Abstract

Log management and file integrity are among the most critical security controls in protecting valuable business data assets against internal and external security attacks. Despite the importance of these controls, many businesses, especially smaller ones, do not practically implement the controls due to reasons including cost and personnel. In this research, we propose a framework, utilizing low cost or free-of-cost tools, and offer guidance for efficient log management and integrity monitoring. A detailed list of relevant hardware, software, and tools as well as their corresponding costs is provided to assist businesses in strategic security planning.
