Government and industry regulations such as Sarbanes-Oxley, HIPAA, and the PCI Data Security Standard (DSS) require organizations to have controls, in particular security controls over their IT systems. And it’s not enough for organizations to say they have controls, they have to prove to auditors that they are enforcing the controls.

As a result organizations now have to maintain and store their log records. They need to examine their logs to detect much deeper security vulnerabilities such as policy violations and fraudulent activities. The key is looking at logs not just in real time or soon after an event has occurred but also over a longer period of time. With compliance, it’s very important that logs are saved and stored so that organizations can use them for forensics or internal investigations.
