TRACEABILITY AND ACCOUNTABILITY

Information systems now interact constantly with the outside world. And, as every CISO knows, the outside world is not precisely a Garden of Eden…

It is now of crucial importance to keep track accurately of internal and external activity over the IT system. Should any intrusion occur, Security Administrators must be able to readily track and thwart the menace.

Meanwhile, regulation is more and more demanding. Organizations must be able to track activity while preserving personal privacy. If an employee gets unlawful access to resources from within the organization, full activity reports must be handed to authorities. But organizations are liable to prosecution if any personal information is unduly disclosed.

To resolve this double bind, activity logs must comply with the following requirements:

  • Activity must be ascribed to identified users
  • Logs must be easy to consult: poorly readable logs hinder tracking user activity
  • It must be impossible to tamper with logged data
  • Logged data should be easy to export under third-party analysis tools
  • Personal privacy must be preserved

EdenWall answers these needs precisely and elegantly:

  • Activity is strictly ascribed to users
  • A full-featured, customizable reporting tool is available
  • Logs are stored on a secured appliance and can not be tampered with
  • Log data can be exported in a standard format (Syslog, IDMEF, etc.), compatible with major analysis tools
  • Auditors are granted various rights depending on their role and personal data can be anonymized

Thanks to unique tracking and reporting features, EdenWall helps you thwart threats and comply with regulation. With no network or staff overhead.
