Logs are structured or semi-structured records automatically generated by systems, applications, or devices to document events, actions, and states over time. They typically contain information such as timestamps, severity levels, components, user identifiers, and detailed messages describing what happened. Logs are essential for troubleshooting errors, analyzing performance, detecting security incidents, meeting compliance requirements, and understanding user behavior. They are often collected and centralized in logging systems or SIEM platforms, where they can be searched, filtered, correlated, and visualized. Proper log management, including retention, rotation, and access control, is critical for maintaining system reliability and security.
