With FootPrints NetSecure, FootPrints web-based service desk customers have an affordable, real-time central console application from which they can monitor and manage all the network, security, server, and application events/alarms throughout their entire enterprise. By combining network security with the web-based service desk, organizations can create an effective integration between service desk problem management and server, security, and network trouble monitoring and resolution processes.

By design, FootPrints NetSecure’s ease-of-use and flexibility give organizations the ability to create substantial business rules and correlation logic without any programming and to modify them easily to adapt to constantly changing security threats.

This powerful combination enables organizations to:

• Set intelligent alerts based on network outages and intrusions and automatically post those alerts to the service desk.
• Establish a strong, affordable process for a complete, “closed-loop” audit trail, including data collection, escalation, and reporting systems to enforce policies and meet regulatory compliance needs, such as Sarbanes-Oxley, HIPAA, and GLBA compliance.
• FootPrints NetSecure provides instant awareness of network and security events or alarms, and through real-time event correlation features, it takes appropriate action based on specific security policies. This immediate threat awareness and mitigation response helps organizations defend and protect information assets at all times. All policies are defined through easy-to-build web screens and no programming is required.

This comprehensive solutions offers server log consolidation/monitoring, security event monitoring, and network event monitoring, not just on a single platform, but on a single screen – helping organizations to quickly assess true threats versus false alarms. In addition, it provides productivity and risk management improvements through a more effective, automated information exchange among various groups responsible for the day-to-day operation of the IT infrastructure.
