Armor can ingest logs from most sources. The logs are stored and can be correlated and analyzed against threat intelligence feeds from Armor and other third parties. Armor provides advanced log search and data visualization capabilities through the Armor Management Portal. The benefits of Armor's log and data management add-on include:

  • Enhanced security posture through the analysis and correlation of log information with other Armor telemetry sources.
  • Greater context to aid in more effective detection, alerting and response.
  • Ability to meet compliance mandates through the storing of log data for up to 13 months.

ARMOR ANYWHERE can be configured to collect logs from the following sources:
