A common theme in all compliance standards is auditing user activities, particularly with regard to access to confidential customer data. Whether explicitly, such as PCI-DSS which calls for the collection and examination of event logs, or implicitly in standards such as HIPAA, event log management solutions such as EventTracker provide a highly effective method to meet audit requirements by collecting and securely storing the log data, and providing built-in compliance workflows and auditor quality reports.
Prism Microsystems solutions are designed to completely automate your compliance process. Automation helps your IT team maintain regulatory compliance without taking staff and resources away from other projects that are equally important to your organization’s bottom line.
Establish the Baseline
Establishing a baseline is important to any IT compliance strategy. The ability to gather and document user activity, view group memberships, share permission levels, and security settings gives you a clearer picture. Specific alerts and reports can be created to measure activity against the baseline for any changes which may occur.
Track User Activity
Tracking user activity involves monitoring an overwhelming amount of data including group memberships, user rights and activities, file and object access, and logon/off activities. This data must be continually collected in a central repository and reviewed. Then the events or the results of the analysis, and often both, must be securely stored for an extended period of time.
Alerting to Potential Violations
Receiving alerts of potential violations and taking appropriate action will ensure your organization continues to remain in compliance. Real-time alert notifications allow you to take preemptive steps to secure your organizations IT systems. Within the central console you can configure an unlimited number of rule-based alerts giving you the near real time alerting required by regulations.
Audit Ready Reports
Auditors will want to see specific proof that organizations have in place a system to generate and deliver upon request a number of reports. An extensive reporting interface allows you to generate all necessary reporting to meet your compliance requirements.
