Solutions Review: The Eight Niche Players in SIEM, 2020

These providers have recently been named Niche Players in SIEM in 2020 by analyst house Gartner, Inc. 

Gartner defines SIEM by “customers’ need to analyze security event data in real-time, which supports the early detection of attacks and breaches. SIEM systems collect, store, investigate, support mitigation and report on security data for incident response, forensics and regulatory compliance.” Additionally, Gartner considers SIEM a mature market, offering few if any predictions about the future of the cybersecurity branch. 

The following providers recently received the title of Niche Player in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for SIEM in 2020. Gartner does not consider Niche Players as lesser than Leaders; instead Niche Players “provide SIEM technology that is a good match with a specific SIEM use case or a subset of SIEM functional requirements.” In fact, Gartner strongly praises the Niche Players and their capabilities.

The report, which highlights and scores the top products in the industry, also explores the top capabilities in the market including threat management and compliance. Each provider’s market share and product portfolios differ, which is what makes them interesting to the wider audience of SIEM customers. 

Here, we provide a brief comment about each and links to product details so you can learn more. Note: providers listed below in alphabetical order.
