Integrating Menlo Security Logs into Falcon LogScale for Actionable Insights
Menlo Security isolates user browsing sessions from risky sites, but the value of that protection depends on how quickly teams can see what is happening. Menlo logs carry detail on web sessions, blocked activity and threat categories. Left in a raw log store they are awkward to query and painful to join with other data. When LogConnector pushes Menlo Security telemetry into Falcon LogScale with a clean schema, security teams get faster pivots, dashboards that make sense and investigations that do not rely on exporting CSVs from multiple tools.
As browser based threats evolve, teams need a simple way to see which users are being targeted, which sessions are blocked and how Menlo Security is shaping traffic. Menlo provides that control plane but the underlying logs can be noisy and inconsistent. The Menlo Security package for Falcon LogScale focuses on pulling that telemetry into a structured model that works alongside your existing endpoint, identity and proxy data so you can tell what is happening in the browser tier without guesswork.
Overview of parsers
LogConnector ships a Menlo focused parser set that reshapes raw security events into a consistent schema. It separates user session context from threat decisions, aligns fields to the CrowdStrike Parsing Standard and maps key events to MITRE ATT&CK techniques so analysts can pivot using familiar concepts instead of vendor specific field names.
- Handles log types such as HEAT, ISOC, Malicious Files and other Menlo streams so you get one coherent event model rather than separate indexes per feature.
- Normalizes user, source, destination, URL and policy metadata to make correlation with identity providers and endpoint tools straightforward.
- Adds MITRE ATT&CK mapping for relevant events so threat hunts, reporting and purple team exercises can speak the same language across tools.
Overview of dashboards
To keep analysts focused on decisions rather than charts, the package includes a set of purpose built dashboards for different slices of Menlo data. They are designed to answer the questions that come up most often in SOC workflows while still being easy to extend.
Standard Menlo dashboards include:
- ✓Authentication Insights views that highlight unusual sign in patterns, access from unexpected locations and sessions that hit isolation policies most frequently.
- ✓Email Activity Insights for isolating clicks on risky links, destinations that regularly appear in phishing campaigns and users who are repeatedly targeted.
- ✓ISOC and SMTP threat views that bring together blocked sessions, malicious content and threat categories so responders can see what Menlo is stopping and what still needs attention.
These dashboards are designed to help you track abnormal behavior, high risk users and campaigns that require immediate follow up. Once running, your team can choose which panels go to wall boards, which feed into alerts and which become part of regular review cycles.
Why this matters
Many organizations deploy Menlo Security but still treat it as a black box that simply blocks bad sites. Without structured logs it is hard to prove value, spot user behavior trends or connect Menlo activity with endpoint and identity events. With LogConnector and Falcon LogScale you get normalized events, quick searches and the ability to line up web isolation telemetry with the rest of your threat story. That tightens incident response loops and lets security leaders explain how Menlo is reducing actual risk instead of just counting blocks.
Conclusion
The Falcon LogScale package for Menlo Security turns isolated browser logs into structured telemetry you can work with. By normalizing key Menlo streams, enriching them with MITRE-aligned context and layering on practical dashboards, the integration gives your team a clearer view of who is being targeted, which controls are working and where residual risk still lives. When Menlo logs arrive in Falcon LogScale through LogConnector you are not just archiving events, you are adding a durable signal about user exposure and web threat activity.
Ready to dive deeper?
In real environments Menlo Security is usually just one of several controls touching web traffic. On projects we help teams decide how much Menlo data to ingest, which events to prioritize and how to align dashboards with identity, proxy and endpoint views. The goal is a monitoring setup that answers questions quickly without turning every new campaign into a custom report.
Get in touch with us today
We work with security, networking and platform teams that rely on Menlo Security but want a cleaner picture of what it is doing for them. That usually means quicker investigations, better visibility into high risk users and more credible reporting on web threat exposure.
Once ingestion and parsing are stable you can measure concrete gains like reduced time to understand new campaigns, clearer attribution of abuse patterns and stronger justification for isolation investments.
