Concerning knowledge, we’re constantly learning new things and improving on what we already know. We’ve become very adept with Palo Alto Networks which compliments our existing knowledge of Juniper Networks. We also added skills with Aerohive Networks in addition to our Aruba Networks wireless skills.
Lately we’ve been working a virtual appliance of LogLogic that we use internally. LogLogic is a great simple to use and highly effective log monitoring and management solution. It addresses SIM and can uniquely used to feed other SEMs. They also have a SEM component rounding out their SIEM offering and have database (not just Oracle) auditing solutions. LogLogic has very capable and scalable units, but the entry price point had been prohibitive for some of our customers. We’re very excited and pleased with their new offering of a virtual solution with enterprise capability at a lower entry price point. Whether you need it for compliance reasons, network visibility or forensics, this is a great solution to have. We feel it is the best and simplest to deploy and use.
We continue to expand our knowledge in DDI (DNS, DHCP and IP address management).
In regards to assessments, we have created our own software. Now we use best of breed hardware for collections and then our own software and expertise to analyze and report our findings and recommendations. We’ve made this easy and unobtrusive to deploy while focusing on things that matter. You can read more in our other blog entry.
