Your logs are more than just records — they’re a goldmine of threat intelligence. Here’s how to make the most of them:
1. Look for Process Anomalies
Unusual parent-child process relationships (e.g., winword.exe spawning powershell.exe) can indicate malicious behavior.
🛠 Use WithSecure Elements EDR to visualize process trees and spot anomalies.
2. Track Lateral Movement Attempts
Repeated logins across multiple endpoints or use of remote tools like PsExec can signal internal reconnaissance.
3. Flag Suspicious Persistence Mechanisms
Scheduled tasks, registry changes, and startup folder modifications are common persistence tactics.
📌 Logs tell a story — if you know how to read them.
