Security information and event management (SIEM) applications help IT professionals oversee their vast technology infrastructures, including cloud repositories. SIEM applications aggregate data from many different types of systems to present a clear view of the actionable security tasks your team must address to protect your business.
Join cybersecurity expert Bob Erdman, Security Product Manager at Fortra as he discusses how a SIEM can make a world of difference when it comes to efficiently managing security events.
What Makes a SIEM Solution Effective?
SIEM solutions have become an essential part of many organization's security toolkits. SIEM technology gives organizations helpful insights into potential security threats across critical business networks, streamlines compliance reporting, improves efficiencies, and provides peace of mind.
Given the immense benefits and an increase in the number of SIEM...
As both SAOs and SIEMs grow in popularity, it's clear that these two pieces of software should not be viewed as competitors, but rather as collaborative partners in the battle against security breaches.
Let’s face it; system administration remains a largely thankless task. From scheduling jobs to balancing workloads to answering messages in QSYSOPR, administrators and operators work diligently behind the scenes to ensure that IBM i servers are available to run mission-critical applications.
Organizations of all sizes can benefit from capturing, logging, and responding to security events in real time, but one important operating system is often overlooked: IBM i.
Security expert Robin Tatam and Fortra Security Product Manager Bob Erdman show how mid-market SIEM solutions combine ease-of-use with the functionality you need, and preview Powertech Event Manager.
Many devices send status updates using SNMP or simple network management protocol. Make sure you’re getting the message. Read on to see how Robot supports SNMP.
In today's world of advanced malware, zero-day attacks, and stealthy threats, simply having visibility into the malware affecting your organization is not enough. If you want to protect your business from the costs, risks, and brand damage these threats can cause, you need to consider a more comprehensive approach to complete malware defense.
Data leaks and operational disruptions can come from any source—internal or external.
To protect sensitive data from modern cyberthreats, all organizations need a robust intrusion detection and prevention system (IDS/IPS).
The IBM i operating system includes advanced capabilities for detecting and preventing external threats, but there are still gaps that must be filled.

Despite the server’s incredible security infrastructure, auditing remains primarily a thankless, manual chore. And, let’s face it, any task that’s thankless and manual probably won’t get done.
File Integrity Monitoring (FIM) helps ensure that your critical and sensitive data is viewed and changed only by authorized personnel through approved channels. Candidates for FIM include application files containing sensitive data, such as personnel or financial data, and server configuration files.
Not so long ago, viruses were just one of those little annoyances that come along with using a computer, akin to the gnat that orbits your head at the family picnic.
Do you all remember Malcom Haines’ presentation comparing the viruses on Windows and on IBM i? The first slide, for Microsoft, was an entire page filled, at a 4-point font, with different viruses. Then Malcom switched to the IBM i slide, which was blank. This would always result in an outburst in laughter among us IBM i evangelists.
The Integrated File System (IFS) is one of the most ignored parts of the system, yet it makes possible many of the most powerful and most used features on IBM i servers today.
