Compliance Support For IT Controls With Suite Of Reports & Alerts By Jill Ratkevic At Isnare.com Ezine Articles

Enterprises are facing a maelstrom of compliance and control mandates that is taking a toll on IT resources. LogLogic's Compliance Suites, which include versions for SOX, ITIL, COBIT and PCI compliance, utilize log data to evidence controls, processes and user and IT activity, enabling enterprises to take control of and protect their information assets.

"Through our Agile Reporting & Alerting™ platform, enterprises can now make use of log data to evidence and attest to controls and processes -- proving and sustaining compliance at a fraction of the cost of alternate or homegrown solutions," says Dominique Levin, VP Product Management, LogLogic." Pre-packaged compliance suites enable enterprises and institutions to be up and running in a matter of hours."

Log data is a fingerprint of IT and user activity. Generated by infrastructure of all kinds, including applications, services, VPNs and network devices, it is vital to managing and delivering IT services, information asset protection and compliance. LogLogic's Compliance Suites include a Reference Guide, reports and alerts.

"One of the most salient lessons we are learning from IT professionals is that best practices in security and compliance often address multiple regulatory domains," said Scott Crawford, senior analyst for Enterprise Management Associates. "This indicates the value of a holistic approach that offers a sustainable way to tackle compliance amidst ever-changing and overlapping regulations mandates. Such an approach can save companies from unnecessary -- and expensive -- redundancies in compliance efforts."

Businesses are increasingly looking to LMI technologies to reduce IT costs while improving and enforcing compliance with multiple mandates and regulations. Log data accounts for over 25% of all enterprise data, and strategies to make that data effective for IT are being sought by the Global 2000 to the tune of almost a $1B in terms of investment. A recent study by the vendor-neutral SANS Institute and sponsored by LogLogic found that the log management industry is experiencing double digit growth year over year. Fueling that demand is growing dissatisfaction with current strategies. Research found that 80% of enterprises still rely on homegrown scripts to address their needs and forty-one percent indicated they would make a change during the next year.

LogLogic supports 100% of all log-related IT controls and best practices as outlined by ISO, significantly reducing the cost and complexities of compliance. Installed within minutes, LogLogic's award-winning solutions aggregate high volumes of log data and offer fast search and drill-down capabilities essential to maintaining network health, while automating log data archives and providing more secure log data retention, all to better control your
