CaseWare Examiner
A NEW version of CaseWare Examiner, designed for IDEA v7, has been released. It includes enhancements that take advantage of new features in IDEA v7.
Your networks may be at risk. Network administrators often rely on the logging of network events to provide some security control.
Unfortunately, these logs are so large and so full of extraneous data that key information is often overlooked or undiscovered. Now CaseWare Examiner gives you the power to sift through these logs to extract the entries that may have a security impact.
Examiner will enhance your corporate security practices for a remarkably small investment.
Easy step-by-step process
- Generate the files from the target system
- Import the files into IDEA and run the standard and advanced pre-programmed tests
- Review the results of the tests
- Use the power of IDEA analysis functions to extend your testing
CaseWare Examiner comes with a handy tool called File Generator which lets you easily acquire the log files you want. You can choose all the logs, or only those created since you last extracted files.
Choose the level of testing you want to perform for each of the files. then, using predefined record definitions, Examiner imports the files into IDEA and performs the tests.
The Standard and Advanced tests provide a combination of profile information, e.g. number of events by category, as well as specific extractions, e.g. errors, accounts with expired passwords, unsuccessful logons.
For a complete list of standard and advanced tests, download the Caseware Examiner brochure.
Once the pre-programmed tests have been executed, you can review the results and decide if further testing is necessary. The power and flexibility of IDEA’s data and analysis functions let you look for items such as weekend logons; number of days since last logon or password change; search for words such as "bad disk" or "invalid" in message fields; or match dial-up access numbers with authorised callbacks.
Immediate Payback
The wide scope of the built-in tests and the ease of use (Examiner requires no additional training above a basic knowledge of using IDEA) mean that Examiner could produce valuable results from the very first use.
CaseWare Examiner is available as a plug-in for IDEA v2002 SP, IDEA v2004 or IDEA v7, please specify which version of IDEA you are using when ordering.
You can use your IDEA skills to supplement the pre-programmed tests available from one simple easy-to-use dialog box. Network security is vitally important to the continuing success of an enterprise. Examiner will give you new capability to enhance security for your employer or clients.
