The importance of log files in security incident prevention
An implementation is needed that accounts for, as a minimum, a couple of security management standards. ISO 27001 and ISO 27002 should be supported, with particular emphasis on fraud prevention and internal activity monitoring for the purposes of managing security incidents and internal fraud.
Now widely recognised as best practice, these standards make a number of explicit references to the need for a distributed monitoring and prevention apparatus, extending from the regulatory basis to the technological application. These two standards also contain a control model addressing the application of security dictates.
Another standard worth considering is the COSO Framework. COSO provides a structured framework for control elements (and the respective applications) with particular emphasis on fraud monitoring and, at a higher level, security policy violations.
The COSO framework is enjoying significant global success, particularly thanks to its high degree of integration with laws in force on the international scale.
