LogLogic and the SANS Institute Sponsor Industry’s First Log Management Summit

Seminal Event to Go Beyond Security and Network Intelligence

San Jose, Calif. – June 1, 2006 – LogLogic, the proven industry leader in transforming log data into critical intelligence for compliance, operations and security, today announced that the SANS Institute and LogLogic have jointly created the only major conference on what works in log management, to be held in Washington, D.C. on July 12-14.

“It’s time for log management to move beyond just network intelligence and security event management,” said Anton Chuvakin, director of product management at LogLogic and a member of the SANS Organizing Committee. “Log management and intelligence is now a critical discipline in medium to large enterprises. Activities such as compliance, information protection, audit, availability and user monitoring and risk mitigation are driving a new set of practices and policies. Meanwhile, log data is growing at exponential rates, requiring distributed architectures, secure storage and machine learning in order to extract value from it. Our commitment to and participation in this event is further evidence of our support for the global log management and intelligence market. We look forward to sharing this event with our customers and partners.”

More than 20 speakers, nearly all users, will share lessons learned and best practices on how log management helps enterprises address compliance mandates, IT controls and operations. At the SANS Log Management Summit, attendees will learn from their peers about mission-critical topics including:

  • Legal foundations for log management;
  • How log management helped catch four insider thieves at one site;
  • How log management stopped a spyware outbreak;
  • The SANS consensus findings of the 20 most important log management reports and alerts;
  • Solving the storage dilemma; and
  • Making Windows logging effective.

LogLogic will also unveil its annual research, undertaken by SANS, into the Log Management and Intelligence market at the Summit.
