A log data (or logs) is composed of entries (records), and each entry contains information related to a specific event that occur within an organization's computing assets, including physical and virtual platforms, networks, services, and cloud environments.
Although centralised logging has existed for long time, SEMs are a relatively new idea, pioneered in 1999 by a small company called E-Security, [8] and are still evolving rapidly. The key feature of a Security Event Management tool is the ability to analyse the collected logs to highlight events or behaviors of interest, for example an ...
A tarpit is a service on a computer system (usually a server) that purposely delays incoming connections.The technique was developed as a defense against a computer worm, and the idea is that network abuses such as spamming or broad scanning are less effective, and therefore less attractive, if they take too long.
In response, a suite of network management software was developed to help reduce the burden of managing the growing complexity of computer networks. Network management software usually collects information about network devices (which are called Nodes) using protocols like SNMP, ICMP, CDP etc. This information is then presented to network ...
