Gurucul Next-Gen SIEM earns prestigious industry recognition for advanced ML analytics, threat content and patented risk engine
WASHINGTON, D.C. (June 8, 2022) – Gurucul, a leader in Next-Gen SIEM, XDR, UEBA, and Identity Access Analytics, today announced that Gurucul’s Analytics-Driven Next Generation SIEM (available as part of Gurucul’s Security Analytics and Operations platform) has been named the best Big Data Reporting and Analytics Solution of 2022 as part of the annual SIIA CODiE Awards. The CODiE Awards recognize the companies producing the most innovative business technology products across the country, and around the world.
“The Gurucul Next-Gen SIEM’s CODiE Award win for Big Data Reporting and Analytics further recognizes our deep commitment to developing security solutions aligned with customer objectives to accelerate their threat detection, investigation and response programs, while improving TCO,” said Saryu Nayyar, Gurucul’s CEO. “For one, we don’t penalize our customers for increasing data ingestion that improves overall observability. We actually want more data and therefore charge by assets monitored. Couple that with automated data ingestion for any data source, industry-leading depth and breadth of analytics that includes over 2600 transparent machine learning models, and comprehensive threat content, we can reduce manual tasks, automate detection, and streamline investigations. In addition, with our full enterprise-class risk engine and dynamically generated playbooks, we can improve response times with prioritized and more precise actions to thwart internal and external threat actors from disrupting operations, stealing sensitive data, or detonating ransomware.”
Most SIEM and XDR products still deluge the Security Operations team with a flood of information without context and lack the necessary analytics across all potential data sources to quickly identifying known, new, and unknown threats. This leads to manual correlation, chasing false positives, and prolonged investigation of events that hampers the effectiveness of security teams. Gurucul takes a different approach that leverages the industry’s largest library of threat content and machine learning (ML) based advanced analytics and delivering risk-prioritized contextual alerts not prioritizing investigations, but also reducing investigation time. While other vendors rely on rule-based ML, essentially static flow-charts, Gurucul has developed a true trained ML engine that can adapts to customer environments, while also better distinguishing between abnormal, suspicious, and malicious activity. By applying these unique capabilities across massive volumes of data in a vendor-agnostic data lake, Gurucul looks across all events and varied telemetry (for multi-cloud, on-prem infrastructure, identity, and applications) to provide complete and precise threat visibility, detection, and response actions to security teams.
Benefits of Gurucul Next-Gen SIEM include:
