The purpose of this manual is to integrate Utimaco ESKM with Elasticsearch, an external log management platform that provides centralized log analytics and enhanced security. ESKM generates audit, system, and operational logs related to key management activities. Forwarding these logs to a centralized logging solution enables organizations to collect and index large volumes of data in real time, allowing fast search, filtering, and aggregation for operational monitoring and troubleshooting. This integration also supports security analysis and compliance reporting by making logs easily searchable, ensuring visibility and control over cryptographic operations and key lifecycle events across the enterprise.
