By centralizing your mission-critical logs, metrics, traces, and events from all of your systems into one platform, Sumo Logic enables teams across development, security, and operations to operate from a single source of truth. While this unified approach is crucial for fast issue identification and minimizing downtime from infrastructure failures or security breaches, not everyone on your team needs access to every bit of data.
Our latest platform updates give you more granular control over user access, streamlining administration to keep your data secure and your teams working efficiently.
Tighten data access and improve search performance
Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) for indexes helps you control access to data in Sumo Logic when organized into indexes, such as partitions and scheduled views. Admins can limit data access at a granular level, including restricting which fields users can view. This enhances data privacy, improves security, and ensures that sensitive information is only accessible to those who need it–all while boosting the efficiency of your searches.
Control app content access within your org
Not every app needs to be visible to everyone in your organization. With this update, authorized users can control the visibility of installed app content, ensuring that only relevant data is accessible to the right people. This enhances privacy and security while reducing noise for end users, making collaboration more focused and efficient.
Lock down access with granular controls for API keys
Access keys are essential for installing collectors and using Sumo Logic APIs. But when an access key inherits the full permissions of the user who created it, it can potentially be used to access any API endpoint the creator has permission to use, putting sensitive data and systems at risk if compromised. With this update, you can now scope specific permissions for each access key, ensuring that it only has access to the endpoints necessary for the task at hand. This minimizes risks and helps keep your integrations and data more secure.
Keep integrations running smoothly through staff changes
When access keys are associated with the user account that created them, chaos can ensue when that user is deactivated or deleted, leading to broken workflows and integrations. With the introduction of service accounts, administrators can now manage API keys independently of user accounts, ensuring that integrations continue to run seamlessly–no matter who’s on the team.
Better manage your incident response playbooks
Playbooks are automated workflows that help you respond to specific events or incidents, but unintended executions can cause disruptions and errors. To give you more control, we’ve made it easier to manage which playbooks are active. Now you can toggle playbooks off while you’re managing them or when they’re no longer needed, helping you avoid disruptions and keep your incident response process running smoothly.
