No organization can maintain adequate network awareness without a system for centralized logging and analysis. LogRhythm is a tool which provides that capability, and whose architecture allows security administrators to move from a high-level overview down to the lowest details of individual messages. Incidents can be better prevented, detected, and mitigated when organizations use tools like LogRhythm to identify and investigate suspicious events.
