2. Getting Started with Blackpoint LogIC

Introduction

Powered by our proprietary SNAP-Defense technology, Blackpoint LogIC is a logging with integrated compliance MDR add-on built to be hyper-efficient and provide real-time data collection. With LogIC, collect the right data you need for future audits. LogIC auto-maps against hundreds of compliance requirements all at once, so you can understand where your current security products and services are covering you in terms of compliance. Trust LogIC to make your journey towards regulatory compliance easier.

Important. Blackpoint LogIC’s logging architecture bolsters your cybersecurity posture by supporting real-time collection of file integrity monitoring (FIM) events, device logs, and any other application or system that supports syslog. While LogIC collects key data to assist users in understanding where they are covered in terms of compliance, users must consult with a regulatory compliance authority and/or compliance auditor to guide them through the official assessment.
