A company finds logs with modified time stamps when compared to other systems.

A central logging server ensures logs are collected in a tamper-proof manner and only ingested (not modified). This prevents attackers from altering logs locally.

Key concepts:

Logs should be centrally stored to prevent tampering.

Enabling log forwarding to a secure SIEM improves integrity.

Other options:

A (File monitoring tool) helps detect file changes but doesn’t prevent log tampering.

B (Changing log solutions) does not inherently improve security.

D (Log rotation and encryption) is best practice but does not prevent modification before transmission.
