Logpoint is releasing new capabilities to its Director and Converged SIEM platforms to improve performance and operational experience, as well as continue to fine tune usability. The improvements help MSSPs streamline security operations across customers and other organisations save valuable time on configuration and enhance performance and compliance.

The updated Logpoint Director’s comes with a centralised monitoring dashboard to help system administrators detect operational issues earlier and resolve them faster. MSSPs can monitor trends of various systems and performance metrics and act proactively to mitigate any issues. In addition, the updated platform expands templated log sources to the syslog collector, enabling MSSPs to ensure consistency across tenants. As a result, MSSPs save valuable time on manual health checks and operational workload of log source configuration.

The SIEM release enhances performance in log querying, offers dark mode viewing, support cloud based cold storage in Azure using Azure Blob Storage and improved access control granularity for log sources. The upgrades help MSSPs and other organisations increase operational control and save valuable time to focus efforts on more value-adding tasks. In addition, they bring down the total cost of ownership and allow for optimisation of resources.

The SOAR release includes memory usage improvements for better performance, hierarchical monitoring and debugging of playbooks and configurable persistent per-user viewing of playbooks and cases. The improvements make it easier for MSSPs and organisations to manage playbooks, navigate content of new packages in a simple way, and control the view across cases and playbooks to streamline operations.

“We’re dedicated to helping MSSPs bring value to their customer with threat detection and incident response (TDIR) capabilities and compliance capabilities,” says Edy Almer, Product Director at Logpoint. “Our Logpoint Director release makes it easier for MSSPs to focus on those value-adding tasks because it enables them to save valuable time on manual health checks and eliminates operational workload of configuration. In addition, we have upgraded the SIEM and SOAR products to help MSSPs and other users reduce the total cost of ownership and mitigate the risk of overstretched security analysts.”

Logpoint Director helps MSSPs and MDRs update, operate and monitor multitenant and large deployments with ease across customers. Director gives them the ability to manage hundreds of customers from a single interface, saving valuable time and eliminating swivel chair processes. Logpoint Converged SIEM is an out-of-the-box platform that accelerates TDIR by combining multiple tools, SIEM, SOAR, UEBA, and endpoint security into one.
