IT Operations and Monitoring has always been a crucial aspect of security for any organization. SIEM, a security incident and event management solution today needs to do much more than what it used to do, manage incidents and events.

Modern SIEMs are versatile solution covering not only your SOC demands but also provides rich visibility and accounting of NOC demands.

A typical enterprise network contains routers, switches, wireless APs, firewalls and so on. For a NOC team the availability of the devices and the performance metrics are very important information. NOC team generally use network monitoring tools in order to constantly monitor the said important informations. Modern SIEMs enables to put the NOC team under the same umbrella as the SOC. 

Modern SIEMs provides visualizations, alerting and reporting capabilities for security/network events and incidents as well as real time network health related information like: Uptime, Memory/CPU Utilization, interface Tx/Rx, wireless client counts and so on. On top of that Logpoint also has a role based access control such that you can efficiently manage the SOC and NOC users.

Hi Rupsan,

Hi David,

Im afraid we don’t have pre-built dashboards or alerts available for those stuff as of now. These information have to be pulled through SNMP using OIDs or the application should have a method to log such information through syslog or other supported protocols. OIDs are vendor specific so it would not be feasible to have an efficient pre-built dashboards and alerts. 

However we can work out custom dashboards and alerts using SNMP.
