XM Cyber
XM Cyber
Networks change constantly and that creates problems for IT and security operations. Gaps open exposing pathways that attackers can exploit. While enterprise security controls like firewalls, intrusion prevention, vulnerability management and endpoint tools attempt to secure your network, breaches are still possible. The last line of defense must include constant analysis of daily exposures caused by exploitable vulnerabilities, common configuration mistakes, mismanaged credentials and legitimate user activity that exposes systems to risk of attack. Why are hackers still successful despite significant investments in security controls? Several factors make securing your network difficult, mostly because of overwhelming alerts, never-ending software updates and patches, and numerous vulnerability notifications. Those responsible for security must research and evaluate piles of data without context. Risk reduction is almost impossible. -

Zeek is not an active security device, like a firewall or intrusion prevention system. Rather, Zeek sits on a “sensor,” a hardware, software, virtual, or cloud platform that quietly and unobtrusively observes network traffic. Zeek interprets what it sees and creates compact, high-fidelity transaction logs, file content, and fully customized output, suitable for manual review on disk or in a more analyst-friendly tool like a security and information event management (SIEM) system.Starting Price: Free -

Haystax
Haystax Technology
Our platform analytically monitors threats and prioritizes risk — enabling leaders and operators to act with confidence when it matters most.

With further analytics we can then automatically score the highest-priority threat signals and rapidly deliver them to the right people at the right time. We have also built a tightly integrated ‘ecosystem’ of web and mobile apps to enable our users to manage their critical assets and incident responses. The result is our on-premises or cloud-based Haystax Analytics Platform for early threat detection, situational awareness and information sharing. Read on to learn more! -
