The old way: Complex, deficient log management.

Compliance mandates are driving new requirements to monitor, report and review audit trails. Yet meeting these requirements is difficult and costly. The IT data you need is scattered across the organization and it's difficult to access, analyze and manage. Perhaps you’ve attacked the IT data problem with homegrown scripts and are finding that the constant maintenance is draining IT resources. If you went the route of commercial log management systems, you’re realizing they're rigid and limited. They don’t work with custom applications, and require constant maintenance to keep up with change.

The new way: Comply without disrupting operations.

With Splunk you can search, alert and report on any type of IT data from a single point of access. Meet compliance requirements from audit trail collection and reporting, to file integrity monitoring with a single solution. Generate any compliance report in seconds. Overcome compliance barriers and empower your operations staff and developers with instant access to the data they need to resolve problems quickly and maintain availability.
