The number of data breaches in 2016 hit a record high of 1,093, with a total of 36,601,939 records compromised, according to a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.idtheftcenter.org\/images\/breach\/2016\/DataBreachReport_2016.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">report from the ITRC<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">The average total cost of those breaches? $7.01 million, according to <a href=\"https:\/\/www-01.ibm.com\/common\/ssi\/cgi-bin\/ssialias?htmlfid=SEL03094USEN\" target=\"_blank\">new research<\/a> from the Ponemon institute.

Its programs now reach more than 165,000 security professionals around the world.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Every year, the SANS Institute surveys those 165,000 security practitioners, most of whom use commercial products, and publishes what the community likes best.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Created to &#8220;raise awareness of the solutions that organizations are using to successfully fend off attacks,&#8221; The SANS Best of Program showcases the solutions that SANS says are &#8220;making a difference by reducing the business impact of cyber attacks in real world applications we believe we can help security professionals to reduce the number of successful intrusions.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Check out the full list of winners below\u00a0or at the SANS site <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sans.org\/critical-security-controls\/best-of-awards\" target=\"_blank\">here.\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><div class=\"column half\"><p style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong>Vulnerabilty Assessment<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Winner: Tenable Nessus<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Honorable Mentions: Rapid7, Qualys<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong>End Point Protection<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Winner:\u00a0Cylance Protect<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Honorable Mentions:\u00a0Symantec, Trend Micro<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong>Threat Intelligence:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Winner:\u00a0Crowdstrike Falcon Intelligence<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Honorable Mentions:\u00a0FireEye Threat Intelligence, Cisco ThreatGrid<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong>Next Gen Firewall<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Winner: Palo Alto Networks PA Series<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Honorable Mentions:\u00a0CheckPoint Software, Fortinet<\/p><\/div><\/p>\n<div class=\"column half last\"><p><strong>Application Security<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Winner: Qualys WAS<\/p>\n<p>Honorable Mentions:\u00a0Rapid7, Checkmarx, Veracode<\/p>\n<p><strong>Endpoint Detection\/Response:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Winner:\u00a0Carbon Black Platform<\/p>\n<p>Honorable Mention:\u00a0Palo Alto Network Traps, CounterTack Sentinel<\/p>\n<p><strong>Advanced Threat Detection<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Winner: FireEye Intrusion NX<\/p>\n<p>Honorable Mentions:\u00a0Snort, Cisco<\/p>\n<p><strong>SIEM<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Winner:\u00a0LogRhythm Security Intelligence Platform<\/p>\n<p>Honorable Mentions:\u00a0Splunk, IBM<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><\/div><div class=\"clear\"><\/div>\n<p>Those of you looking for a more in-depth breakdown of the SIEM market may also be interested in the following resources:<\/p>\n<p><em><a href=\"https:\/\/solutionsreview.com\/security-information-event-management\/gartner-critical-capabilities-for-security-information-and-event-management\/\" target=\"_blank\">Compare the capabilities of the top SIEM vendors with Gartner\u2019s 2015-2016 SIEM Critical Capabilities Report.
