# Analyzing Security Logs with Splunk

## When to Use

- Investigating a security incident that requires correlation across multiple log sources
- Hunting for adversary activity using known TTPs and IOCs
- Building detection rules for specific attack patterns
- Reconstructing an incident timeline from disparate log sources
- Analyzing authentication anomalies, lateral movement, or data exfiltration patterns

**Do not use** for real-time packet-level analysis; use Wireshark or Zeek for full packet capture analysis.
