For more information on LEM, visit: http://www.solarwinds.com/log-event-manager.aspx Watch this webcast: http://www.solarwinds.com/resources/videos/townsend-webcast.html Successful log & event data analysis and correlation is predicated on the ability to collect data from all your network devices, systems and applications and the IBM i is no exception. Unfortunately, the IBM i does not log information like other systems making it that much more difficult to analyze valuable log data and reduce the risk of a security breach. Join SolarWinds and Townsend Security and learn how the combination of SolarWinds Log & Event Manager and Townsend's Alliance LogAgent provide complete log and event monitoring and management for the IBM i.

2. Logging Is Now Essential
PCI Section 10 Requires Logging
» Requirement 10: Track and monitor all access to
network resources and cardholder data
GLBA/FFIEC Data Security
» Log Transmission, Normalization, Storage, and
Protection
HIPAA/HITECH Act
» Log-In Monitoring & Access Controls

4. The State of Logging on the IBM iSeries
 The state of logging on most IBM iSeries is not good
» There is a ton(!) of valuable information stored on your
IBM iSeries
» The IBM iSeries doesn‘t log information like other
systems
» IBM iSeries security logs are often an enclave inside the
IT organization
 The essence of good reporting is externalizing the
logs
 There is a requirement to remove the risk of
tampering
 Compliance regulations recognize the need to watch
all users – including the most powerful users

5. The State of Logging on the IBM iSeries
(continued)
 End result? Only the IBM iSeries admins know
what is happening
» All that valuable logging information is sequestered
on the IBM iSeries
» Network originated threats to the IBM iSeries are
often not noticed or responded to by security
professionals
» Other IT professionals (especially the security
team) remain unaware about the strengths and
weaknesses of this machine
» What they don’t know can scare them

6. Logging on the IBM iSeries Today
 Not monitoring your IBM iSeries is a big
problem
» It can lead to a finding of non-compliance
» It can leave a breach undetected
 A large national retailer lost over 45 million
credit card numbers over a three-year period
through poor security and inattention
» Proper logging and review could have caught
this
