5.2.4: Log management and analysis

Oh no! No description found. But not to worry. Read from Tasks below how to advance this topic.

Objective: Event logs support the traceability of events in case of a security incident. This requires that events necessary to determine the causes are recorded and stored. In addition, the logging and analysis of activities in accordance with applicable legislation (e.g. Data Protection or Works Constitution Act) is required to determine which user account has made changes to IT systems.

Requirements (must): Information security requirements regarding the handling of event logs are determined and fulfilled.
Security-relevant requirements regarding the logging of activities of system administrators and users are determined and fulfilled.
The IT systems used are assessed regarding the necessity of logging.
When using external IT services, information on the monitoring options is obtained and considered in the assessment.
Event logs are checked regularly for rule violations and noticeable problems in compliance with the permissible legal and organizational provisions.

Requirements (should): A procedure for the escalation of relevant events to the responsible body (e.g. security incident report, data protection, corporate security, IT security) is defined and established.
Event logs (contents and meta data) are protected against alteration. (e.g. by a dedicated environment).
Adequate monitoring and recording of any actions on the network that are relevant to information security are established.

This requirement is part of the framework:  
TISAX: Information security

The ISMS component hierachy

When building an ISMS, it's important to understand the different levels of information hierarchy. Here's how Cyberday is structured.

Framework

Sets the overall compliance standard or regulation your organization needs to follow.

Requirements

Break down the framework into specific obligations that must be met.

Tasks

Concrete actions and activities your team carries out to satisfy each requirement.

Policies

Documented rules and practices that are created and maintained as a result of completing tasks.

Never duplicate effort. Do it once - improve compliance across frameworks.

Reach multi-framework compliance in the simplest possible way
Security frameworks tend to share the same core requirements - like risk management, backup, malware, personnel awareness or access management.
Cyberday maps all frameworks’ requirements into shared tasks - one single plan that improves all frameworks’ compliance.
Do it once - we automatically apply it to all current and future frameworks.
