Security Monitoring via The SNARE System

The advent of the Internet has revolutionized the world, changed the way we do things, the way we live. With technology, we can now perform a lot of tasks online, run errands, making it convenient to go shopping, pay bills, do banking, and so forth. It has even enabled us to shop and pay bills without literally handling cash and all in the comfort of our home still in PJs even.

The convenience of doing business online calls for personal information to be available online and with that the risk of private information being compromised. Government and regulatory bodies are now mandating that corporations protect the confidentiality, integrity and availability of the sensitive information. This requirement has placed a burden on organizations as they attempt to conform to specific regulatory acts.

Data protection can best be protected within an organization by constantly reviewing the log files of the various devices to ensure that critical systems have not been compromised. Log files provide a wealth of information, but event log management has until now been a manual process.

The SNARE System from IntersectSecurity provides clear, concise, accurate reporting (including windows security log reporting) of the information that is pertinent to your organizations security and audit requirements. The SNARE System toolset is comprised of the SNARE Server and the SNARE Agents.

The SNARE system enables data to be analyzed, recorded and reported based on the corporate audit requirements. Reports can be created as well as template adjusted providing flexibility to an organizations reporting structure.

The SNARE Agents have been developed for a number of applications and operating systems including Windows, Solaris, AIX, Irix, Linux, ISA, IIS, and others. The Agents are installed and configured on systems that are to be monitored for specific audit activity. They forward only those events that match the configured audit criteria to the SNARE Server. The SNARE Open Source Agents are licensed under GPL.

SNARE is an easy to install and configure solution, ensuring that an organization can be up and running in a short amount of time, the windows security log reporting system securely in place ensuring your organization is in compliance with Regulatory Acts and Best Practices in Security. The SNARE system can be installed on an enterprise level.
