  1. LHCb Logging System A computer log is a diary or archive of events, in this case generated by a computer system or systems. In the late- 23rd century, Federation starships were equipped with a "black box" that stored computer logs. The logs could be used in criminal investigations or to determine the cause of a lost ship. Computer logs were for official purposes only and were available to authorities only under specific legal circumstances or court-order. Nikolaidis Fotis ( fotis.nikolaidis @ cern.ch ) University Of Crete, Greece

  2. Sources Web Servers Gateways Network Components Farm Nodes PVSS FMC

  4. Needs Forensic / Troubleshooting Splunk ( http://admin01/splunk ) Real Time Alert Ossec

  5. Splunk Is a High performance, scalable software server written in C/C++ and Python. Index and Normalize logs (disk fail , disk error are the same) Can be combined with with Ossec, Snort and other IDS via plugins Does not need an external Database.

  6. Splunk - Features Advanced search Regular Expressions / Time Windows Runtime statistical analysis Extensible Modules, Patterns Dashboards

  7. Splunk - More Features Can correlate events of different hosts/formats Supports many log formats out of the box (For non standard logs such as FMC configuration is needed) If run on CLI , can be integrated to scripts

  8. Have a closer look here ...

  9. The first line is excluded The second line is now the first

  10. Who is keeping ssh busy ? ;p

  11. New Patterns can be generated almost automatically

  12. Internal Information

  13. OSSEC

  14. OSSEC Open Source Host-based Intrusion Detection System. Log analysis, file integrity checking, policy monitoring, rootkit detection, real-time alerting and active response.

  15. OSSEC Analyzes incoming logs runtime and reacts if needed Every event can be ranked with a value [1-14] If event > mailRank , send a mail If event > scriptRank , execute a script Rules are defined in XML files Message, frequency, priority, etc

  16. Fault Tolerance

  17. Normal

  18. Logsrv01 failure

  19. Log analysis failure

  20. Logsrv02 failure
