FAQs

Monitoring Firewall logs is important to keep your network secure and save it from security breaches. As the logs contain data of all the activities occurring on firewalls, it quickly identifies the factors that can harm the network’s security.

Each transaction, activity, and connection occurring in the network consists of the source IP, destination IP, the protocols, the ports, and a reference to the firewall rule that is applied to the network traffic. Firewall logs consist of such log data, which can be helpful to drill down each firewall activity to identify the cause of issues and resolve them effectively.
