Oceans of Log Data

The 3 Dimensions of Big Data

• Volume – “Log Everything - Storage is Cheap”

– Becomes too much data – Hiding what's important

– Retention can be years – Required by regulation

• Variety Translating large volumes of disparate information

into decisions - FW, AV, IPS, Content Control, etc…

• Velocity The speed at which the data is created, stored, analyzed and visualized

.

Top 5 Reasons for Logging

80% of respondents collect logs from firewalls

• Detect / Track suspicious behavior

• Support Forensics analysis and correlation

• Prevent incidents

• Meet / Prove Compliance

• Detect advanced Persistent threat style Malware

Sorting Through the Noise SANS Eighth Annual 2012 Log and Event Management Survey Results

Top 3 Challenges with Logs

• Key events from normal background activity

• Correlation of information from multiple sources

• Lack of analytics capabilities

35% of respondents spend ZERO time reviewing logs

ONLY 24% of respondents review logs as a

normal part of work flow

Gap Between Logging and Security

In 66% of cases, the breach wasn’t discovered for months — or even years. 1% of breaches discovered by log analysis
