As an Amazon EC2 certified solution provider, MetaFlows offers turn-key cloud instances (MS Windows Server or CentOS 6) instrumented with the MSS software. The MSS can also be installed on a variety of other platforms including VMware ESX and other virtualized environments. The advantage of using the MSS in cloud security monitoring applications is that it does not require the installation and maintenance of additional instances.dedicated to storing and analyzing the security events. The MSS, therefore, enables meeting and exceeding Enterprise reporting and logging compliance standards in a cost-effective and scalable way. All security event data (weather originating from traditional hardware devices or from the virtualized instances) is securely stored in the MetaFlows cloud and is accessible using a secure web browser.
The MSS also increases situational awareness with real time security events and flow analytics as they are generated by all the MSS-instrumented assets. Our browser-based console gives customers unprecedented situational awareness because it fuses IDS, Flow and Syslog events as they are generated. An ingenious real time, browser-based UI automatically extracts invariants from the event data to presents top-level, highly aggregated, security intelligence information. Easy-to-use, drill-down forensic tools provide data-mining, and escalation procedures and reporting.
