How to reduce log noise and fight SOC alert fatigue

Do you ever feel like you’re drowning in data? From endpoint logs and firewall events to database auditing and cloud metrics, the sheer amount of data is overwhelming. While telemetry data is crucial for threat detection, incident response, and compliance, it also brings a major challenge: log noise. Log noise obscures meaningful security signals. If left unchecked, you risk increased false positives, overloading security tools, higher SIEM licensing costs, and, most importantly, SOC alert fatigue.

Current challenges in log and telemetry data management

Today, most enterprises use a security log analytics solution or SIEM (Security Information & Event Management), but analytics are only as good as the data fed into your solution. If you’re missing data sources or are failing to extract full value from the data, you won’t see the big picture. This is an issue new customers commonly mention to NXLog. That’s why one of our key goals is to provide a solid data collection layer that ensures all relevant data is collected and properly fed into the SIEM.

Leveraging Okta logs for improved security monitoring

Most corporate environments require a login, and Identity and Access Management (IAM) is a solution that helps manage that process in different ways. IAM ensures that only the necessary people can access the relevant IT resources. Each user, device or service is assigned a unique digital identity. So, when an employee logs into a company system, IAM confirms that person’s identity. This might involve a login/password check, multi-factor authentication, or both.
