Macnica collaborates with MOTEX to develop a "Splunk x LANSCOPE linked application" that supports labor management, internal impropriety countermeasures, and software vulnerability countermeasures - Utilizes abundant log information generated from endpoint tools to achieve more sophisticated security ～

Macnica (Headquarters: Yokohama City, Kanagawa Prefecture, President: Kazumasa Hara, hereinafter referred to as "Macnica"), a total service and solution provider in semiconductors, networks, cybersecurity, and AI/IoT, is a network company that has announced that it is a company that has announced that it has established a partnership with M-OTEX Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Yodogawa-ku, Osaka, Japan) President: Yoshiro Miyazaki, Splunk Inc. (Nasdaq: California, President and CEO: Doug Merritt) is pleased to announce that it has developed the Splunk × LANSCOPE Original App, powered by Splunk Enterprise®.

Due to the rapid penetration of telework from last year, visualization of labor conditions has become a major issue for each company. In addition, in terms of security, various threats are increasing more than ever, such as an increase in internal fraud due to unseen and cyber attacks targeting telework terminals that are not protected by in-house security. Due to this trend, there is a rapid increase in the need for endpoint security measures that control terminals such as PCs outside the company's network, and for advanced security.

The "Splunk x LANSCOPE Original App," jointly developed by Macnica and MOTEX, combines LANSCOPE, a company from MOTEX that provides endpoint security, with Splunk, which detects, investigates, and analyzes security incidents based on machine data. By turning various PC operation logs output by LANSCOPE into a dashboard in Splunk, the app enables labor visualization, measures against internal fraud, and measures against software vulnerabilities.

Features of Splunk × LANSCOPE Original App

Labor Visualization (Standard App, Free)

Collect employee PC operation logs, and visualize usage ratios and usage times for web browsers, emails, screensavers (when idle), Office apps, Explorer (time spent searching for files), etc. Dashboards can be modified on an individual and group basis.

Internal Fraud Countermeasures (Paid App)

You can visually manage suspected fraudulent actions such as taking important information out of the organization, writing it to an external device, uploading it to an external device, printing it, attaching it to an email, etc. By setting an alert, it is also possible to send a notification to the administrator. Also, in the unlikely event that something is taken out, the extent of the impact can be identified by tracking who, when, how, where, and what was taken out.

Software vulnerability countermeasure (paid App)

You can manage the entire IT assets of your company, and visualize the presence or absence of vulnerabilities in each software, the target version, and the devices on which the corresponding application is installed.
