Would love some guidance about what to look for in the logs

Welcome to Splunk!

What logs do you have?  What you can look for will depend on what you have to work with.

You bought Splunk for a reason.  Look for whatever satisfies that reason.

Look for whatever causes the on-call person to get woken up at night.  Try to catch the problem before it has to be escalated to the on-call.

What keeps the CIO/CISO from sleeping at night (data breach, ransomware, etc.)?  Look for evidence of that.
