CHALLENGES
The client faced challenges related to security and payment. Their existing log management system was inefficient and lacked the capabilities to detect and respond to security threats effectively. The manual log analysis process was time-consuming and prone to errors, resulting in delays in issue resolution and increased operational costs.
