ONStor and LogLogic Tackle Compliance Challenge

Partnership Offers IT departments a compliance-friendly log data archiving solution August 17 Webcast Entitled: “Delivering Compliance through Log Data Management and Data Archives”

SAN JOSE, Calif. – August 15, 2005 – ONStor Inc. and LogLogic today announced a partnership delivering IT departments a powerful and cost-effective way to monitor, retain, and quickly access storage and systems log data in efforts to achieve regulatory compliance. Together the companies will deliver storage compliance solutions comprised of ONStor’s enterprise-class NAS Gateway and LogLogic’s award-winning log management appliances.

“The LogLogic ST Appliance is the first and only log management solution built specifically to collect 100% of all log data from storage and network appliances, delivering a complete compliance audit trail,” said Dominique Levin, vice president of product management and business development at LogLogic. “With as many as 10,000 log data messages generated per second and upwards of 25 terabytes of storage each year needed to house all of the log data required for regulatory compliance, ONStor and LogLogic are able to offer a reliable and secure means of safeguarding this log data while providing the flexibility of utilizing current storage investments or adding options from storage vendors of their choice.”

Legal regulations, such as the Sarbanes-Oxley and HIPAA, require companies to not only protect corporate and customer information but also to retain log data – detailed information about activities from devices such as firewalls, routers, VPNs and servers that provide an in-depth look at real-time network activity for up to seven years. The ONStor/LogLogic joint solution enables the collecting, analyzing and long-term archiving of network log data to the customers’ storage of choice, leveraging existing infrastructure while saving them from additional hardware investments.

“Network log data presents a significant storage challenge, in terms of the volume of information, and the necessity to quickly access it when needed,” said Jon Toor, vice president of marketing, ONStor. “LogLogic and ONStor together offer an affordable, easy-to-manage approach that ensures compliance while fully leveraging storage resources that are already in place.”

The companies’ solution ensures that log data is immediately assessable when needed for audit purposes without the time required to access records on removable tape or optical media. ONStor’s NAS Gateway connects LogLogic’s log management appliances to multi-vendor storage for long-term archival of log data.

LogLogic and ONStor will host a live webcast entitled “Delivering Compliance through Log Data Management and Data Archives,” August 17, 2005 at 11:00 am PDT. The one-hour webcast will feature topics on compliance and privacy issues, compliance statutes specifically referencing log data, storage and security breaches, data integrity and more.
