Why is it important to capture and centralize workload logs promptly in a cybersecurity environment?

In a cybersecurity environment, it is important to capture and centralize workload logs promptly because logs may be lost during a scaling event.When workloads are scaled up or down, such as when cloud resources are dynamically allocated, logs may not be properly captured or may be overwritten if they are not centralized and stored in a reliable, persistent location. Centralizing logs ensures that valuable security data is not lost during these events and can be accessed for incident detection, analysis, and response.
