USA Company is seeking software beta-testers to try a new and advanced
sylog monitoring software program. Qualified companies will have
small, medium, or large computer networks with at least one router,
and one Windows 2000, Windows XP, or Windows Vista server. A
heterogeneous environment is preferred, but not required.

Beta testers will receive free and permanent license to execute,
technical manuals, and temporary technical support.

Please see http://www.sxii.com/beta/ for more information. You can
download the Sigma SES program from that site, install the program,
and return with comments, questions, and enhancement requests.

All inquiries will be responded to, and kept confidential. A mutual
non-disclosure agreement and signed beta-test agreement is required to
receive the free software license.

Wow, sign me up! In fact, let me file the first bug here and now: XP
and Vista are workstations, not servers.

Good point Dave.

In the licensing agreement for the Sigma SES software, we have the
following statement.

"LICENSOR GUARANTEES AND WARRANTS that the software product contains
no known and intentionally inserted threat to LICENSEE, including
secret undocumented program access, or backdoors, or keystroke
loggers, or any viruses, or software designed to compromise security
of the LICENSEE, or any other malicious program code. This warranty is
limited to software known to LICENSOR at the time of this agreement,
and is limited ONLY to software obtained directly from LICENSOR and
NOT from any other party."

Before installing the software, feel free to contact the company at
the phone number found on the "Contact" tab of our home page, if you
have any concerns.

The Sigma SES software is a web-based syslog message aggregator,
designed to collect massive numbers of syslog messages from Windows,
Unix, and router platforms. It incorporates correlation functions, an
indexed search engine, ability launch actions in response to messages,
and some graphing tools.

It also includes a Windows Event Log to Syslog Interface, similar to
the EvtSys system provided by Purdue, but incorporating an additional
log file monitor, and the ability to override facilities and
severities. (That portion alone may be reason enough to download and
try the pogram.)

This system is being beta-tested at a variety of sites. I posted here,
thinking there might be some interested parties that would be willing
to try the program in return for a free and permanent license to
execute. Any and all opinions on this are welcome. If you have any
concerns, please contact us.

Just one more note -- it is amazing how many break-in attempts this
single post has generated at the SXII website -- I've identified more
than ten separate attempts since this was posted four days ago.
(However, I was surprised and gratified to see there wasn't a big
increase in spam to my e-mail address. I don't know if I should be
encouraged by that.)

Point being -- security is always an issue, so previous comments on
this are well justified. Sigma SES has a lot of application in
security monitoring, as does syslog protocol in general. A lot of
security info is being ignored by enterprises, but is readily
available for analysis and archiving using a tool such as this.
