Continuous Monitoring & Security Maintenance | Keep Your System Secure | Ethical hacking 11th phase

Welcome to Phase 11: Continuous Monitoring & Security Maintenance in our Ethical Hacking series. In this video, we explore how to implement ongoing security controls and monitoring to ensure your environment stays safe — even after testing and remediation. Learn the tools, best practices, and strategies to maintain a secure systems infrastructure in the long run.

🎙️ Narration Script (Voiceover):
"Hi everyone! You’ve reached Phase 11 – Continuous Monitoring & Security Maintenance in our Ethical Hacking series. Now that your system is clean and patched, let’s dive into how to keep it that way.

Step 1: Set Up Continuous Monitoring

Implement tools like SIEM (Splunk, ELK), EDR (CrowdStrike), and log collectors to monitor system activity and detect anomalies in real-time.

Step 2: Deploy Regular Automated Scans

Schedule daily/weekly vulnerability scans using Nessus, OpenVAS, or Qualys to catch new weaknesses early.

Step 3: Monitor Logs & Alerts

Review logs for suspicious activity — unauthorized logins, failed attempts, system errors — ensure alerts are triaged promptly.

Step 4: Track Patch Status
What is continuous monitoring in cybersecurity, Why is continuous monitoring important, How to implement SIEM tools, What is EDR vs SIEM, How often should vulnerability scans run, What logs should be monitored daily, What is incident response drill, What is patch management monitoring, How to update security policies regularly, What is endpoint detection and response, What are security gaps in monitoring, How to monitor cloud infrastructure, How to track failed login attempts, What tools are best for log analysis, How to integrate threat intelligence, How to audit security controls, What metrics to use for monitoring, What is anomaly detection, How to test monitoring effectiveness, When should you review firewall policies

Use patch management solutions (like WSUS or Endpoint Manager) to monitor patch deployment and identify outliers.

Step 5: Review Security Policies

Regularly evaluate firewall rules, access controls, password policies, and refresh them as needed.

Step 6: Test Incident Response

Schedule drills or tabletop exercises to confirm your team’s ability to respond to security incidents.

Step 7: Update Threat Intelligence Feeds

Subscribe to OSINT and vendor alerts (CVE, NIST, CERT) for the latest threat updates.

Step 8: Reconfigure as Needed

Adjust security configurations based on newly discovered risks or business changes.

Step 9: Periodic Compliance & Audit Testing

Collaborate with internal/external audit teams to maintain compliance (e.g., PCI‐DSS, HIPAA).

Step 10: Continuous Improvement

Monthly or quarterly reviews — analyze metrics, incident trends, and refine tools and processes.

“Continuous monitoring isn’t a one-time thing. It’s your ongoing insurance policy — helping you stay secure in a changing threat landscape.”
