GPG Compliance Reports

GPG 13 compliance with EventLog Analyzer

The Good Practice Guide 13 (GPG 13) is a framework with twelve Protective Monitoring Controls (PMCs) for all Her Majesty's Government organizations. When it comes to user access to networks and systems, GPG 13 requires organizations to record: 

GPG Compliance Reports

  • Unauthorized application access
  • File access attempts to sensitive information
  • Successful logins and logouts
  • Unsuccessful logins and logouts
  • Privileged system changes (e.g. account management, policy changes, device configuration)

GPG 13 also mandates organizations retain logs for at least six months. Complying with all of GPG 13's PMCs can prove to be difficult, especially for an organization with a small IT security team.

EventLog Analyzer's real-time collection and analysis of logs can help enterprises achieve GPG 13 compliance. It offers predefined reports with each PMC mapped to different security events.

  • The best thing, I like about the application, is the well structured GUI and the automated reports. This is a great help for network engineers to monitor all the devices in a single dashboard. The canned reports are a clever piece of work.
