Activeworx 5.0, the Most Advanced Security and Logging Solution Available, Enhances Its Functionality and Speeds Up Reporting and Query Assimilation

CrossTec Corporation announced today the release of version 5.0 of its Activeworx family of security information and log management products. New to the offering is the Activeworx Log Center, a full-featured standalone log management product, which rounds out CrossTec's product offering.

The Activeworx line now includes Activeworx Enterprise, a unified and fully integrated SIEM/log management solution; Activeworx Security Center, with enterprise-grade SIEM capabilities; and Activeworx Log Center, a high speed log storage solution with extensive data access and query capabilities, as well as the best reporting functionality on the market.

"We are very excited to offer Activeworx 5.0 in the marketplace. When we introduced Activeworx 4.5 the market responded to our enhancements with tremendous success and a wealth of new implementations from the first week the product was launched. Activeworx 5.0 builds on that market share, and incorporates many new features which drastically enhance the usability, searching, and reporting options for historical data. The complete Activeworx version 5.0 product offers our customers the most powerful SIEM and log management product available today," said Jeff Richards, VP of sales for Activeworx.

New features offered in the Activeworx Log Center include: data separation, used to generate unique data stores; detailed, enhanced reporting; scheduled reporting, including the ability to schedule reports on historical logged data; query histories which users can now perform and recall at a moment's notice; host group queries, and advanced query processing which processes databases on a set of customized rules and then displays them in various reporting formats. Activeworx Security Center and Activeworx Enterprise have additional upgrades as well, including: desktop notification systems for the generation of alerts; ticketing system technology for advanced ticketing and features throughout the product for the resolution of security incidents; and a real-time event viewer which is used to view events as they are happening and being collected.

The launch of Activeworx 5.0 enables users to collect their information quicker, view it faster, and assimilate it into reporting windows and formats which are fully customizable and user-friendly. This release truly completes the Activeworx family of SIEM and log management solutions and brings the marriage of security and logging technologies further than they have ever gone before.
