"CISA Announces Plans to Establish Logging Made Easy Service"

The US Homeland Security Department's Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) has announced plans to develop and establish the Logging Made Easy (LME) tool, a service that was initially created and maintained by the National Cyber Security Centre of the UK (NCSC-UK). LME is an open-source log management solution for Windows-based devices that reduces a user's log management burden by integrating capabilities that produce greater visibility into the operating system and network security across deployed devices. Those who manage their organization's catalog of Windows-based equipment but lack the resources for a more robust commercial solution will find LME particularly useful. CISA plans to expand LME's centralized logging capabilities and make them available to public and private sector stakeholders this summer, building on the work of the NCSC. Until CISA relaunches LME, neither CISA nor NCSC will support the legacy LME tool, and organizations using the unsupported version are encouraged to exercise caution. This article continues to discuss the LME tool.
