The Linux operating system generates logs that are crucial for ensuring smooth security and network operations. Collect, analyze, search, correlate, and generate reports on Ubuntu systems with a simple yet efficient Ubuntu log management tool: EventLog Analyzer.

Here's how EventLog Analyzer makes Ubuntu log monitoring seamless and hassle-free.

Automated syslog collection

EventLog Analyzer can automatically discover and collect logs from Ubuntu systems and other Unix and Linux systems. Our solution discovers the network devices based on the IP and Classless Inter-Domain Routing range and provides an option for users to configure the Ubuntu systems to send their logs to the built-in syslog server.

The built-in syslog server listens to and analyzes syslog messages from different sources, such as Ubuntu SSH logs, Ubuntu Apache logs, and Ubuntu error logs, from multiple network devices using UDP. This helps minimize system downtime and improve the security policies of enterprises.

Automate and centralize log collection

Logon and logoff monitoring

With EventLog Analyzer, you can monitor Ubuntu users' activity, such as logons and logoffs, and identify patterns for both successful and failed logon attempts. Get in-depth visibility into the types of logons, including SSH, switch user (SU), and FTP, and logons via remote devices.

Intuitive dashboards

sudo command tracking

EventLog Analyzer allows you to track all sudo command activities. The execution details of critical sudo commands, such as changing interactive shell, running a command through a different user, and running a Linux command with sudo access, can be monitored.

Secure log archival

User account management

With EventLog Analyzer, easily manage your Ubuntu user accounts. Keep track of all the users added, deleted, and renamed with predefined analytical reports. With security analytics, track and audit Ubuntu user group changes and password changes for Ubuntu systems.

Extensive log analysis

Critical reports and threat reports

Secure your Ubuntu systems by getting greater visibility into the threats they face. Get reports based on risk level, including reports on risk trends, top risks by hosts, remote hosts, and the risk overview.

Frequently asked questions

Ubuntu is the operating system for Linux and Unix devices. Ubuntu systems generate logs for every activity that happens, including user logons, logoffs, process starts, and permission changes. Monitoring these activities happening in Ubuntu systems by analyzing their logs is known as Ubuntu system log monitoring.

With log monitoring, the system will be able to recognize patterns of regular activities and filter out any abnormal activities that could signify a potential attack.

An Ubuntu log monitoring tool will help you convert activities hidden in the logs into useful, actionable information. A log monitoring tool like EventLog Analyzer also has real-time alerting; a powerful correlation engine; an Ubuntu log viewer; and built-in, predefined reports.
