CrossTec announced today the availability of the latest version of Activeworx Security Center information management software. <A HREF="http://www.crossteccorp.com/activeworx/">Activeworx Security Center version 3.0</A> offers information technology security managers a variety of new features including a quicker and more reliable way to verify if a security event is a genuine system threat. The new correlation engine in Activeworx 3.0 adds intelligent automation to the Activeworx Event Framework. It does this by using simple flow chart symbols to create complex rules that have the ability to correlate against existing data and additional events. When a suspect event is detected in one device's log file, the software takes action based on those rules to check other security information in the system making sure that the event is a real threat. It also has the ability to group events with commonalities, such as those involved in Brute Force attacks, into a single event with more in-depth information.
