What is Incident Logs?

What does 'Incident Logs' mean?

Incident Logs in Secure Web Gateways (SWGs) are detailed records generated and maintained by the system to capture security events, policy violations, and suspicious activities detected during web traffic monitoring. These logs include information such as timestamps, user identities, accessed URLs, blocked threats, and actions taken by the gateway. Incident logs are important for security teams to analyze incidents, investigate potential breaches, and confirm accountability. They support compliance with regulatory requirements by providing an auditable trail of security events. Additionally, incident logs help organizations improve their threat detection capabilities, refine security policies, and strengthen overall network protection.
