Advantages of using WebSpy with Cisco IronPort – New Video

Asa

WebSpy has been working closely with Cisco and the IronPort team over the past few years to develop what we believe is the most intuitive, flexible and fastest reporting solution for Cisco IronPort users.

We’ve just completed our ‘WebSpy Reporting for Cisco IronPort’ video. Although this video is aimed at the Cisco channel we’d thought we share it with the rest of the WebSpy community as it provides a great high level overview of Vantage Ultimate’s ability to, not only import and spit out reports, but to learn about an organization’s structure in order to securely deliver the right report to the right person at the right time.

Event Log Reporting using Vantage

Asa

Event logs have been a feature of the MS Operating System (Windows) since the original release of Windows NT in1993. Designed to provide an audit trail of system use, event logging records the actions that occur within the system, such as users logging in, failure of a component to start, or an attempt to print a document.

 

Event Log Management

Information stored in event log files is extremely useful to organizations as it provides real-time indications of network incidents as well as an audit trail of user activity. However extracting useful information can be challenging as it is very difficult to manage and filter the vast amount of data generated.
