Risky Business #173 Interview with Ron Gula - Process Accounting and El Jefe
I was interviewed for episode #173 of the Risky Business information security podcast.
The previous Risky Business episode that discussed the recent release of the open source El Jefe project by Immunity Inc, focused on how process execution tracking for Windows can be a great source of security data - especially compared to raw network traces.
During my interview with Patrick Gray, we covered how many SIEMs already have this sort of capability, but most SIEM users don't enable these features because they are complex. I also covered how Tenable's Log Correlation Engine can collect logs from both Unix and Windows computers that reflect process execution traces and how they can organized for attack detection, change detection, forensics, alerting, reporting and anomaly detection.
