Remediation Steps
In Graylog Security, remediation steps are text-based instructions that can be specified within event definitions, Sigma rules, and anomaly detectors to guide security analysts on how to respond when an alert is triggered. This functionality allows organizations to outline actionable, incident-specific measures directly within the detection logic, ensuring that analysts have clear next steps at the moment of detection. When an event fires, the defined remediation steps are prominently displayed alongside the alert details, helping accelerate response, improve consistency, and reduce time to resolution.
