ManageEngine releases new version of EventLog Analyzer

ManageEngine today launched the latest version of EventLog Analyzer With New security device configuration management capabilities at GISEC 2015. The EventLog Analyzer, the company’s log analysis adds Firewall Analyzer to provide better insights on security incidents, network traffic and bandwidth usage From a single console.

ManageEngine - Eventlog Analyzer - Screen+ShotAdmins can now seal security loopholes due to firewall misconfigurations, monitor network traffic and bandwidth usage, and propagate and analyze security incidents from log sources across the network — all from a single, central console.

As hacking techniques get more sophisticated, detecting cyber threats at the initial stages is becoming difficult. Despite protecting the network with multi-level security, businesses continue to face cyber threats. The deployment of discrete, disconnected perimeter security systems, such as firewalls, intrusion prevention systems (IPS) and intrusion detection systems (IDS), follows a granular approach to threat mitigation and also generates voluminous amounts of log data, which is often mistaken as an indicator of compromise. To track down security threats in the initial stages, companies need a unified security console that can accelerate responses to data breaches.

“Perimeter security devices have always been the crucial source in identifying early signs of network security anomalies,” said Pravin Kumar, product manager at ManageEngine. “In most cases, as a complement to log analysis, constant monitoring of security devices’ configuration changes helps contain attacks at the earliest stages. Our new add-on provides instant access to firewall device configuration details, network traffic and bandwidth usage details, and log data from sources across the network by collating them in one central location.”

The Firewall Analyzer add-on to EventLog Analyzer is available as a beta download and the price starts at $3,495 for 50 log sources.
