World of OpenTelemetry

With an ever-expanding choice of technologies on the market, navigating the range of open-source observability tools can be a challenge. Which is why, when it comes to managing complex multicloud environments and their services, standardization is crucial. Here’s where OpenTelemetry (OTel) can play a key role. Developed through the merger of OpenCensus and OpenTracing, OpenTelemetry has become the new standard for open-source telemetry. Discover what OTel is, the types of telemetry data it encompasses, its potential benefits, and how NXLog can support your OpenTelemetry ecosystem.

Centralized Windows log collection - NXLog Platform vs. WEF

One of the challenges that security-conscious Windows administrators face is collecting and centralizing Windows event logs. One of the obvious solutions that come to mind is the native Windows Event Forwarding (WEF) feature available on all modern Windows operating systems. WEF offers the convenience of forwarding Windows events to a central event collector without installing and managing agents. To objectively portray the role this valuable technology plays in the larger scope of enterprise log collection, we have written several articles that discuss it:

Data logging and event monitoring have become essential to provide security and performance monitoring of business operations. However, the vast volume of logs generated can lead to significant challenges, including high costs and inefficiencies. Many companies collect an excessive number of logs, often missing out on the most critical security-related events.

Understanding telemetry pipelines

Back in the day, Gordon Moore made relatively accurate observations and projections about the exponential growth of transistors on semiconductors. It still amazes me, yet very few predicted the incredible growth of system interconnectedness and the vast amount of data it generates. It is estimated that 90% of all data was created in the last last two years. Given that everything is connected, the need for telemetry is growing at an unprecedented rate, and thus, the need to efficiently channel and manage telemetry data has also grown.

The CrowdStrike incident and how the NXLog agent operates

Automatic updates are recommended by many vendors as they are considered essential for safeguarding against security threats and maintaining system performance. Updates not only enhance security but also deliver bug fixes and new features, contributing to improved user experience. Software updates, however, come with the inherent risk of breaking existing functionality and can potentially interfere with other software or the operating system itself causing unintended side effects. Automatic updates that the user has no control over escalate the risk further.

NIS2 Directive: a strong request for better incident handling

Did you know the European Union created a rule called the NIS Directive? This rule was established in 2016 to ensure that all member countries are equally protected against cyber attacks. It’s a step towards making it easier for governments to work together to stop cyber threats. However, the Directive was expected to provide more specific instructions for protecting against attacks and ensuring all countries follow the rule. The rule also requires companies and governments to be better prepared to handle cyber attacks and have a plan in case something goes wrong.
