ManageEngine, the real-time IT
management company, today announced the launch of Cloud Security
Plus, its log analysis and auditing solution for multi-cloud environments.
Available immediately, Cloud Security Plus empowers enterprises to bolster
public cloud security by collecting, monitoring and analyzing log information
from both the Microsoft Azure and Amazon Web Services (AWS) environments and
presenting that information in a single console.
ManageEngine will exhibit Cloud
Security Plus along with the rest of its IT management and security portfolio
at RSA Conference 2017
being held in San Francisco, February 13-17, 2017.
Cloud Security Plus:
Multi-Cloud Security from a Single, Web-Based Console
Log management plays an integral
role in an enterprise’s security strategy. However, logging in the public cloud
is a challenge as access and controls are limited by the cloud providers. The
complexity increases as organizations choose different providers for their IaaS
and PaaS needs.
“The native cloud log management
tools do not support multiple public cloud platforms. With these tools,
extracting information for specific security needs is highly difficult,” said
Manikandan Thangaraj, Director of Product Management, ManageEngine. “Cloud
Security Plus eases this task. It allows enterprises to centralize multi-cloud
log data, provides exhaustive reports that present key insights, and offers the
option to build custom reports and alert profiles.”
Cloud Security Plus gathers log
information from both the Microsoft Azure and AWS platforms and enables
security administrators to easily keep track of activities happening at
different layers. Highlights of this new solution include:
● Comprehensive
cloud log management: Collects, analyzes, archives, and performs search
operations on log data from Microsoft Azure and AWS public cloud platforms.
● Track
user activities: Offers predefined reports that give in-depth information
on critical IAM and user activities, security group and permission changes, and
user login details.
● Audit
change activities: Tracks changes happening to critical resources including
network security groups, Azure storage accounts, AWS WAF, AWS EBS and more.
● Monitor
business-critical applications: Ensures business continuity by monitoring
critical applications such as the Azure SQL database and other databases hosted
on AWS RDS, with detailed reports on all database activities.
● Get
key insights from critical resources on AWS: Provides out-of-the-box
reports that give exhaustive information on activities happening on Amazon AWS
S3, ELB, web application firewalls, and EC2 instances.
● Perform
log searches: Lets administrators perform forensic analysis and back track
security events with an intuitive log search engine and advanced search
options.
● Get
instant notifications: Provides administrators real-time email or SMS
alerts about unusual activities, web attacks, anomalous trends and other
security threats.
