At HP Protect, HP(NYSE:HPQ) has addressed nearly 1,500 security professionals, introducing new offerings designed to arm organizations with the actionable security intelligence needed to engage a more proactive defense against the adversary.
The average cost of cybercrime has increased 78 per cent in the last four years, putting the industry on the defensive against adversaries that attack with unmatched speed, innovation and collaboration. To keep pace with these growing threats, security professionals need to gather intelligence, determine its relevance and then use it to build a proactive defense that can anticipate, neutralize or mitigate an attack.
"Adversaries are capitalizing on fragmented security strategies, siloed teams and standalone point products to aggressively attack and gain entry through every door left open across an organization. We need intelligence and automation that empowers security professionals to take action against the adversary - and gets the right intelligence to the right people at the right time," said Jyoti Prakash, Country Director, HP ESP India and SARRC Countries.
To address the challenge of parsing through an increasing amount of data to deliver actionable security intelligence, HP is introducing HP ArcSight Logger 6.0, the latest release of its universal log management solution that unifies collection, storage and analysis of machine data to consolidate security and compliance. A core part of the leading HP ArcSight Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) portfolio, HP ArcSight Logger 6.0 offers enhanced scalability to handle eight times more data at ten times higher performance than the previous version to deliver continuous monitoring and high-speed contextual forensic investigation capabilities.
