There is all kinds of noise in the Cisco ASA logs we don't need.
When I monitor /var/log/secure on linux systems I just look for
this:

(stunnel|SSL|login|su.*:|gsu.*:|sshd.*:|Duo |WebAuth[-:]|AuditSQL:|ftp.*:|sftp.*:|ntpd)

And I have a long whitelist for Windows log and igure the rest,
and also I trim off all the verbeage at the end of the log. I put
a translate table into my install and the event codes are automatically translated on search.

3.  What is your per day license?

20 Gigabytes. But we filter-out logs that have no security application.
Without those filters we would need three times that.

Garrett -- what do you generate that you consider having no security
application? An off-list response is fine if you're okay with sharing
but don't want to send it to the world.
