As part of our long-term documentation strategy, now anyone, from Splunkers to Splunk users, can improve the Splunk Observability Cloud documentation by adding examples, documenting new settings, or fixing issues. By opening the Observability docs for community contribution,  we’ve made it easier to ensure we’re providing the highest quality, most up-to-date content for you to use every day. All you have to do is select the Edit  this page link on any page of the Observability Cloud documentation.

App Assist monitors the apps in your Splunk Enterprise to ensure they are up-to-date and secure. Have you ever installed an app on your Splunk deployment, stopped using it, and as a result never upgraded? Well, these older versions may be missing critical security patches that the most up-to-date app provides.

Config Assist helps to keep your Enterprise environment safe. It identifies configurations that need changing and provides actionable (copy-paste) recommendations to fix those settings. Do you worry about when the newest vulnerability patch will come out, or when you should run another security check across all your nodes? Fret no more!

Remember those hundreds and thousands of forwarders that you have to manage and track certs for? No more! Now, admins can easily identify and mitigate issues related to certificates before they expire and prevent outages or missing data. 

Splunk Assist is a free, fully-managed cloud-connected service for Splunk Enterprise. It provides you with a single place to monitor your deployment and see recommendations to improve your security posture.
