Ease the burden of PCI DSS log management requirements
Date: Wednesday, November 19, 2008
Time: 2:00 p.m. EST/11:00 a.m. PST
As an organization that processes credit cards, you face tremendous pressure to comply with PCI DSS requirements. Specifically, Requirement 10, which requires log management or log analysis, can be the most costly and resource-consuming. In the rush to achieve initial PCI compliance, many large and midsize merchants established processes for manual log management. This approach, however, resulted in substantial challenges, including:

  • Collecting too much data due to incorrect configurations

  • Cumbersome, manual log review that does not produce consistent insight into the environment

  • Relying heavily on SYSLOG data that does not provide sufficient detail for most forensic purposes

In the upcoming webcast, "Ease the burden of PCI DSS log management requirements," our PCI experts will show you how to automate the manual log management process and comply with Requirement 10 using a software-as-a-service (SaaS) solution.
