Audit Logging & Monitoring Scanner

Verify that security events are properly logged and monitored in your application.

Without proper logging and monitoring, security breaches go undetected. Our scanner checks for evidence of logging infrastructure, error tracking, security event monitoring, and whether failed authentication attempts are recorded.

What This Scanner Does

Checks for logging infrastructure indicators (Sentry, LogRocket, Datadog), analyzes error handling for proper logging, tests whether failed auth attempts generate different responses suggesting logging, and checks for security monitoring headers.

Why It Matters

The average time to detect a data breach is 277 days. Without security logging and monitoring, you may never know your application was compromised. OWASP ranks insufficient logging as a Top 10 vulnerability because it enables all other attacks to succeed undetected.

Common Findings

  • No error tracking service detected
  • Failed login attempts not producing audit events
  • Missing security event monitoring
  • No alerting mechanism for suspicious activity
