Turn Raw Security Logs Into Clear, Actionable Threat Reports
Watchtower helps small and midsize businesses identify suspicious activity, understand severity, map findings to MITRE ATT&CK, and get practical investigation and remediation steps from the logs they already collect.
What the Threat Report Gives You
The Threat Report is Watchtower's core technical report. It turns raw log activity into a readable security assessment that helps you understand what happened, how serious it is, and what to do next.
Threat Level Score
CRITICAL, HIGH, MEDIUM, or LOW — assigned based on evidence-based scoring rules and supporting log activity.
Detailed Findings
Each finding documented with description, evidence, severity, and why it matters to your business.
MITRE ATT&CK Mapping
Findings mapped to known attacker techniques — so your team understands how threats operate.
Investigation & Remediation Steps
Specific next steps for every finding. What to look at, what to fix, and how to do it.
What's Inside Every Threat Report
