustable, and safe from harm. A clear process helps both small teams and large organizations respond calmly and effectively. Monitoring Monitoring means collecting data from logs, devices, applications, and networks. It is the first line of defense and helps you see what is happening in real time. Good monitoring looks for what matters: login times, device health, unusual outbound connections, and changes to critical files. Start simple: a central log store, a few dashboards, and straightforward alerts. ...

Observability and Security Operations Centers Observability and security are two sides of the same coin. Observability helps you understand how your systems behave, while a Security Operations Center (SOC) focuses on detecting and stopping threats. When these functions share data and processes, you gain earlier warning signs, faster investigations, and stronger resilience. Today, successful SOCs depend on good observability. Logs, metrics, and traces provide context for security events and help verify whether an alert is genuine. By streaming security signals into a centralized platform, teams can correlate anomalies with deployment changes, user activity, or misconfigurations, reducing false positives and speeding up response. ...

SIEM and SOC Essentials: Security Operations Center A Security Operations Center (SOC) and a SIEM tool work together to protect a organization. They help teams see what is happening, decide what matters, and act quickly. This article explains the basics, common setups, and practical steps you can use. A SIEM collects logs from many places—servers, firewalls, cloud apps, and user devices. It then normalizes data, links related events, and flags suspicious patterns. A SOC is the people and processes that respond to those alerts. Together they turn raw data into timely alerts and clear guidance. ...
