SIM Is Evolving (Into Security Analytics)!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Old-fashioned, rules-based Security Information Management (SIM) has had a good run. It&#8217;s been around since the mid-nineties and became a mainstay in the enterprise security toolkit as companies sought to keep up with mandates like PCI DSS by using SIM as a compliance tool. But now, with a\u00a0surge of cyberthreats and an explosion in competing cybersecurity tools, legacy SIM must evolve to keep up, says Forrester. In this new threat landscape, vendors are adding security analytics features to existing solutions, and newer vendors are building SA solutions that leverage newer technologies without the baggage of legacy solutions.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><br \/>Widget not in any sidebars<br \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u00a0Forrester&#8217;s research has shown that 74% of global enterprise security technology decision makers rate improving security monitoring as a high or critical priority, while 64% of global network security decision makers at enterprises have already implemented or are expanding their implementation of SIM and SA. An additional 17% of decision makers say they are planning to implement a SA solutions within the next year, says Forrester.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Four Vendors Lead The Way<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Forrester\u2019s research found a stratified market in which IBM, Splunk, LogRhythm, and RSA\u00a0are Leaders, HPE, Securonix, E8 Security, Fortinet, and Intel Security,\u00a0offer competitive options, while BAE Systems and Hunstman security offer developing solutions.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Forrester praised IBM&#8217;s QRadar Security\u00a0products for its strong cognitive security\u00a0capabilities and for introducing security automation following its <a href=\"https:\/\/solutionsreview.com\/security-information-event-management\/ibm-resilient-systems-acquisition\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">acquisition<\/a>\u00a0of incident response vendor Resilient Systems. \u00a0Likewise, LogRhythm, the largest &#8220;pure-play&#8221; SIM vendor on the market, was lauded for\u00a0its feature-rich platform that &#8220;includes traditional SIM capabilities along with SUBA, file integrity monitoring (FIM), SAO, endpoint monitoring, and NAV functionality.&#8221; \u00a0On the other hand, vendors on the opposite spectrum of the \u2018Wave\u2019 were criticized for shortcomings in their security monitoring capabilities and limited market reach.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cambridge-Ma based analyst house Forrester Research has released the latest iteration of its flagship Wave report for Security Analytics solutions.
