RSA Security Analytics is designed to improve threat detection,
investigations and response by consuming network flow data, full
packet capture (PCAP), logs, and endpoint data, as well as
information from other security systems, external threat
intelligence and IT assets. Additionally, RSA Security Analytics
applies multiple advanced analytics engines, including behavioral
analytics, and investigative interfaces to this data to help
detect attacks before they can impact the business.
One of the unique aspects of the architecture is RSA Security
Analytics' support of RSA's Event Stream Analysis (ESA) technology
which is engineered to deliver advanced analytics by enabling both
correlations and more sophisticated machine learning-based
techniques to detect and provide prioritized alerts on security
incidents, as well as providing the full scope of an attack
campaign.
Furthermore, RSA Security Analytics is designed to enable
forensic investigations that make it simpler for security teams to
determine the root cause of an incident in the broader scope of an
attack campaign. RSA Security Analytics regularly receives fresh
threat intelligence information and other content continuously
through its RSA® Live service, which is included
with the product. The RSA Live service provides machine-readable
threat intelligence thus making the intelligence actionable
immediately.
One other distinguishing capability of RSA Security Analytics is
the ingestion of RSA® ECAT data, providing
endpoint threat detection and response. When used together, the
combined solution provides security teams with visibility, threat
detection and response capabilities from endpoints to the
cloud.
"Network-based security monitoring is not just important for the
detection of malware; it is critical for the detection and
investigation of a broad set of security incidents using multiple
forms of telemetry and analytics," explained Frost & Sullivan
Research Analyst Christopher Kissel.
"RSA Security Analytics provides a comprehensive set of
capabilities for incident detection and security forensics.
Metadata generation and full network packet capture gives RSA
Security Analytics depth and real-time visibility to determine the
security posture of the enterprise as traffic traverses its
network."
"RSA's solution is ahead in the technology race, creating
significant advantages for security monitoring teams," added
Kissel. "When a potential breach is detected, the ideal forensics
system helps the security analyst act swiftly to contain the
threat. RSA's central management of incidents, generation of
metadata across multiple data sources, session replay to view
exactly what occurred and what was exfiltrated, and the use of
advanced analytics and machine learning enables exemplary threat
detection and response."
