Security Observability is a technique of using logs, metrics, and traces to infer risk, monitor threats, and alert on breaches. It is a critical technique for security professionals to embrace. Security professionals use observation of system behavior to detect, understand, and stop new, unknown attacks. The Observe Data Lake approach gives customers the power they need to see how systems and people interact over time. Better security for less spend with Observe. We’ve been surveying the Observability field for years at Observe via our State of Observability Report, but this year is our first survey to focus on Security Observability. We talked to 500 security professionals to understand their current approach to security and how it’s intersecting with observability.
