Log Management & Compliance
Collect, retain, and prove every log
RansNet centralizes syslog from firewalls, routers, switches, and servers across your network — then indexes, searches, alerts on, and archives it for audit, compliance, and forensic investigation. Deploy it as a feature of mfusion, or as a dedicated mlog Collector appliance built for long-term retention.
Collect · Analyze · Alert · Store · Report
One workflow for the whole log lifecycle
Regulations such as Sarbanes-Oxley, PCI DSS, and HIPAA require organizations to collect, store, and analyze logs from every security-relevant system. RansNet turns raw syslog from across the network into searchable, retained, audit-ready evidence — from a single console.
Core Capabilities
Everything you need for centralized logging
Centralized collection
Aggregate logs from an unlimited number of IPv4/IPv6 devices over standard syslog — firewall, DNS, DHCP, RADIUS, and CLI events, all in one place.
Live & historical search
A real-time log view plus an advanced search engine to query by time, host, severity, and message content across millions of records.
Rule-based alarms
Custom AND/OR rules scan incoming logs and raise real-time alerts with email actions, so critical events are never overlooked.
Long-term archival
Scheduled archival to external NAS with roughly 20× compression — retain months to years of logs cost-effectively.
Compliance reporting
Custom report templates on any schedule, exportable to CSV or PDF — ready evidence for PCI DSS, HIPAA, and SOX audits.
Flexible deployment
Run logging as an mfusion feature or on a dedicated mlog Collector appliance — both cloud-manageable through mfusion.
mlog Collector
A dedicated appliance for high-volume logging
Because long-term retention needs large, dedicated storage, the mlog Collector is offered as a standalone appliance — for organizations that want to collect and archive syslog only, or to offload logging storage from the mfusion orchestrator.
- Four models — LOG-500 to LOG-3000 — handling up to 3 million logs per hour
- Up to 2 TB local storage, with NAS archival for long-term retention
- Stateful firewall, 802.1q VLAN, LACP bonding, and VRRP high availability
- Cloud-managed and monitored through mfusion
Compliance & Forensics
Built for audit and investigation
Regulatory retention
Meet PCI DSS, HIPAA, and SOX retention requirements with compressed, long-term archives and scheduled cleanup — keeping recent logs online for fast search and older logs archived to NAS.
Fast forensics
Search historical logs by host, time, severity, and content to reconstruct incidents and support root-cause analysis — then export the evidence to CSV or PDF.
Deployment
Two ways to deploy
As an mfusion feature
Enable centralized logging within your mfusion deployment — ideal when log volumes are modest and you want everything in one console.
As a dedicated mlog appliance
Offload high-volume, long-retention logging to a purpose-built appliance with dedicated storage — standalone, or fully managed through mfusion.
HSG hotspot gateways can also act as a syslog collector for smaller deployments. See Security Logging for configuration.
Prove compliance with less effort
Tell us about your devices, log volume, and retention requirements, and we'll help you size the right logging deployment — in mfusion or on a dedicated mlog Collector.
