Harlow & Finch's logs drawn as security-camera footage: the website, the server and logins each record event lines into one central, locked log store; a film-strip timeline shows recorded stretches, one unrecorded gap that is a blind spot, and a magnifier looking back at a past moment; and a footage check that the logs are recorded, kept long enough, in one searchable place and protected from tampering — with the two traps, 'nothing's wrong, so why keep logs?' and 'we've got logs somewhere', crossed out.

The Footage — Keeping Records So You Can Look Back

Your systems' logs are their footage — the recorded evidence of what happened. Without it you're blind, live and afterwards. So keep good footage: record the things that would matter if something went wrong, keep it long enough, in one place you can search, and protected from tampering — so that when something goes wrong, you can look back and know.

What you'll learn

  • See your systems' logs as their footage — and know that if something isn't recorded, you can't see it, live or later.
  • Record the things that would matter if something went wrong (who, what, when), and keep footage long enough for late-surfacing problems.
  • Bring logs into one place you can search, and protect the footage from an attacker wiping it.
  • See through the traps of 'nothing's wrong, so why keep logs?' and 'we've got logs somewhere'.
