Hi everyone. I'm new to the forum and also relatively new to Exabeam, so apologies if this is a basic question. I've been tasked with evaluating our security operations stack, and part of that is getting Exabeam to properly ingest and parse our cloud storage logs (specifically from AWS S3 and Azure Blob Storage).

I've followed the setup guides for configuring the log collectors, but the parsed events in the Advanced Analytics dashboard seem off. Timestamps are sometimes misinterpreted, and user activity events aren't being categorized correctly, which makes the behavioral baselines pretty unreliable. I'm worried about building reports on faulty data.

Could anyone share their experience with this? My main questions are:
- Are there specific log source configurations or parsers for cloud storage that you found you had to customize?
- Did you need to adjust the timestamp format settings, and if so, what format worked for your cloud logs?
- Is there a common pitfall in the log forwarding setup from the cloud providers themselves that I might be missing?

I'm coming from a CRM/sales ops background where data integrity is everything, so seeing parsing issues is a big red flag for me 😅. I want to make sure I get this right before we commit further. Any guidance would be hugely appreciated.
