LiteSOC

Hello guys, I’m Amirol. I’d like to share why I built LiteSOC. My career started as a System Administrator 18 years ago, then I moved into Software Engineering. Later, I continued my studies with a Master’s in Cybersecurity at Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia. I also hold the Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH) and Certified Information Systems Security Professional (CISSP) certifications. Along the way, I often took on side projects building web apps for clients. Because of that, to maintain relationship with clients, monitoring logs became something I had to deal with regularly. To make the story short, here are the main reasons why I built LiteSOC: - I’m lazy to manually check server logs all the time. - Traditional logs usually only show the IP address and which page was accessed. - There are no built-in alert notifications. You can set them up, but it requires configuring many tools on the server like Grafana and others. - Logs are just logs, they don’t provide useful forensic insights, like how many failed login attempts happened within a minute. Yes, all of this can be achieved with third-party software. But the price? Ask yourself. That’s why I built LiteSOC. LiteSOC is designed to make security monitoring simple for developers, startups, and small teams who don’t have the time or resources to manage a full SIEM setup. With LiteSOC, you can: - Monitor your application logs in real time - Get instant alerts when suspicious activity happens - See useful security insights, not just raw logs - Detect things like brute-force attempts, abnormal requests, or unusual traffic patterns My goal is simple: help people who face the same problems I faced, wanting better visibility and security, without spending thousands on enterprise security tools.
