*Logs for Security* is Sumo Logic's full set of features that leverage logs for security use cases. First, you collect security log and event data from your infrastructure and applications, on-premises and in-cloud. Then, you analyze your security data with pre-built and custom dashboards, out-of-the-box security apps, and robust queries.
