Easily Deliver z/OS Data to your SIEM in Real Time
Although mainframes produce plenty of information about what’s happening (event log, audit log, syslog, etc.), you need a way to quickly and easily separate critical security incidents from business-as-usual events – and send them in the right format to your enterprise SIEM.
VitalSigns SIEM Agent for z/OS (VSA) forwards these mainframe log messages in the proper format, as well as those from RACF, ACF2, Top Secret, DB2, CICS, and FTP, to Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) systems such as HPE ArcSight, IBM® QRadar®, and others. Mainframe teams must comply with strict audit policies but may not have the time or the resources to filter and format the right data and send it to the enterprise SIEM. Let VSA help.
VSA brings your z/OS mainframes into the center of your enterprise security infrastructure without hassle and in real time.

Compliance
VSA is an invaluable tool to help your business comply with FISMA, GLBA, HIPAA, PCI, SOX, and other standards. Administrators can define specific parameters to monitor with more detail and at greater depth, and automatically send data to any enterprise SIEM.
Security
With VSA monitoring the mainframes, your security team has a central, enterprise-wide view of all the events they need to capture and all the security threats they need to recognize.
Transparency
Mainframe security no longer needs to depend on batch jobs running long after any incident. Events are tracked and uncovered in real time, from all corners of the business.
The VSA Security Monitor is flexible enough to integrate with any SIEM and has certified integration with HPE ArcSight and IBM QRadar (Ready for Security Intelligence). VSA also integrates with Splunk®, LogRhythm, McAfee® Enterprise Security Manager, Dell RSA® Security Analytics, Dell SecureWorks®, and others.
