Event Log Management

SNARE is a comprehensive event monitoring and analysis tool that will add value to a corporations' current Intrusion Detection System. The SNARE System consists of two tool sets: the SNARE Agents and the SNARE Server.

The SNARE agents are installed and configured on systems that are to be monitored for specific audit activity, then they forward those events that match the audit criteria to the SNARE Server.

The SNARE Server provides the dashboard view of all pertinent audit events from a heterogeneous network. All incoming events from both the SNARE Agents and system log files are received into a central location enabling them to be analyzed, recorded and reported on based on the corporate audit requirements.

The SNARE System toolset allows for a consolidated view of all your audit requirements on your network.

The SNARE System can provide information such as:

  • Unauthorized access to the computer systems;
  • Unauthorized access to sensitive files;
  • Unauthorized use of account privileges;
  • Monitoring users access to the internet;
  • and more.

The benefits of the SNARE system are the multiple platform support, application support and firewall support, detection of sensitive activity. Nessus and NMAP are also included with the Snare Server, providing you with time saved not to mention the time saved by not having to go through copious amounts of log files to determine if something is happening on your network or not.

SNARE agents are available for a variety of operating systems and applications and are available under the GNU Public License at sourceforge, including:

  • Windows
  • Linux
  • Solaris
  • Irix
  • AIX
  • IIS/Exchange Servers
  • ISA Servers
  • Squid Proxy Server
  • The SNARE Server is available in two models:

    • SNARE Server 50 - a 2 U rackmount appliance preloaded with the SNARE Server software, which allows collection of up to 50 SNARE agents and system log files, providing the benefits of a complete audit and event log systems for multiple systems and applications and closed agent support.
    • SNARE Server 200 - a 2U rackmount appliance preload with the SNARE Server Software, whcih allows collection of up to 200 SNARE Agents and System log files, plus access to all commercial agents and a forensics license.

    Included with all SNARE Server purchases are support for the open source SNARE Agents.

    The SNARE Server, combined with the SNARE agents, is used by many organizations to meet some of the local and federal security requirements, such as : ACSI 33, GLBA (Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act), Sarbanes Oxley (SOX), DCID 6/3, Nispom Chapter 8, HIPAA, California Senate Bill, 1386, US Patriot Act.
