Secure SYSLOG management technolog
（Tohoku Univ., Tohoku Inst. Tech., Cyber Solutions)

Collection and analysis of network event logs are the most fundamental means for the management of internet and security. The protocol for the logging widely used now is SYSLOG, which, made in earyly days, has many problems such as reliability, security, extensibility and so on.
In this project, we aim at creating a secure and reliable logging system for any objects and develop technolgy that can be the infrastructure for secure and reliable network and security management.
The outcomes are proposed as international standards for SYSLOG-based remote system management.
