LOG MANAGEMENT


LogRhythm
REVIEWED BY GARY MOSER

LogRhythm
Price: Starts at $20,000

LogRhythm is a cross-platform log management program that provides a multitude of functions to manage audit files and IT secu-rity management processes. It's well crafted to meet IT industry trends aimed at increased enterprise efficiency, security and governmental/industry compliance standards.


Configuration/InstallationB+  

While the configuration of data sources initially seemed a daunting task, the installation documentation guided the process in a step-by-step format that was easy to follow and manageable.

However, actually deploying log management in an enterprise is hardly plug-and-play, and prospective buyers with complex IT infrastructures may want to consider onsite installation and training.

LogRhythm is a cross-platform tool, with out-of-the box configuration settings to bring in data for many sources, including Linux syslog, Cisco NetFlow, Snort, Blue Coat Web proxy, and all ODBC-compliant databases.

LogRhythm also supports application logs, such as Apache, IIS, DNS and DHCP.

DashboardB+  

We were impressed with the configurable dashboard, with plenty of options to monitor network activity in a real-time, visual interface. The display is set up to show near real-time activity in a graphic format in operations, security and audit panels.

The dashboard can be configured to display pertinent critical data based on any aggregated data variables. Further log management functions are started from the main console, with clearly defined dropdown menus.
