Lepide Event Log Manager (LELM) has an edge over the traditional and native Windows Event Viewer because of its next-gen features. Being a centralized solution, it allows you to manage the event logs of multiple computers in the same or different domains at a common platform. At scheduled intervals, LELM will collect the logs of added computers automatically in two ways - with an agent and without an agent. The former allows the better parsing of the events, but it will install an agent program on

Then we opened the command window and navigated to t... ... middle of paper ... ...ms a master password into complex passwords for different websites
The goal of this lab is to configure AD DC and PSO on the Windows 2012 previously installed. The main tasks in the lab are to create a group policy object, join the domain, and create a user and apply policy object to that user. In order to do so, I had to add a Windows 7 client to test the functionality of the GPO. The last task in the lab is to create a Password Setting Object (PSO) where we can define the policy of the passwords for all users in a certain group or the whole domain. PSOs are used
In order to maintain, troubleshoot, and prevent network outages, network administrators need to refer to documentation. Required documentation includes network diagrams, wiring schematics, policies, procedures, configurations, baselines, and change logs. Network diagrams and wiring schematics are essential for reference and troubleshooting. A network diagram shows a logical or physical layout and includes switches, firewalls, routers, WAN links, and IP addresses (TestOut, 2014a). A wiring schematic

Introduction The first thing that we must consider about Information Security is that there is not a final destination at which we can arrive. IT Security is an ongoing set of processes and activities that requires attention and expertise on a daily basis. It is important to understand that systems are not secured by themselves and it is our responsibility to maintain and improve them periodically as required. It is of vital importance to establish the appropriate mechanisms and requirements in order
differently. A network operating system usually contains a menu-based administration interface. From this interface, the administrator of the network can achieve a number of tasks. “He or she uses the interface to format hard drives, set up security permissions, and establish log-in information for each user. An administrator can also use the interface of a network operating system to identify shared printers and configure the system to automatically back up data on a scheduled basis” [2]. The first type of
The Aim Higher College’s system administrators and network engineers have described seeing some strange behaviors such as high levels of traffic from many hosts that are causing system outages. The web servers of the college have been shutting down frequently by this traffic, it must be from a hacker group trying to attack the school with malicious software. I will review the network traffic from the college’s intrusion detection system and use an intrusion prevention system to block off these threats
A Log File is composed of log entries and each log entry contains useful information associated with events that occur in the system, network, virtual machine, or application. However Log file entries differ with respect to their types and requirements. Log Messages are a nice way for any application to convey messages about its current actions to human users, consequently logging is considered an essential means of security control which helps the investigators

Remote Control Software Used in a Local Area Network Introduction Remote control software can solve many of the problems that an administrator or user can encounter on a local area network. Using a remote-control program, one can access a PC remotely to exchange files between systems, run applications, take control of a client PC or server in order to troubleshoot a problem, and much more. Remote-control software is an application that you install on two PCs that permits one system (the guest)
I decided to write my paper on Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) and Intrusion Prevention Systems (IPS) because professor mentioned these devices several times in class and I am interested in network security therefore it was a good opportunity for me to learn more about these security systems. An intrusion detection system (IDS) generally detects unwanted manipulations to computer systems, mainly through the Internet. The manipulations may take the form of attacks by crackers. An intrusion detection
