Monitoring Activity

Follow best practices when reviewing audit logs to detect anomalies and respond to potential security or system issues. Monitoring activity on a regular basis helps ensure that API usage complies with organizational policies and regulatory requirements.

  • Review audit logs routinely: Check for unexpected user behavior, failed access attempts, and unapproved configuration changes.
  • Correlate anomalies across systems: Investigate events that coincide with authentication failures, API errors, or unusual access patterns.
  • Set internal review schedules: Conduct regular audits aligned with your organization's compliance and security requirements.
  • Escalate critical issues: Involve security or compliance teams if logs reveal potential breaches or unauthorized access.
  • Document findings and resolutions: Maintain internal records of investigations to support future audits and incident reviews.

Health Gorilla recommends that you designate a responsible role—such as a compliance officer or security analyst—to oversee ongoing monitoring and follow up on any suspicious activity.
