Monitoring

Continuous observation of systems, networks, and identities for signs of compromise or misuse.

Monitoring is the continuous observation that feeds detection, combining endpoint (EDR), network (NDR/IDS), and identity telemetry so a threat that hides in one layer surfaces in another. Effective programs watch for both known signatures and behavioral anomalies (UEBA). Tuning is constant — as the environment changes, yesterday’s good rule becomes today’s noise or blind spot.
