Monitor Suspicious Activity in Your Java Application

Detecting and responding to suspicious activity is a vital aspect of maintaining the security and integrity of your Java application. Monitoring for signs of unauthorized access, abnormal behavior, or potential security breaches helps protect sensitive user data and ensures a safe user experience.

Saashound, a powerful real-time event tracking tool, offers seamless monitoring for suspicious activity in your Java application. By integrating Saashound directly into your application, you can effortlessly track suspicious events in real-time and receive immediate alerts when suspicious activity is detected.

Connecting Saashound to Your Java Application

To begin monitoring suspicious activity in your Java application using Saashound, follow these simple steps:

1. Sign up for a free Saashound account to start tracking your application’s events.
2. Create your first project from the user-friendly dashboard.
3. Access the settings and securely copy your unique API token.

Java Integration

Integrating Saashound into your Java application is straightforward. Use the following code snippet to start tracking suspicious activity. Remember to replace API_TOKEN with your actual Saashound API token and update the project name to match your project.

import okhttp3.MediaType;
import okhttp3.OkHttpClient;
import okhttp3.Request;
import okhttp3.RequestBody;
import okhttp3.Response;

public class LogEventSender {
  public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
    OkHttpClient client = new OkHttpClient();

    MediaType mediaType = MediaType.parse("application/json");
    String jsonPayload = "{"project":"my-project","channel":"security-logs","event":"Suspicious Activity Detected","description":"Suspicious activity detected from IP address 123.456.789.0.","icon":"🚨","notify":true}";
    RequestBody body = RequestBody.create(mediaType, jsonPayload);

    String apiUrl = "https://api.saashound.co/log-event";

    Request request = new Request.Builder()
      .url(apiUrl)
      .post(body)
      .addHeader("Content-Type", "application/json")

      .addHeader("Authorization", "Bearer API_TOKEN")
      .build();

    try (Response response = client.newCall(request).execute()) {
      if (response.isSuccessful()) {
        System.out.println("Log event sent successfully!");
      } else {
        System.out.println("Failed to send log event. Response code: " + response.code());
      }
    }
  }
}
