Which of the following options is a vendor-neutral standard for message logging?
SIEM
syslog
SNMP
Event manager
Syslog is a vendor-neutral standard for message logging. It includes a standard format for log messages and a network protocol for sending that data to a central logging server. It is widely used by network devices like routers, switches, and firewalls, and on Unix and Linux operating systems. The other options are incorrect. A Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) system collects and analyzes logs but is not the logging standard itself. Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is a protocol for network management, not a logging standard. 'Event manager' refers to proprietary systems like the Windows Event Viewer, not a vendor-neutral standard.
