RE: Enterprise Log Management Systems

["Jim Hanlon" <JHanlon () jchci com>]

We have just returned (eight hours ago) from a great three day SANS -
Event Log Summit in San Jose, California where the various vendors and
end-users had a chance to break down their needs vs. the commercial and
open source solutions.

Hands-down the people from Prism Microsystems demonstrated a product
that was far superior to anything else at the summit. On top of the
product performance and features I liked the fact that you can easily
download a fully functional version of their software and test-drive it.
We did it on an XP laptop at the show and it took all of five minutes to
install and start getting some good information.
I think you can get to it from either of their following websites:
www.prismmicrosys.com or www.eventlogmanager.com

No one at the conference had a formal product comparison matrix (which
would have been nice) but there is enough information available to put
one together for creating evaluation criteria for a product selection
project.

Hi All,

I would like to know which are the best Enterprise log management
systems 
out there in the market. Both commercial and Open source are fine.
Here are the requirements:

1. Log collection from variety of systems like Windows, Linux, Routers
and 
firewalls.

2. Analysis of collected logs and co-relation.

3. Report generation for the activities for starndards like ISO 270001

4. Email/SMS alerts.

Thanks in advance.
