Event Log Monitoring and Collection

Objective Software's EventMaster is a full-featured Windows Event Log Monitoring and Collection system. It collects and alerts on events from all event logs on every machine in your enterprise. And *lots* more!

Finally, a Product that Satisfies the CEO, the CFO, and the Network Administrator

  • Increase Security The CEO and CIO can put their minds at ease, with the added level of security that EventMaster adds to your network.
  • Save Money: The CFO will see a huge savings in network administration costs from IT staff having to Check, Archive and Clear event logs on servers and workstations.
  • Save Time: The Network Administrator will never again have to check Event Logs on individual computers.

Reduce Help Desk Calls with Instant Notification of Problems

Subscribe to messages that indicate problems, and proactively correct them before they affect your users.

For example, a user is logged in at two machines. They change their password on one but shortly afterward, their account gets locked out by the other machine using the user's old credentials. You can get notified of account lockouts in real time, and be able to unlock the user's account, as well as give them a call and have them log out of the second machine to prevent further lockouts.

Using Objective Software's MessageMaster technology, all events are reliably collected and delivered according to your requirements.

Make Your Job Easier with Web-based, Centralized Control

Having the information collected is one thing, being able to manage, search and report on that information is another. EventMaster provides you with the ability to monitor remotely connected networks and a single web-based interface to interact with your organization's critical events.

An easy-to-use web interface gives you full control over the system, from any machine. Control everything from managing which events are collected and which events are critical, to managing your personal notifications and those of other administrators.

From the MessageMaster web-based console, administrators can control:

  • Real-time: which events are critical, and monitored in real-time
  • Excluded: which events can be excluded all together
  • Alerts: which alerts they wish to receive, and how they wish to be notified

Get Started Immediately

EventMaster is set up and ready to go, right out of the box.

  • Preconfigured to immediately start collecting Errors and Security Audit Failure events
  • Preconfigured to consolidate repeated events
  • Preconfigured to notify administrator of system errors

All you do is install and push out agents, then start reaping the benefits!

Dramatically Increase the Reach of your Control

Perhaps you are a company that wants to monitor machines in a branch office that is not connected to your WAN, or machines in a DMZ. Or perhaps you are a Service Provider who wants to monitor external client networks. Either way, EventMaster can enable you to do it!

Event Log messages are sent in as normal HTTP/HTTPS traffic. Updated configuration information, such as which events are critical, is automatically picked up by the workstations and servers you are monitoring.

Protect Your Network From Virus Attacks

To-the-minute notification of virus warnings on your machines improves your response time to virus breakouts.

Take the onus of calling the help desk in the case of a virus intrusion off the user. Instead of monitoring an anti-virus vendor's console - one of many such you must review each day - centralize all of your messages and have them delivered in the way you want.

Sarbanes-Oxley Compliance and Security Analysis

As organizations come under more and more intense scrutiny from regulators, ratings agencies and business partners, having a provable audit trail of events in the IT environment is critical!

Turn on auditing and capture all of the resulting Security Event Logs. If you need to investigate an intrusion or security breach after the fact, nothing is more useful than a consolidated view of all security logs. They can then be filtered to narrow in to the exact events you need to audit.

Easily subscribe to be alerted in real time for high-security events such as account lockouts.

And there's more... Centralized messaging from YOUR OWN APPLICATIONS!

Imagine having all your messages in one place. Messages from:

  • Your Logon Script(s)
  • Your Software Distribution system
  • Your Scripts, Jobs and Reports
  • Your In-House Applications

EventMaster doesn't just look for certain events, then perform an alert if found. It also collects all events into a central database, whether a notification was required for that event or not. This has several important advantages.

  • A historical archive of the events in your enterprise.
  • See a consolidated view of events over all machines.
  • Easily find out when something started happening.
  • Have an audit trail of security events for Sarbanes-Oxley and other auditing purposes.
