Challenges faced

RCC required a solution that would actively monitor events happening all across their network. They had a traditional 300 server network running on four different campuses and found it overwhelming to monitor all the logs and audit logs from switches and firewalls. Additionally, they were on a tight budget and lacked the server hardware.

Compliance woes

RCC were, in their words, "smack dab in the middle of a GLBA audit". The audit had a multitude of reports–from the number of users that had been created in the last year to the number of users that had been separated, terminated, or disabled. Generating those reports was incredibly time-consuming for the IT staff.

"Log360 had a whole section of compliance audits and GLBA wealth of knowledge and I really look forward to our audit that will be happening. Simply go to Log360, pull the reports, and be done with that in hours versus weeks as it was last time."

Jeremy Taylor, CIO, Rogue Community College

Log360 comes to the rescue

To solve their challenge, RCC began to evaluate SIEM solutions. They evaluated other SIEM solutions in the market, such as Splunk, SentinelOne, and Crowdstrike. However, ManageEngine Log360 reigned supreme and matched all their requirements for the budget they had in mind.

How Log360 dove straight into action

Rogue Community College's CIO, Jeremy Taylor, spoke about the speed at which Log360 started detecting threats for them. He stated that Log360 began detecting threats that very day after implementation.

Real-time alerts - a real favourite!

When asked about what feature his team found the most valuable, Taylor claimed that it was the alerts. The real-time alerts with its easy customization helped Taylor's team pinpoint the threats that were concerning.
