COLUMBIA, Md., May 11, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- EventTracker, a leader in security information and event management (SIEM), today announced that SC Magazine, the information security industry’s leading news and product evaluation publication, has awarded EventTracker SIEMphonic with a perfect 5-star rating in the 2017 UTM/SIEM/NGFW annual product Group Test review. EventTracker received a 5-star rating in the same review for 2016, and EventTracker was previously recognized as SC Magazine’s Best Buy of the category in 2014. The firm also received the Recommended Product distinction in the SIEM category in 2013 and has garnered 5-star ratings over the past five years’ reviews.
SC Magazine’s Technology Editor, Peter Stephenson, wrote, “The SIEMphonic model is what one would expect from a capable defense tool: predict, prevent, respond, and detect. The product provides functionality for each of these parts of the model. For example, to prevent there is vulnerability scanning, 24/7 coverage addresses detection, the company offers forensics and remediation recommendations to assist in response, and all of the threat analysis capability of the Threat Center fills in the prediction piece.”
EventTracker is unique in the industry as a vendor that offers both best-in-class SIEM technology for self-service and a 24/7 intelligence-driven security operations center (SOC) to provide a custom-fit managed service. This is a critical differentiator because the skill shortage of experienced analysts is the leading cause of SIEM products becoming unused shelfware.
SIEMphonic, EventTracker’s flagship service, combines SIEM technology, intrusion detection, vulnerability scanning, flow analysis, and HoneyNet deception capabilities with the fully managed security service. The result is a complete cybersecurity solution that delivers small- and medium-size enterprises (SMEs) the outcome they are seeking—effective cybersecurity at an attractive price point, including managed detection and response (MDR). EventTracker’s technology is comprehensive and complete with modules for every facet of security monitoring. In addition to centralized log management and advanced SIEM features, EventTracker also includes support for user behavior analysis, threat intelligence integration, correlation, alerting, and flexible reporting.
SC Magazine Group Tests determine an opinion of the product based on rigorous testing and evaluation. They rate products in six categories: Features, Documentation, Value for Money, Performance, Support, and Ease of Use.
In giving its verdict on SIEMphonic, SC Magazine wrote, “Especially for organizations with limited expertise in applying all of the things a SIEM can do to protect their enterprises, this product is a must-see. However, any size organization can benefit by considering this part of its security stack.”
“SC Magazine’s recognition of EventTracker SIEMphonic reaffirms our product as the absolute go-to solution for protecting an enterprise’s network and sensitive data from increasingly sophisticated cyberattacks. We are honored that such a prestigious industry publication, respected by security professionals far and wide, views us as a leader in the SIEM and managed security service markets,” said A.N. Ananth, CEO of EventTracker.
