SecOps IDE: Output for Downstream Use

[HubCity_mtb]

How can SecOps IDE jobs effectively persist variables and output for use in subsequent jobs and for analysis? Specifically, how can we implement custom logging within jobs, such as tracking password reset frequency?"

Within the Google SecOps IDE, utilizing Python scripts for job automation necessitates robust output persistence and detailed logging. For storing job outputs for inter-job dependencies and analysis, leverage Google Cloud Storage (GCS) with structured data formats like JSON or CSV, ideally aligning with the Unified Data Model (UDM) whenever possible. For custom logging, employ Google Cloud Logging via the google-cloud-logging library, ensuring structured log entries and utilizing Python's logging module effectively. Prioritize security by avoiding sensitive data logging, and maintain proper authentication and dependency management within the SecOps IDE environment.
