Security Information Management
Gain Real-time Insight, Visibility and Control
Over Your Critical Data and Valuable Assets
Security threats are becoming increasingly subtle
and sophisticated, so protecting valuable corporate assets and critical
data from internal and external threats and data breaches is a growing
challenge. Organizations need a practical and affordable way to solve
two key security problems—monitoring and analyzing enormous volumes of
security event data efficiently enough to:
- Identify actual threats and prevent them from impacting business operations and causing financial damage
- Document and demonstrate
your organization's compliance with industry and regulatory
mandates
- Prove to auditors and other third parties your IT controls
are in place and effective
Conventional SIM Solutions: Are They Working?
With the growing sophistication of security threats endangering the enterprise, managing security information is becoming increasingly complex and costly for organizations using traditional security measures. Conventional enterprise-class security information management (SIM) solutions are complicated, costly to implement and manage, and require significant ongoing investments in infrastructure and specialized personnel. And with their poor record of effectiveness, the return on investment is dismal, even for the largest organizations. But doing nothing isn't an option anymore.
On the other end of the spectrum are products that claim to be full-blown SIM products but are only enhanced log aggregation tools. Log aggregation products fill a specific need but organizations should be aware what they're purchasing. These plug-and-play appliances suggest they do both log collection and real-time threat identification and remediation. Yet customers usually find that these solutions fall short. These tools lack critical SIM functions, including:
- Important correlation capabilities for identifying incidents
- Workflow management functionality for resolving incidents
- The ability to scale to effectively handle the event loads
- Enterprise-wide visibility for an accurate assessment of risk posture
- Adequate visibility into the threats facing your databases
Plus, getting these appliances to handle the massive amounts of security data at both the perimeter and the core can be costly. Organizations are often faced with anywhere from 2x to 25x the cost of the initial deployment because additional hardware is needed. So in reality, these products aren't designed to fully address the challenges of today's security threats and compliance requirements. What's needed is a powerful SIM product that can scale, provide a complete enterprise-wide picture of risk posture, yet is affordable and easy to use. That's nFX SIM One.
