Free log and compliance management virtual appliance from Q1 Labs

Q1 Labs announced the availability of a free, downloadable, log management and compliance product that provides organizations with visibility across their networks, data centers, and infrastructures.

With the company’s new QRadar SLIM Free Edition (SLIM FE), IT professionals can collect, analyze, report, and store network, host, server, application, and security event logs, via syslog, from any source, including a wide variety of routers, switches, and security devices. QRadar SLIM FE’s advanced analytics quickly turn confusing events into useful results that meet specific regulatory requirements.

The feature-rich and easy-to-use QRadar SLIM FE offers many of the same capabilities found in Q1 Labs’ appliance-based, QRadar Simple Log and Information Management (SLIM) solution. QRadar SLIM FE is intended for businesses, departments, or networks with less than 50 events per second coming from their log sources.

QRadar SLIM FE is available now at no charge and can be downloaded here.
