SNARE has been a great tool for getting the unholy windows servers to report

to syslog :-).  As for the analysis portions, I've replied more on regex
tools, perl, SWATCH and the likes.

Not much you cant do with the tools already out there, unless you are
looking for full automation and correlations. If anyone finds one that does

complete correlation, statistical / historical trending, and can reboot
servers, let me know :-P.

I don't think I've seen Snare from http://www.intersectalliance.com/
mentioned. This is one of the ones I'm considering. Is anyone else
using this? It has an Open Source side, and they also have an
appliance.

Hello List!
We currently review security logs from various applications and
systems. We are looking for a log analyzer tool that can read the logs

from various formats and analyze the logs based on the criteria we
provide. We want this software to send alerts, provide executive
reports etc. Do you know of some good security log analyzer tools. Any

help would be appreciated.

Logcheck is a simple solution if you speak regex.
