Log Management

NitroView LogCaster automates the log management and analysis for all log types, including Windows Event logs, Database Logs, Application Logs, and Syslogs. Logs are signed and validated, ensuring authenticity and integrity—a necessity for regulatory compliance. Out-of-the-box, compliance rule sets and reports ensure that it is simple to prove your organization is in compliance and policies are being enforced. In addition, instructions for resolving high priority issues can be included with alert messages for managers to acknowledge receipt. The result: proof of compliance, simplifying and reducing the costs involved with regulatory audits.

Assessing Risk and Enforcing Security Policies

LogCaster provides an immediate foundation for your enterprise-wide security program. It assesses the system policies already in place and alerts you to security vulnerabilities. This embedded intelligence lets you forgo the expensive consulting engagements some organizations undertake to evaluate the organization's current security practices and to determine the policies that are missing or inadequate. It also eliminates the need to develop special programs to inspect disparate systems and legacy applications in order to document and update security parameters.

Proactively Managing Security Practices

With its automatic and continuous monitoring capability, LogCaster alerts you immediately to specific key events and provides detailed analytic reports to identify security weaknesses. With LogCaster, your IT department can focus its expertise on proactively maintaining security, rather than reviewing belated system messages to learn of problems that already occurred.

Proving Regulatory Compliance

LogCaster's pre-defined policies and reports focus on the regulatory issues mandated by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (SOX), the Federal Information Management and Security Act (FISMA), the Healthcare Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), and the ISO 17799 and PCI Data Security standards to prove your organization's security measures comply with government agency regulations and industry standards. with LogCaster, your compliance reports are only keystrokes away.

Log Management & Analysis? Proof of Compliance? Raw Log Storage?

We can do that. NitroView LogCaster provides universal log collection, including binary logs and custom application logs. Logs are stored in their original form, encrypted and validated to ensure proof-of-compliance. LogCaster can also capable of trigger events at the time of collection, letting you know when suspicious activity has occurred. NitroView LogCaster is a great solution on its own, and also the perfect companion to NitroView ESM.

NitroView ESM provides universal collection of events (including LogCaster events), network flows, security events from firewalls, IDS and IPS devices, servers and hosts. NitroView ESM offers massive storage capabilities and real-time analytical capabilities—allowing you to perform forensic analysis of all NitroView ESM also provides correlation of events, flows and logs— offering one of the most comprehensive incident detection systems available.

Use them on their own, or together.

NitroView LogCaster and NitroView ESM work well together: using LogCaster to store and protect raw logs, and using NitroView ESM to perform deep analytics on supported log files.

"With LogCaster for Sarbanes-Oxley, I am 100 percent confident that when an auditor comes knocking, I can easily provide the necessary proof demonstrating our internal IT controls of our financial data "

Universal Log Management

Syslog, database or application logs, even binary files can be collected by NitroView LogCaster. Available in three forms—agent, agent-less, or network-based—NitroView LogCaster offers a complete log management solution that can fit any environment.

The Integration of Log Management & SIEM

Logs need to be managed, stored, and protected ... but they also need to be analyzed. That's why many log management companies are starting to provide basic SIEM functionality, and why many SIEM companies are selling add-on log management solutions. NitroSecurity believes in the complete integration of Log Management and SIEM.

The first steps are here today: leveraging the ad-hoc reporting capabilities of NitroView ESM to provide robust analysis of most logs, and NitroView LogCaster's universal log management capabilities to examine the rest: if LogCaster sees anything out of the ordinary, it will send a compatible event to the ESM, so that it can be correlated with other security events and data, and even network flows.

The next step? Leveraging the full power of our high-performance data management architecture, NitroSecurity is aiming for true, enterprise-class integration of Log management & SIEM — including a common management and analysis interface, universal collection, analysis and storage, and the ability to instantly locate the signed & encrypted raw log file associated with any given event.
