Trusted, timestamped log storage
The syslog-ng Store Box can store log messages securely in encrypted, compressed, and digitally signed binary files. That way any sensitive data is available only for authorized personnel who have the appropriate encryption key. Sections of the log files can be timestamped; timestamps can be requested from external Timestamping Authorities as well. The contents of the log files are indexed - terabytes of data can be browsed online. All data is stored on mirrored RAID devices to prevent data loss in case of hardware failure. Using two SSB units in high availability is a simple and convenient way of ensuring continuous log collection.
Direct database access
In addition to storing your log messages locally, SSB can also forward them directly to databases , or remote servers, including log analyzing applications. The following databases are supported: MySQL, Microsoft SQL (MSSQL), Oracle, and PostgreSQL.
