Splunk@MaastrichtUniversityBefore Splunk:

• Useraccounts got compromised and hajecked by phishingattacks

• Useraccounts have been used for sending out spam which did result ine-mail domain beeing blacklisted.

• investigate any suspicious activities instudent and staff accounts

• monitoring access to important or sensitivemailboxes for any unauthorized access

• monitoring for abnormally largevolumes of mailto one inbox

• determine the attributes of aphishingattack

• react more quickly when other things go wrong

• sysadmin team can now immediately identify the device onwhich the wrong credentials were used
