Problem Statement
Deploy a log monitoring system
Log management systems provide a commercial solution for log collection, analysis, and reporting. Log management systems provide a configuration interface to manage log collection, as well as options for the storage of logs—often allowing the administrator to configure log retention parameters by individual log source.

Background of the Problem
Organizations generate massive amounts of log data and events through applications, networks, systems, and users, and therefore require a systematic process to manage and monitor disparate data across log files. Log management is a continuous process of centrally collecting, parsing, storing, analyzing, and disposing of data to provide actionable insights for supporting troubleshooting, performance enhancement, or security monitoring
Objective
In this method, the user is required to select some images (let’s say different chocolates) in a specific pattern (for example dairy milk is followed by 5 stars which is in turn followed by KitKat and so on). Next time the user tries to log in, the images would have been shuffled, but the user will be required to follow the same pattern which was used initially. Every time the user will have to use the same sequence while the images are placed in different ways. This type of authentication is difficult to break since neither brute force nor dictionary attacks could breach it. We need techniques that can be easily implemented and provide better results to this process.
Summary
The Importance of logging and best practices. A log is a computer-generated file that captures activity within the operating system or software applications. The log file automatically documents any information designed by the system administrators, including: messages, error reports, file requests and file transfers.
