ManageEngine Delivers SIEM for Cost-Conscious SMBs, Enterprises EventLog Analyzer Optimized for Security Information and Event Management
Nov. 13, 2012 09:29 AM
ManageEngine,
the real-time IT management company, today announced the availability of
its Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) software for
cost-conscious SMBs and enterprises, EventLog
Analyzer. Previously dedicated to log analytics and compliance
reporting duties, the latest version of EventLog Analyzer enters the
SIEM arena with the addition of IT data indexing, universal log parsing
and universal log search capabilities as well as a streamlined user
interface.
Recent security breaches at Yahoo!, LinkedIn, eHarmony and others
highlight the need for companies to protect themselves against criminal
hacks. Meanwhile, regulatory mandates demand more companies to comply
with Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX), Health Insurance Portability and
Accountability Act (HIPAA), Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard
(PCI DSS) and other compliance acts. SIEM is becoming a key technology
to help companies of all sizes thwart increasingly-sophisticated cyber
attacks as well as comply with internal and third-party regulations.
“For IT departments, SIEM offers a way to swiftly discover security
threats and compliance violations and inform immediate, remediating
action,” said Chenthil Kumaran, product manager, ManageEngine. “However,
SIEM has traditionally been priced out of reach for the value-seeking
SMBs and enterprises. Those that could afford it were often overwhelmed
by complex solutions that were difficult to implement and operate.
EventLog Analyzer brings SIEM to the masses, with potent features in an
affordable solution that’s easy to deploy and use.”
EventLog Analyzer: SIEM for the Masses
The revamped EventLog Analyzer provides the industry’s most
cost-effective IT SIEM solution, meeting all critical SIEM capabilities
— log management, compliance reporting, user and application monitoring,
and simple deployment and support. With EventLog Analyzer in place,
organizations can automate the entire process of managing terabytes of
machine-generated logs by collecting, analyzing, reporting, archiving
and searching from one central location.
The latest version of EventLog Analyzer introduces advanced
functionality that facilitates effortless and effective network log
forensics and SIEM, with features such as:
-
Streamlined user interface: The sleek, new user interface
offers improved flexibility and functionality. Support for
customizable dashboard views and the enhanced user experience provide
better visibility into network user activities, policy violations,
network anomalies, system downtime, and network threats.
-
Universal Log Parsing and Indexing (ULPI): EventLog Analyzer
can now receive ANY human-readable log and break it down into
meaningful field-value pairs to enhance indexing and searching
capabilities. [Feature video: http://ow.ly/f7c6l]
-
Enhanced IT search: Users can search any kind of log formats
with the flexibility to construct custom search expressions to perform
wild-card search, phrase search, Boolean search, grouped search and
range search. [Feature video: http://ow.ly/f7ceR]
-
Log field extraction: Provides an interactive regular
expression (regex) syntax builder for extracting one or more raw log
fields, which further adds intelligence to the universal log parser.

The new features above complement long-standing EventLog Analyzer
highlights such as its web-based user interface, agentless architecture
(with optional agents), support for all log types, ability to import log
data, and a wide variety of reporting options including compliance
reports and customizable reports.
“EventLog Analyzer helps us mitigate threats, conduct log forensic
analysis, monitor server usage and meet regulatory compliance
requirements,” said Dimitri Yioulos, chief information officer, Onpoint
Financial Corporation. “Beyond the security and compliance advantages,
EventLog Analyzer plays an important role in optimizing network uptime.
Finding the root cause of network problems can be like finding the
proverbial needle in the haystack. EventLog Analyzer is a very useful
tool, providing a simple, powerful log parser to greatly accelerate and
simplify that root-cause analysis.”
Pricing and Availability
EventLog Analyzer 8.0 is available immediately. EventLog Analyzer starts
at $395 for 10 hosts and is available for download at http://ow.ly/d57gb.
A fully functional, 30-day trial version is also available for download.
