Be sure to visit Rainer's syslog blog +rsyslog fully superior to syslog-ng (except for platform support).
+ +Following the Fedora Developer's conference in Brno 2012, rsyslog +got very serious on implementing structured logging in +project Lumberjack (CEE) style. Project Lumberjack was a much broader +effort and brought closer collaboration with the syslog-ng folks, which +helped to maintain and improve interoperability. In the +late winter/spring/summer 2012 timeframe numerous engine enhancements +were made and plugins written (among them the first "official" interfaces +to the Linux audit subsystem). At the end of the year, this culminated in the +rsyslog 7, which not only implemented Lumberjack but also was the first one +to support full condition nesting in rsyslog.conf (and a ton of other features as +well). + +
In spring 2013 major new security features were engineered, +namely anonymization support, as well as log file signing and +encryption capabilities. + +
Be sure to visit Rainer's syslog blog to get some more insight into the development and futures of rsyslog and syslog in general. Don't be shy to post to either the blog or the rsyslog forums.
