Operations | Monitoring | ITSM | DevOps | Cloud

With almost every blog you read about monitoring, troubleshooting, or more recently, the observability of modern application stacks, you’ve probably read a statement saying that complexity is growing as a demand for more elasticity increases which makes management of these applications increasingly difficult. This blog will be no exception, but there’s a good reason for that: we just enabled the first Sumo Logic customers with powerful new tools to tackle these exact challenges.

During Sumo Logic’s Illuminate user conference, Heath Hendrickson, senior security architect at the Clorox company, and Gary Conner, senior threat protection lead, presented how they are leveraging Sumo Logic across security operations, threat hunting, IT operations, and more.

At the recent Illuminate conference, Dave Sudia from GoSpotCheck shared the process that led them to choosing Sumo Logic for their observability needs.

Aurora, a hosted relational database service available on the Amazon cloud, is a popular solution for teams that want to be able to work with tooling that is compatible with MySQL and PostgreSQL without running an actual MySQL or PostgreSQL database. In order to leverage Aurora’s benefits fully, it’s critical to log and analyze the various types of monitoring data that are available from an Aurora environment.

The global security community recently learned of a supply chain attack against SolarWinds via their Orion® Platform. In this blog we are providing recommendations for Sumo Logic customers to gain a deeper understanding of how to utilize available Indicators of Compromise (IOCs) within our Cloud SIEM offerings to determine your exposure to the attack. Additionally, we’re sharing targeted search recommendations from our Sumo Logic Special Operations (or SpecOps) threat hunting team.

Sumo Logic has reviewed the announced breach on December 8, 2020 by FireEye and their subsequent public release of over 300 countermeasure rules. We are continuing to analyze the available information and would like to share this update to all existing and prospective customers interested in how our Sumo Logic services can assist with this development.
