Intellitactics Adds SAFE XL to Intellitactics SAFE Product Line

The new addition to the product line uncovers the hidden information in logs, thereby providing understanding and investigation of logs for all IT functions.

Intellitactics continues its roll out of the SAFE product line of security appliances by announcing SAFE XL. The new addition to the product line uncovers the hidden information in logs, thereby providing understanding and investigation of logs for all IT functions. SAFE XL, along with the other SAFE appliances, provides a complete solution on one appliance for compliance reporting, managing security operations, or securing technology silos.
 
Intellitactics SAFE appliances, simple-to-deploy and easy-to-use, enable every organization to achieve best-in-class results, whether the focus is audit-worthy reports, risk mitigation through security monitoring, or accelerated incident response. The SAFE appliances can provide stand-alone value or be implemented in a tiered hierarchy to meet the needs of every type and size of organization. SAFE provides real-time access to security events and raw logs to promote understanding of, investigation of, and response to attacks, anomalies, and control violations that threaten compliance or the security of critical assets.

“No security organization, whether it’s comprised of one part-time analyst or a team of twenty, can be effective without cross-functional support from other IT functions. Collaboration, the absence of which is often the ‘elephant in the room’ during operations reviews, can be encouraged by providing all the technology managers with a tool like SAFE XL. SAFE XL enables security to get the logs they need for compliance reporting or control monitoring and, at the same time, provides technology managers or administrators with efficient and effective log management to sustain the availability of business services,” explains Sunil Bhargava, Chief Technology Officer for Intellitactics. “SAFE XL, for example, can be dropped in and pointed to one technology type, such as web proxy servers, to give technology administrators or managers an automated, deep dive into logs using intelligent, device-specific queries, filters, and reports. At the same time, it provides a non-intrusive flow of log data to a centralized SAFE LP appliance, enabling the security team to manage compliance to regulatory standards or internal policies.”
