Terminal + your SIEM

Most teams already have a SIEM or log pipeline. Terminal does not replace it — it fills the gap SIEM often misses: human-readable interactive session context.

  • Keep SIEM for fleet-wide detections and correlations
  • Use Terminal for privileged interactive session detail
  • Document both in your monitoring policy
  • Optional: alert on access anomalies in SIEM while investigating in Terminal

How it works

  1. 1

    Define sources of truth

    SIEM owns host/auth telemetry at scale. Terminal owns mediated interactive sessions for eng access.

  2. 2

    Operational runbooks

    When an alert fires, jump to Terminal session history for the user/host window — not only raw syslog.

  3. 3

    Compliance narrative

    Show auditors both continuous monitoring (SIEM) and privileged session review (Terminal).

FAQ

Do you have a native Splunk/ELK connector today?

Treat Terminal as the session UI and export evidence as needed. For custom shipping pipelines, contact us about Enterprise integrations.
