Mastering Enterprise IT Logging and Monitoring: A Comprehensive Risk Management Blueprint
Course Overview This comprehensive course is designed to equip IT professionals with the knowledge and skills needed to master enterprise IT logging and monitoring. Participants will learn how to design and implement a robust logging and monitoring system that meets the needs of their organization, and how to use this system to identify and mitigate potential security risks.
Course Objectives - Understand the importance of logging and monitoring in enterprise IT
- Design and implement a comprehensive logging and monitoring system
- Configure and manage logging and monitoring tools
- Analyze log data to identify potential security risks
- Develop a risk management plan to mitigate identified risks
- Implement incident response procedures
- Continuously monitor and improve the logging and monitoring system
Course Outline Module 1: Introduction to Enterprise IT Logging and Monitoring
- Overview of logging and monitoring in enterprise IT
- Benefits of logging and monitoring
- Challenges and limitations of logging and monitoring
- Best practices for logging and monitoring
Module 2: Logging Fundamentals
- Types of logs (system, application, security)
- Log formats (syslog, JSON, XML)
- Log levels (debug, info, warning, error, critical)
- Log rotation and retention
Module 3: Monitoring Fundamentals
- Types of monitoring (real-time, batch, interactive)
- Monitoring tools ( Nagios, Prometheus, Grafana)
- Monitoring metrics (CPU, memory, disk usage)
- Alerting and notification systems
Module 4: Logging and Monitoring Tools
- ELK Stack (Elasticsearch, Logstash, Kibana)
