This makes me think I need to evaluate this product.

Interesting.

Too bad I missed it, sounds like it would have been a good one.

Interesting.

I thing I would agree with these results. We all suffer from alert fatigue!

But, my backhand is improving from all the Ping-Pong that is happening. But, I agree, this type of collaborative tool should improve time to resolution and improve cooperation between teams.

This is a good discussion.

We use YUM whenever possible in our environment but we only have about 12 linux systems. I will have to check the information provided as repository would be nice. I have done a lot of manual patching in my days as a HP-UX admin and I would definitely not recommend it.

Great article. I too agree with this 100%. With regards to the framework, this takes the most time but the end result is consistency. I have found in so many environments that they "think" they need security and "know" that it is important but they don't take the time to actually develop and embrace the framework. And as…

Helpful.

Interesting reading. Thanks!

Nice! Whitepapers are good!

Our environment has shown a need for this monitoring as well. Bump!

Interesting article. Just like most of the security analysis that we do, we must test and monitor real users and of course replay and generate artificial transactions. This is how we test firewall rules and websites. Looking at vulnerabilities before they can actually happen. 

This was a beneficial post!

Kind of my thoughts as well. But thanks for the post.

Even now, Windows XP still survives. Wednesday is the end of support for Windows 2003 Server. Are you ready?

Good points in the article.

I too have spent time tuning and tweaking the compliance reports to ensure that all configurations are consistent and standardized across all the platforms relying on NCM to perform the nightly backups. In the event, that major changes are needed during the production, then I will actually schedule a manual backup in…

Interesting information in this post. THanks!

Patiently waiting for my sonic screwdriver to arrive ..... 

Educational and informative posting. Thanks for posting.

I totally agree.

I learn a lot about these products through these historical posts. 

Educational and informative. Thanks for posting.

Interesting post.

We setup roles but I did not delve into the admin role. I agree it could be beneficial to have this enhancement. 

No, I think those are a great listing of available tools. However, we really don't rely on any of those for patching where I work. We just have a sandbox to test WSUS patches in and then roll them to production as required by the applications.

This was a beneficial introduction to the DPI and it inspired me to look further into the subject matter. Thanks!

Cool! Thanks!
