Security telemetry refers to the collection, processing, and analysis of security-relevant data from systems, applications, and network devices. This data includes authentication events, system calls, network flows, file modifications, and process executions.
The challenge with traditional security telemetry is that it can be manipulated. Attackers who gain sufficient privileges can delete logs, modify records, or disable monitoring entirely. This makes post-incident investigation difficult and can allow attacks to go undetected.
The DEEPSJVB security telemetry pipeline follows a structured approach to ensure data integrity:
The platform uses cryptographic techniques to ensure telemetry cannot be tampered with:
Each telemetry event is processed through a SHA-256 hash function, creating a unique cryptographic fingerprint. The hash captures the event data, timestamp, and source identifier.
Events are linked in a chain where each event's hash includes the hash of the previous event. This creates a hash chain where modifying any historical event would break the chain integrity.
To verify telemetry integrity, the system recalculates hashes and validates the chain. Any modification, deletion, or injection attempt becomes immediately detectable.
The platform processes several categories of security events:
Telemetry data is retained based on organizational requirements and regulatory obligations. The immutable storage design ensures that historical data remains verifiable throughout the retention period.
