Abstract :
Today, organizations depend much more on IT than they did in the past. Services such as internal portals, email communication, and financial and HR systems rely on computers to move businesses forward. These systems are under pressure to be securer than ever to protect organizations´ operational environment. One aspect to consider in this situation is IT security event management. This article presents the design and implementation of two security event monitoring approaches in a distributed systems environment.
