NGINX Web Server
Version: NGINX installed on the Linux-based operating system and Microsoft Windows-based operating system.
The NGINX is a web server that can also be used as a reverse proxy, load balancer HTTP cache, and a generic TCP/UDP proxy server.
Netsurion Open XDR helps to monitor events from the NGINX Web Server. Its dashboard and reports will help you track the user requests which are suspicious with reference to SQL injection, access logs with a bad request, and user requests which are suspicious with reference to Cross-site Scripting.
Netsurion Data Source Integration for NGINX Web Server allows you to monitor the following components:
- Security – Information related to the suspicious activities concerning the web attacks.
- Operation – Information related to the server error and client access errors.
After the NGINX Web Server is configured to deliver events to the Netsurion Open XDR Manager, the dashboards and reports can be configured into Netsurion Open XDR.
The following are the key Data Source Integration available in Netsurion Open XDR.
