Squid Log Analysis Software

Automated log collection from Squid proxy software

Perform real-time aggregation and correlation of log data from Squid proxy software

Perform real-time aggregation and correlation of log data from Squid proxy software

SolarWinds Security Event Manager (SEM) is built to collect, correlate, analyze, and store log data from your Squid proxy software. Squid logs are a valuable source of information about Squid workloads and performance. The logs record not only access information, but also system configuration errors and resource consumption data for memory and disk space.

Real-time log data search and root cause analysis of your Squid logs

Real-time log data search and root cause analysis of your Squid logs

Using the SolarWinds SEM advanced intelligent search options, you can explore and analyze data to more easily perform quick root cause analysis using Squid log data as well as forensic analysis on events to determine what really happened before, during, and after the event. You can also monitor Squid proxy server logs to track website access control, authorization, and the logging environment to help develop web proxy and content serving applications.

Collect log data from SquidGuard Access Block Log

SolarWinds SEM is designed to make it easy to collect log data from SquidGuard, a free URL redirector that allows using blacklists with Squid proxy software. You can also configure rules in SEM to receive alerts in the event of suspicious URL attempts in addition to the nearly 700 other available out-of-the-box correlation rules.

  • What’s Squid?

    Squid is a UNIX® based caching proxy for the web that supports HTTP, HTTPS, FTP, and more. It runs on most available operating systems like Windows® and Linux®. Squid lowers bandwidth utilization and boosts response times by caching and reusing regularly requested webpages.

    Ensuring your Squid servers are running at peak performance can be a challenge. A SIEM monitoring tool will allow you do real-time, automated event correlation and log analysis to help you ensure your Squid servers are secure and running at peak performance. 

  • Why monitor Squid logs?

    Log files are generated across your IT environment for every action performed on IT assets. Squid logs are an important source of data about Squid workloads and performance. 

    A typical Squid log analyzer processes the Squid proxy server logs to generate exclusive Squid reports. The logs report not only access information, but also system configuration lapses and resource consumption (e.g. memory and disk space).

    Squid log analysis can also deliver deeper understanding of internal network websites’ access patterns. Regularly monitored Squid logs will help you analyze events and more easily determine what happened before and after an event. 

  • How does Squid log analysis work in Security Event Manager?

    SolarWinds SEM is built to help you perform real-time log normalization and correlation to easily and quickly identify anomalies, errors, and warnings registered in SquidGuard. You can also view both raw data from event logs and normalized and correlated data side-by-side for comparison. 

    SEM is also designed to give you advanced log search functionality to enable you to perform forensic analysis on Squid events and achieve more effective log monitoring.
