SIEM solutions are a must-have in any organization’s security toolkit. They allow you to analyze events from your network, gain actionable insights into network activity, and detect and mitigate data breaches and other security incidents, all while remaining compliant with regulatory mandates. Log360 is ManageEngine’s comprehensive SIEM offering that helps organizations meet a wide range of auditing, security, and compliance needs.

Gartner has been a thought leader in the SIEM space for the last few years. Gartner’s Magic Quadrant is considered one of the top market research reports on SIEM’s capabilities and vendors. Very recently, I attended the 2019 Gartner Security & Risk Management Conference, and based on thousands of conversations Gartner has had with their clients, they have a good vantage point on the SIEM space this year.

In the new report, “Analytics is making its security operations mark ahead of schedule,” analyst firm 451 Research details the accelerating transition happening in the security information and event management (SIEM) space.

“Computers are bicycles for the mind,” said Steve Jobs once. Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) is biking uphill. Picture this: You cycle hard against the incline and ensure the bike holds up, all the while watching out for incoming traffic in blind turns. The worst part? The bike grinds to a halt when you stop pedaling. You simply can't coast on the steep hill of security operations.

The growing threat of attacks and data breaches on IT systems has made security monitoring more crucial now than ever before. Organizations of all sizes face risks to their data, and without the proper tools in place, a single attack could pose a severe threat to your operations.

Software Reviews, a division of Info-Tech Research Group, has named Log360 a Champion in its recent Customer Experience Report. Out of eleven software vendors evaluated in the SIEM space, Log360 emerged as a 2019 gold medalist.

We’re happy to announce that ManageEngine is an April 2019 Gartner Peer Insights Customers’ Choice for Security Information and Event Management (SIEM).

Since Active Directory is the foundation of all Windows networks, monitoring Active Directory needs to be part of any comprehensive security strategy. Up to version 3.5, EventSentry utilized Windows auditing and the security event log to provide reports on: User Account Changes, Group Changes and Computer Account Changes.

On the security team, we don’t manage any Atlassian products like other Atlassian teams do. Our main product is trust, and that’s a job that’s never finished. To me, security is more of a mindset; one of constant diligence, continuous improvement, and seeking out ways to innovate.
