- Use append-oriented duplicate-key tables and time-based retention.
- Index user, source IP, action and message where investigation requires it.
- Keep source-specific attributes flexible without flattening every field.
- Apply Doris users, roles, grants and row policies around sensitive datasets.
Retain the trail without claiming a full SIEM
Centralize security and audit logs
Keep Windows Security, identity, database, cloud and network audit events searchable inside your environment.
Discuss this use caseThe audit question arrives after the evidence is gone
Critical audit trails exist, but they live in separate consoles, event viewers and database files with inconsistent retention.
- Identity and database events are stored separately.
- Retention policies vary by system.
- Cross-source investigation requires manual exports.
- Sensitive records cannot be sent to every hosted tool.

BUILD PLAN / AUDIT FOUNDATION
Make the trail consistent before adding more detection logic
This is a retained, searchable audit foundation—not a claim to replace a full SIEM. Start with the source whose evidence is hardest to recover today.
- Use security, database audit and network ingestion templates.
- Review accounts in Users & Roles and permissions in Grants.
- Use SQL Studio for evidence queries and save the approved patterns.
- Monitor access and configuration drift as the environment evolves.
