Juniper is this week introducing software that lets security platforms – even those made by other vendors – share and analyze log information in order to determine the root cause of network problems and fix them.
Called Adaptive Threat Management, the data-sharing software includes upgrades to its SSL VPN and Unified Access Control devices that enable them to publish log information to a UAC server that shares the data with other platforms.
The interface between the SSL and UAC devices and the server is a standard known as IF-MAP, a communication interface for creating a two-way street between network devices and the server to which device data is published.
