Q: What types of log sources can Sekoia ingest?

Sekoia supports ingestion from cloud platforms like AWS, Azure and Google Cloud, endpoint protection tools, network firewalls and switches, email security gateways, identity providers and SaaS applications. The platform uses standardised parsing to normalise data from different sources so correlation rules work consistently regardless of the originating system.

We can help you automate your business with Sekoia and hundreds of other systems to improve efficiency and productivity. Get in touch if you’d like to discuss implementing Sekoia.

About Sekoia

Sekoia is a European-born cybersecurity platform that combines threat intelligence, SIEM capabilities and automated detection and response (XDR) in a single cloud-native solution. For Australian organisations looking beyond the traditional US-centric security vendor landscape, Sekoia offers a compelling alternative with strong threat intelligence curation and a modern architecture built for API-driven security operations.

The platform continuously ingests threat intelligence from its own research team, open-source feeds and industry sharing communities, then correlates that intelligence against your security telemetry in real time. This approach means detection rules are continuously updated based on emerging threat campaigns rather than relying solely on static signatures or historical patterns. For organisations dealing with sophisticated threat actors or operating in targeted industries, this intelligence-led approach provides materially better detection coverage.

What makes Sekoia particularly interesting from an automation perspective is its playbook engine and comprehensive API. Security detection, investigation and response workflows can be codified as automated playbooks that execute consistently every time — eliminating the variability that comes with manual incident handling. Our consulting team helps organisations design these automated security playbooks, connecting Sekoia to broader operational workflows including ticketing systems, communication platforms and compliance reporting tools.

The platform supports log ingestion from a wide range of sources including cloud infrastructure, endpoint protection, network devices and SaaS applications, making it practical for organisations with heterogeneous technology environments that need unified security visibility without vendor lock-in.

Sekoia FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about how Sekoia consultants can help with integration and implementation

How does Sekoia differ from traditional SIEM platforms?

Sekoia combines SIEM log management with curated threat intelligence and XDR response capabilities in a single platform, whereas traditional SIEMs typically require separate threat intelligence feeds and SOAR tools bolted on. The integrated approach means detection rules are automatically enriched with current threat context, reducing the manual correlation work that makes traditional SIEMs labour-intensive to operate.

Can Sekoia automated playbooks integrate with our existing business systems?

Yes — Sekoia playbooks can trigger actions in external systems through API calls, webhooks and pre-built connectors. We configure playbooks that create tickets in your ITSM platform, send notifications through your communication channels, update compliance logs and orchestrate responses across your security tool stack. The goal is making incident response repeatable and measurable rather than ad-hoc.

What types of log sources can Sekoia ingest?

How does Sekoia threat intelligence improve our detection capabilities?

Sekoia maintains a dedicated threat research team that produces actionable intelligence on active campaigns, threat actor techniques and indicators of compromise. This intelligence automatically enriches your security events with context — so when an alert fires, your analysts immediately see whether it matches a known campaign, what the likely objectives are and what related indicators to investigate.

Is Sekoia suitable for organisations with small security teams?

Sekoia is well-suited to lean security teams precisely because its automation capabilities reduce the manual workload that overwhelms small teams operating traditional SIEM platforms. Automated playbooks handle routine detection and response tasks, and the curated threat intelligence reduces the rule-writing burden. We help smaller teams configure Sekoia to maximise automated coverage while reserving analyst time for genuinely complex investigations.

Can AI enhance Sekoia detection and response workflows?

Sekoia detection data and threat intelligence can serve as inputs for AI-powered analysis that performs advanced threat hunting, anomaly detection and predictive risk scoring beyond what rule-based systems achieve alone. We build AI workflows that augment Sekoia automated playbooks with machine learning models trained on your specific environment to further reduce false positives and accelerate genuine threat identification.

How it works

We work hand-in-hand with you to implement Sekoia

As Sekoia consultants we work with you hand in hand build more efficient and effective operations. Here’s how we will work with you to automate your business and integrate Sekoia with integrate and automate 800+ tools.

Step 1

Security Operations Review

We assess your current security monitoring capabilities, log sources, detection coverage and incident response procedures. This review identifies visibility gaps, quantifies alert volumes and documents the integration requirements that will shape your Sekoia deployment.

Step 2

Platform Architecture and Log Source Planning

Based on the review, we design the Sekoia deployment architecture — defining which log sources will be ingested, how data will be routed to the platform and what detection rule categories are priorities for your threat landscape. This plan ensures the deployment focuses on your highest-risk areas first.

Step 3

Log Ingestion and Detection Configuration

We configure log collection from your critical systems, set up parsing rules and activate the detection rule sets aligned to your threat profile. Initial deployment runs in observation mode to baseline alert volumes and validate detection accuracy before automated response actions are enabled.

Step 4

Playbook Development and Integration

Our team builds the automated response playbooks that connect Sekoia detections to your operational workflows — incident ticketing, team escalation, containment actions and compliance data processing. Each playbook is tested against realistic scenarios to validate execution before production activation.

Step 5

Detection Tuning and Validation

We refine detection rules based on real traffic patterns in your environment, reducing false positive rates while maintaining coverage against genuine threats. Controlled attack simulations validate that critical threat scenarios trigger appropriate detections and automated responses execute as designed.

Step 6

Operational Handover and Training

Your security team receives training on Sekoia daily operations including alert investigation, playbook management, threat intelligence usage and detection rule customisation. Documentation covers the full deployment architecture and we provide ongoing support for rule tuning and playbook enhancement as your security operations mature.
