By fully integrating functionality that is traditionally associated with Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) with File Integrity Monitoring and Endpoint Monitoring & Control, the collective value of all functions grow substantially.  For example, security personnel can be notified in near real-time when sensitive files are changed, deleted, etc., and the activities can be traced back to an individual user. These capabilities allow organizations to meet additional regulatory compliance requirements, such as Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) 11.5 and 12.9, without purchasing a separate product.

File Integrity Monitoring

Steady-state monitoring to ensure the integrity of sensitive files is more than just a security best practice.  For many organizations it is a regulatory mandate as well.  PCI-DSS 11.5 mandates:

"Deploy file integrity monitoring to alert personnel to unauthorized modifications of critical system or content files, and perform file comparisons at least daily or more frequently if the process can be automated."

LogRhythm provides comprehensive file integrity monitoring that is fully integrated with enterprise-class log & event management as well as endpoint monitoring & control.  This integrated approach enables LogRhythm customers to simplify and strengthen their security, audit and compliance posture.

  • Central & policy-based configuration and administration
  • User activity monitoring syncs user context to file changes/deletions/additions/permission changes, etc.(e.g., at time of change: who was logged in, for how long, what else did they do, etc.)
