In my previous #OneIdentity Active Roles blog, you learned how to forward #Active #Roles logs to a central #syslog_ng server to parse and store the logs. In this blog, I’ll show you how to:

- Work with parsed Active Roles logs.
- Store #logs to various document stores.
- Prepare long-term storage.
- Send #alerts for some critical events.

Even if this blog about commercial software, the name-value pairs concept is the same in the #opensource syslog-ng.

#OneIdentity Active Roles allows you to easily and securely manage #AD objects. The #syslog_ng Windows Agent can collect and forward Active Roles logs from Windows Event Log, while the syslog-ng server can collect, process, store and forward these logs. https://www.syslog-ng.com/community/b/blog/posts/collecting-active-roles-logs-centrally-using-the-syslog-ng-windows-agent

Happy #ValentinesDay ! Well, almost: same day, different topic I started at #Balabit (now part of #OneIdentity) 15 years ago today. I wrote about the beginnings three years ago: https://peter.czanik.hu/posts/12-years-syslog-ng-sudo/

I do not often post a #selfie, but I could not resist in this case: wearing my brand new @allthingsopen t-shirt in the #OneIdentity Budapest office

On my way home from the #OneIdentity Budapest office I visited one of my favorite #icecream places. #Coffee does not seem to wake me up anymore, hopefully a bit of walking and something sweet will help me

Feeling #nostalgia:
"
Dear Balabit ,

I’m following up to confirm if you are interested in acquiring the Registrants / Attendees List.

The Balabit brand was killed almost five years ago, when we were acquired by #OneIdentity, but I still receive #spam with this name...
