Decisive SOC, powered by GenAI

Get instant context, actionable summaries, and remedial guidance.

AI in Log360 explained in 4 minutes  
 

Security teams are overwhelmed by a flood of alerts every day. According to Gartner, 57% of organizations say their SOCs struggle with aggregating and correlating security data effectively, which slows down timely threat detection and response. In the face of alert fatigue and data overload, modern security operations centers (SOCs) need more than visibility—they need contextual intelligence.

Powered by Zoho’sZia, Log360—a unified security information and event management (SIEM) platform—uses generative AI (GenAI) to transform security events into concise insights that highlight the who, what, when, and how, so analysts can focus on what matters. By bringing together the root cause, key entities, and remediation steps in one view, Zia Insights eliminates the need to piece together fragmented data, thereby accelerating threat understanding and response.

How Zia Insights works

Deeper security intelligence from Zia

Log categorization

To accelerate log analysis and improve response in SIEM, Zia Insights provides contextual insights based on each log's type and behavior patterns. When users invoke Zia Insights, logs are interpreted as error logs, security logs, audit logs, or crash logs, enabling the delivery of targeted recommendations and remediation steps aligned with the nature of the log.

Insights

Zia doesn't just summarize logs; it understands them. It evaluates detection patterns, event sequences, system activity, and user behavior to provide a contextual breakdown of each detected event. Key entities involved—such as usernames, IP addresses, endpoints, applications, and event sources—are highlighted and connected to a narrative that explains how the event unfolded.

For example, a brute-force login attempt summary might include:

  • A spike in failed logins from a single IP
  • The targeted user accounts
  • The time window and frequency
  • The attack sequence—multiple failed login attempts followed by a successful system login.

This helps analysts assess risk levels and act with confidence.

MITRE ATT&CK® mapping

MITRE ATT&CK® mapping

Zia Insights leverages the threat modelling framework MITRE ATT&CK® to map observed behavior to known Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures (TTPs).

Each relevant event will be mapped to a:

  • Tactic Name (e.g., Privilege Escalation)
  • Technique ID (e.g., T1078)
  • Technique Name (e.g., Valid Accounts)

This mapping enhances incident triage and helps align investigation efforts with a globally recognized threat taxonomy.

Potential mitigation guidance

Zia Insight's Summary doesn’t stop at surfacing anomalies; it goes a step further by offering context-aware mitigation and remediation suggestions, tailored to the nature of the log data. Whether you're reviewing a failed login attempt or investigating a crash error, Zia Insights provides practical and relevant next steps to help you respond with confidence.

Potential mitigation guidance

Here’s how Zia Insights adapts its guidance across
different log types:

 

Error and crash logs

Zia Insights delivers remediation guidance tailored to the nature of each log, whether it's an error, crash, audit, security, or anomaly event. By interpreting the context and identifying relevant indicators, Zia Insights provides targeted recommendations that help contain incidents, troubleshoot issues, and ensure compliance. This focused guidance reduces guesswork and accelerates response across a wide range of log scenarios.

 

Anomalies

For behavioral anomalies like off-hours logons or access from unrecognized IPs, Zia Insights provides investigation-first guidance that mimics a SOC analyst’s thinking:

  • Review related logs to validate the anomaly and rule out false positives.
  • Correlate activity with recent deployments, configuration changes, or admin actions.
  • Contain the situation by temporarily restricting affected accounts or IPs.
  • Recommend immediate next steps, such as credential resets or session reviews, to restore security posture.
 

Security logs

Suspicious behaviors—such as unauthorized UAC modifications or triggered security alerts—trigger potential mitigation steps, like verifying the legitimacy of the change and rolling back unauthorized actions.

 

Audit logs

If Zia Insights detects policy violations or unauthorized access changes, it provides compliance-oriented actions, such as reinforcing access controls or enabling real-time alerts for sensitive audit events.

Configurable AI with Azure OpenAI (BYOK)

Zia Insights is built on a Bring Your Own Key (BYOK) model using Azure OpenAI, allowing organizations to retain full control over their data and model usage. Once you configure your own Azure OpenAI key, Zia can securely generate insights tailored to your log data, ensuring compliance and privacy without compromising on analytical depth.

 

Investigate in seconds

Security teams are buried under a mountain of alerts, logs, and fragmented context. Zia Insights helps you cut through the noise, so you can stop searching and start understanding.

Whether you're chasing down a suspicious login, unusual system behavior, or a complex incident, Zia Insights provides immediate answers to your most critical questions:

  • What happened?
  • Who was involved?
  • When and how did it unfold?
  • What can I do next?
 

Smarter threat investigation with contextual AI

Zia Insights enhances every stage of the security analysis lifecycle. By processing alerts, audit trails, and incidents, Zia Insights delivers actionable insights, surfaces key risks, and enriches events with contextual information. It also automatically maps relevant MITRE ATT&CK® techniques, suggests potential mitigation steps, and offers troubleshooting guidance, so your SOCs can take decisive action, faster.
