SUNNYVALE, Calif., April 17, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Micro Focus
(LSE: MCRO; NYSE: MFGP) today announced ArcSight Enterprise
Security Manager (ESM) 7.0, the latest release of its
market-leading solution that prioritizes security threats and
compliance violations with real-time threat intelligence to quickly
identify and impede potential cyber-attacks. By collecting,
correlating, and reporting security event information at a massive
scale, Micro Focus ArcSight ESM 7.0 helps organizations meet even
the most demanding security requirements, while simplifying and
improving time to value.
Big data in the enterprise is pervasive—with a massive growth of
data being generated by interconnected IT systems, and a growing
demand for faster response times, the sheer amount of data that
Security Operations Centers (SOCs) have to deal with can be
overwhelming. Sifting through the noise, prioritizing analysis and
response efforts and confidently using threat intelligence to make
the right decisions is extremely difficult. Furthermore, the only
way to extract intelligence from the data is through a central
processing unit (CPU) and memory intensive analytics and
correlation. With distributed correlation, Micro Focus offers a
powerful, new way to scale SIEMs analytics and event correlation
without the need to incur excess costs, so that customers can focus
on providing security insights and scaling their business without
limits.
"Despite recent advances in compute and storage, many
organizations continuously evaluate the cost-benefit of event
ingestion into their analytics tools," said Mary Writz, Head of Product Management, ArcSight
Solutions at Micro Focus. "The distributed correlation engine in
ESM 7.0 has the ability to analyze massive amounts of data while
adding security context to raw data in real-time, making it
instantly usable for analysis and identification of events of
interest (EOI)."
With ArcSight ESM 7.0 and its newly introduced distributed
correlation, customers will find:
- Improved correlation fidelity with more contextual event
analysis
- More efficient use of resources as ESM dynamically identifies
EOI
- Improvements to ESM availability and redundancy
- Better cost/performance flexibility
- Flexible expansion and capacity planning options to solve for a
wider set of security use cases
- Backwards compatibility with existing rules & content
- The ability to get more value from existing security tools and
events
Micro Focus and the ArcSight ESM 7.0 team will be sponsoring the
upcoming industry RSA Conference in San
Francisco, April 16-20, 2018
booth #3417 North Hall.
