Detecting Anomalies and Events with Elastic Agent
Elastic Agent is a powerful tool for collecting, processing, and analyzing system data. You'll learn the setup, configuration, and validation of Elastic Agent in an enterprise environment to enhance anomaly detection and security monitoring.
What you'll learn
Enterprises often face challenges in effectively detecting anomalies and events across their systems, exposing them to security vulnerabilities. In this course, Detecting Anomalies and Events with Elastic Agent, you'll explore how to use Elastic Agent to enhance anomaly detection in a live enterprise environment. First, you'll discover the setup and configuration of Elastic Agent to collect data from multiple sources. Next, you'll create and apply data collection policies to monitor critical logs, metrics, and security events. Finally, you'll simulate potential anomalies to validate Elastic Agent's effectiveness in detecting and responding to suspicious activity. By the end of this course, you'll have the skills needed to implement effective anomaly detection to protect and monitor enterprise systems.
