Event Log Manager

ELM Log Manager 5.0 is designed on the same enterprise class architecture as our flagship product ELM Enterprise Manager. This rules based system monitoring, alerting and reporting software solution uses small footprint Agents, either as real-time installed Service Agents or polling Virtual Agents to collect critical log data from hundreds of systems, monitor firewalls and network devices. The data collected is processed at the central ELM Server, consolidated and stored in a Microsoft SQL Server database. Information is presented through the ELM Log Manager console in granular format, empowering Security Administrators with real-time event management. ELM Log Manager is your complete compliance and security management solution.

ELM Log Manager monitors more than Windows event logs. You can also monitor flat files such as:

Flexible Reporting
Several flexible ELM reporting options provide you detailed visibility of your security and compliance data. The ELM Publisher is preconfigured to collect the data and generate many of the most commonly requested security and event reports. In addition, ELM Editor is a custom reporting engine providing a query based tool for generating ad hoc forensic reports. With ELM deployed, you can analyze event data in real-time and schedule compliance reports to run automatically

Using ELM's automated monitoring, rich notification, powerful reporting, and centralized archiving, Security Managers fortify their security policies and improve productivity.

Data Storage
All data is securely stored in Microsoft SQL Server databases. ELM requires two database instances; the Primary Database for real-time reporting and a Failover Database to ensure data continuity should the Primary Database be unavailable. In addition, unique pruning and archiving features efficiently manage the data for long term storage needs. The ELM Server provides exceptional event and compliance data management.

Easy to Access
ELM Log Manager utilizes the Microsoft Management Console (MMC) as its primary interface. The ELM Console seen below is for configuring and viewing the data you are monitoring. A read-only Web Viewer with a powerful search feature is also included. The ELM Console displays the product architecture in three (3) functional groups:
