We're shortly going to run an RFP process, so results from your RFI
could be useful.

We're looking for a state-wide (~50-location ~35 institutuion)
hierarchical multi-managed solution, aka campus devices which can be
useful locally and bubble up extracts to a master console.

Are you on the smaller side?  I don't see Arcsight, LogLogic, and some
of the more scalable players on your list.

Hi Charlie:
If you aren't in a hurry touch back with me in a month or so and I
should have some good data to share with you. We have an RFI for a
solution out now and the following is a list of just a few of the
vendors who have stated they are responding:

IBM/ISS
CISCO
Secure State
Fusion
CA
HP
Cambia
Tripwire
and a handful of local vendors

If anyone else wants a summary of what we find out just let me know and
I'll send it your way.

-Kevin

Hey everyone,

        What would you all recommend for central log management? We
are
currently looking at GFI eventmanager. The ideal solution will combine
the monitoring of both windows and linux logs, and have the ability to
generate alerts based on our settings.

        Recommendations of things to look at as well as things to
avoid
is appreciated.
