For most organizations today, the logs produced by their
security tools and environments provide a mixed bag. On the one
hand, they can be a trove of valuable data on security breaches,
vulnerabilities, attack patterns, and general security
insights.
On the other, organizations don’t have the right means to manage
the massive scale of logs and data produced to derive any value
from it.
Log management can quickly become a sore point, and either be
forgotten or improperly managed if done manually.
In turn, this reduces data transparency and leaves organizations
more exposed to vulnerabilities that could have been detected. A
new centralized log management module (CLM) introduced by XDR
provider Cynet (learn more here[1]) could help
organizations lighten that load and enhance organizations’
visibility into their valuable log data.
Instead of manually handling the collection, storage, and
parsing of data, organizations can use CLM to enhance their log
analysis, better understand their security environment, and lighten
the load on lean security teams that must handle this process.
Introducing Cynet CLM
Cynet’s new Centralized Log Management module offers
organizations an effective way to deal with the massive volume of
security logs most organizations – regardless of size – generate.
The first step to doing this is to automate the process.
Cynet CLM automatically collects the highest priority log data
to uncover threats quickly and accurately across an organization’s
environment. Event logs and data are collected from network devices
and applications, SaaS applications, and any hosts connected to the
Cynet platform. Logs are stored in a data lake which can be
accessed directly through the Cynet console.
Visual log analysis
One common issue with the high volume of logs is organizing them
into a format that is easily digestible and understandable. Cynet
offers a visual analysis tool that lets security teams create
charts and dashboards that let them gather and leverage insights
from their log repository. Moreover, it lets teams quickly pinpoint
and resolve issues.
Centralized control
As the name implies, Cynet’s CLM gives organizations an easy way
to view, sort, query, filter and correlate data from hundreds of
sources in a single location. Instead of having to hunt threats and
look for vulnerabilities across a network of sources, security
teams can simply focus on a single pane of glass that lets them
organize their data and leverage powerful query tools to find
exactly the information they need.
Easier data deep-dives
Perhaps the biggest advantage of centralizing log management is
the depth of analysis a single data point can offer. Cynet CLM
automatically connects all data points connected to log events into
single threads.
This makes it easier to understand an event across an entire
network in a single view. Security teams don’t have to manually
scour through hundreds of logs and sources to track a single event.
Instead, a single click lets teams quickly understand an event and
find ways to resolve it and prevent it in the future.
Organizations can now add Cynet CLM to their existing Cynet 360
licenses and add a new log analysis tool to their arsenal.
Cynet is also launching a webinar to introduce its CLM module.
