- Improve incident response: Quickly investigate security incidents by analyzing browser history, downloads, and extensions.
- Strengthen compliance: Enforce security policies and track compliance with industry regulations.
How the Integration Works
The integration between Chrome Enterprise Management and Google SecOps allows you to ingest browser activity logs into your security information and event management (SIEM) system. This data can then be analyzed to identify potential security threats.
The general steps involved in setting up the integration are:
- Configure Chrome Enterprise Management: Enable the collection of browser activity logs.
- Connect to Google SecOps: Configure a connector to ingest the logs into your Google SecOps environment.
- Analyze the data: Use Google SecOps' powerful analytics capabilities to identify threats and anomalies.
