RE: Keeping Logs files for how long?

Lots of good replies!

I'm currently trying to find out what regulations we would have to
follow. And we've seen a lot of good information about logging
hardware/software, so that made me curious to how others deal with their
log data.

Now I have a much better picture of what I need to be thinking about, as
well as what I need outside council to help with.

Thanks

Some considerations in log storage.


Are you going to encrypt the data? Logs have sensitive information.


If you encrypt the data - are you going to store this on tapes?


This is an important point as tapes degrade and encryption is not
forgiving to errors.
