LogLogic Open Log Services API Expands Log Management Ecosystem
SAN JOSE, Calif. – March 3, 2008 – LogLogic®, the log management leader, today announced that software vendors Compliance Spectrum and UpperVision have used LogLogic's Open Log Services API to integrate their offerings with LogLogic's log management and intelligence (LMI) platform. Via LogLogic's Open Log Services, joint customers utilizing LogLogic's security and compliance appliances can attain greater business agility and productivity through ease-of-integration.
Since the release of LogLogic's unprecedented Open Log Services API in December 2006, more than fifteen customers and partners have successfully developed applications, portals and integrations ranging from help desk enablement and problem isolation to compliance dashboards. Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) allows people to reuse services, making application development simpler, faster and cheaper. Designed using the principles of SOA, LogLogic's LMI platform connects proprietary closed systems throughout the organization, making them into true 'Open Log Services' that can be re-used and repurposed throughout the enterprise for easier IT Governance, Risk, and Compliance.
"Web services have become an industry standard way to quickly and easily create multiple views of log data designed for the security expert, the compliance officer, the auditor, or the administrator," said Dominique Levin, EVP Marketing, Products & Strategy of LogLogic. " With LogLogic's Open API and its inherent ease of integration, our customers have at their fingertips access to the entire log lifecycle: collection, normalizing, indexing, statistical analysis, reporting, alerting on, and sharing of log data."
The LogLogic API gives developers easy access not only to raw log data but also to processed, normalized, or tokenized data and to a wide range of analytics options such as real-time alerts, normalized reports, and indexed search. By implementing an LMI platform that is fully SOA-compliant , businesses can integrate log management functionality with other applications to meet their business needs beyond mere security, including compliance, forensics and reporting, and operational excellence. Compliance Spectrum, a provider of governance, risk-management, and compliance solutions, and UpperVision, which offers identity compliance and identity risk-management solutions, utilized LogLogic's Open API to enable intelligent sharing of data among other applications and services, leading to greater insight into user, systems and network activity.
"We recognized the value of LogLogic's reports as compliance evidence and wanted to link it to our Compliance Maps© with the least amount of manual effort," said Colleen Murphy, Vice President of Development for Compliance Spectrum. "Our compliance lifecycle management solution, Spectra, will automatically retrieve multiple LogLogic compliance-related reports and link it to the appropriate compliance control statements. Our joint customers will benefit from faster compliance and reduced manual effort."
"The LogLogic and UpperVision integration leverages log and system identity data to correlate user activities to specific individuals and their business role, organizational membership, and access rights," said Chisiu Yang, CTO and Vice President of Engineering at UpperVision. "The combined offering provides a unique 360-degree view of user information access, ensuring all user activities are in compliance with internal policies and regulatory mandates. Customers are also able to define business workflows that are automatically launched for user review and remediation when policies are violated and to utilize comprehensive reporting and analytics for forensic analysis, role engineering, and user activity monitoring across heterogeneous environments."
