Identity Auditing and Reporting Solutions: Novell Identity Audit
Product Overview
Are you in compliance? Today, you must know—and be able to demonstrate—that your organization adheres to internal security policies, audit controls, and government regulations. However, these new mandates are often given without providing additional resources. Novell Identity Audit provides a lightweight, easy-to-administrate tool to collect event data from Novell Identity and Access management products, provide e-mail alerts in real-time and store the information in the included database. The intuitive interface allows for quick, powerful searching and reporting on the collected data.
Strengthen Security
Government agencies and executive boards are holding organizations to ever-higher security standards. As a result, your organization must be able to respond immediately when security policies are violated. Novell Identity Audit provides 24x7 real-time network event monitoring. If policies or internal controls are breached, Novell Identity Audit immediately notifies administrators through e-mail that a problematic event has occurred.
Your IT personnel can then use the Novell Identity Audit database to forensically reconstruct the sequence of events leading up to and following the breach. The included reports help pinpoint the users or systems that are causing issues in the network.
Prove Compliance
Government regulations such as the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act require companies to exercise strict control over certain kinds of information. With these regulations, government agencies require proof of compliance—usually in the form of external audit reports.
Novell Identity Audit includes an intuitive, Jasper Reports-based reporting engine, built directly into the Web user interface, to help demonstrate compliance. It includes a number of prewritten reports and allows user to create their own using Jasper Reports' open source IReport development environment.
Simplify Management
Novell Identity Audit is easy to deploy and manage. It is delivered as a prepackaged offering ready for deployment on Novell SUSE Linux Enterprise Server, and includes all the components needed for a quick, easy installation. The database, reporting system, and Web interface are automatically preconfigured and installed, ready to begin collecting events from Novell Identity Manager, Access Manager, eDirectory, NMAS, SecureLogin and SecretStore. Migration from an existing Novell Audit infrastructure is simple as well.
Summary
With Novell Identity Audit, your organization can avoid making potentially false (and costly) assumptions about its adherence to regulations and policies. Instead, you can enjoy a conveniently centralized repository containing all the information you need to ensure full compliance.
