These days, organizations face an ever-increasing number of security threats from internal privileged users and external attackers, including APTs. SIEMs are only part of the solution available to Security teams that require true actionable intelligence, the right information at the right time to the right stakeholder to help identify and mitigate security threats and protect corporate assets.
NetIQ has announced that Change Guardian 4.0, which detects and responds to potential threats in real time through intelligent alerting of unauthorized access and changes to critical files, systems, and applications.
Most organizations employ SIEM technology as a critical piece of the security infrastructure. However, SIEM alone is no longer enough to achieve sufficient layers of data protection and risk mitigation. Change Guardian complements and extends SIEM by delivering the deeper actionable intelligence on changes to systems and actions of privileged users to more quickly identify and remediate attacks before considerable damage is done.
“Unauthorized change and user activity are a leading cause of security breaches and early indicators of a targeted attack. Security teams need actionable information that can extend their ability to manage risk and avoid business disruptions. Our expectations are that as organizations increasingly adopt BYOD, Mobility and Cloud, they will face even greater risks and demands, making solutions like Change Guardian a fundamental requirement to simplify and centralize response,” said Geoff Webb, Director, Solution Strategy, NetIQ.
Change Guardian 4.0 is generally available worldwide and offered on a subscription basis or perpetual licence.
