Securonix Shrinks Cyber Incident Response Time With Phantom Integration

Securonix extends incident response capabilities through integration with Phantom


ADDISON, Texas, Nov. 14, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Securonix, the market leader in big data security analytics and user and entity behavior analytics, today announced integration of its Next Gen SIEM platform with Phantom, the clear leader in Security Automation and Orchestration (SA&O) market. This partnership enables security operations center (SOC) analysts to dramatically improve their mean time to detect and respond to the cyber threats posing the greatest risks to their organizations.

Security teams are struggling with overwhelming numbers of alerts that need to be triaged, analyzed and remediated manually. In order to solve this alert fatigue, security solutions need to improve the detection rates, reduce false positives and automate the unsophisticated response actions while enhancing and retaining the appropriate context of the alert.

“We at Securonix are committed to providing the security management industry the means to fully protect themselves from sophisticated hackers and advanced threats,” said Sam Davis, VP of Business Development and Technology Alliances at Securonix. “Our integration with Phantom extends the incident response capabilities of Securonix’s Next-Gen SIEM, enabling customers to automate end-to-end security management with improved threat detection, prioritization, and speedy response orchestration.”

Securonix’s Next-Gen SIEM leverages a Hadoop big data infrastructure stack coupled with data science to detect and prioritize advanced cyber attacks in real-time. SOC analysts using Securonix SIEM benefit from a drastic reduction in the number of false positives, and hence the alerts they must address. Only critical threats are surfaced using supervised and unsupervised machine learning algorithms. The integration with Phantom enables customers to seamlessly trigger playbooks in Phantom based on threats detected in the Securonix platform.

“We’re pleased to partner with Securonix and believe in the importance of a collaborative, integrated ecosystem to drive detection and response,” said Rich Hlavka, VP of Business Development at Phantom. “By enabling organizations to streamline security operations, Phantom’s innovative technologies for playbook automation and security orchestration complement Securonix in accelerating incident triage and resolution, and maximizing security investments.”

Phantom enhances the playbook-authoring interface and also provides a live runtime review of the playbook execution. IR analysts can build complex playbooks for automation much faster and without writing complex code. All these capabilities enhance the experience of security analysts by making it even easier to build automations and to review the results of the investigation. The platform highlights the findings in a single, improved view to give analysts all the details needed for decision making.
