Hi Kevin,

I would recommend taking a look at OpenService - http://www.open.com/.
Also, look toward a network IPS to cut out the white noise at the perimeter
and reduce the logging load on your internal devices.
Don't discount the power of Microsoft Group Policy at a desktop level - they
offer state of the art file integrity checking systems that are far more
cost-effective and comprehensive than the 3rd party add-ons that proliferate
the market.

Regards,

Tim

Subject: SIM Tools, and endpoint security.

I am looking to get some information and some input on SIM Tools.

Currently we have looked at the Protego (now Cisco) Mars product as well at
NetForensics.

We are looking to such a tool to fill the gaps in the Host Intrusion from a
syslog type perspective to complement our Network Intrusion plan.  We would
dump OS logs, app logs, fw logs, router and switch logs to the SIM and would
like to retain logs for an extended period.

Looking for feedback on SIMs.

Another area we are looking in is for Endpoint security and policy
enforcement.  We are currently looking at Cisco CSA.  Who else should we
look at and any feedback on CSA or other products?

Thanks,

Kevin Phillips
