UNIX/Router/Switches SysLog and Windows Event Log Archiving
EventLog Analyzer automatically archives
all event logs and syslogs collected from Windows and UNIX hosts, Routers & Switches, and other syslog devices on
the EventLog Analyzer server itself. The event log archive is invaluable in forensic analysis and determining
performance and usage statistics for a host.
Encrypting Archived Log files
Now, EventLog Analyzer encrypts the
event log archive files to ensure the log data is secured for future forensic analysis, compliance and internal audits.
Hashing
The hashing of the archive log data files further secures the event log data.
Time stamping
The time stamping technique ensures that the archive data files are tamper proof. If there is a modification of file, this technique will reveal that the file has been tampered.
The three point security keeps the archive log data safe.
Configurable Log Archiving Intervals
The default
log archiving interval creates a log archive file of the all the received raw logs every 24 hours. And these log archive files are then compressed (zipped) after every 7 days, to conserve hard disk space.
You can configure the archive file creation and compressed file creation any time depending on how often you
need to archive
event logs. You can even disable log archiving entirely if
needed.
Reports on Archived Event Logs
At any time, you can load
event log archive file into the EventLog Analyzer database
and generate reports from the archived event data.
Detailed Event Log Archiving
Every log archive file that is created, is stored along with the time
of archive creation, size of the archive, and the host whose
event logs have been archived. This makes it easy to load
and generate reports from archived
event logs.
Instant Event Log Archiving
EventLog Analyzer includes options to instantly generate log archives
for all event logs collected so far. All event logs collected
will be archived, irrespective of the log archiving interval defined.
In this way, you can create and load
archived files into the database at any time.
