Paul is looking for a free solution that will aggregate the security logs from devices across his organization. Which one of the following tools would best meet his needs?
A. Journalctl
B. Syslog
C. NXlog
D. Wireshark
Correct Answer: C
NXlog is a log management tool available in a free, open-source edition that would meet Paul’s needs. So, this is our correct answer. Syslog is a format used to exchange log messages and not a log aggregation solution. Journalctl is a command-line utility used to view system logs. Wireshark is a protocol analyzer used to sniff network traffic
