Description
Log reduction is the capability of a system to consolidate, archive, and compress audit logs. This process saves space when saving these logs over a long time period. Log entries must not be removed from the log in order to reduce the size; however, the file may be compressed. Audit log reduction is configured on the IDPS application audit log on the organization's central log server, thus this is not a function performed by the IDPS itself.
