Thanks for this video. I’m currently looking for a toolset for my MSP for proper tracking logs/metrics/compliance standards and it feels like the wild west out there. There are a lot of options but it’s not clear what features each tool provides, or even what their cost is, since many companies hide that.

What is Lawrence Systems currently using for their monitoring and security stack? Currently I have Graylog running, but it’s only collecting logs from my primary firewalls.

You can look at wazuh too. It’s actually above and beyond graylog and have more features.

I did try Wazuh, and maybe it was my limited experience, but I found major issues with its design in that it seemed that every endpoint would have to be manually configured. And while there was an option to allow endpoints to be centrally configured… you still had to manually modify each endpoint to allow for that.

I did reach out to Blumira for a trial license. I like how it appears to be designed for MSPs. I’m looking to monitor about 1500 endpoints across dozens of clients.

Wazuh is an interesting and good tool but very basic and much more manual as compared to Blumira.

At CNWR (the IT /MSP side of my company) we are using Blumira for our clients that have the requirement for SIEM and it works well.
