IBM QRadar SIEM

About IBM QRadar SIEM

IBM QRadar SIEM is a security information and event management platform for security analysts to accurately detect, prioritize, investigate and quickly respond to threats across cloud-based and on-premises environments. QRadar monitors the enterprise network using machine learning and AI algorithms, providing teams with intelligent insights which enable security analysts to formulate a response plan before attackers are able to damage systems, steal data, or disrupt business operations.

QRadar provides tools for advanced persistent threat detection which enable security analysts to collect data on low risk events in order to identify the high risk cyber attacks which are underway. By correlating current and historical security information, security teams are provided with a single view into the broader threat, as events related to the same threat are automatically chained together. QRadar helps security teams to formulate a response plan, speed up investigation times by leveraging cognitive intelligence, and begin activating automated incident response processes using the IBM Resilient integration.

For insider threat detection, QRadar provides advanced analytics and machine-learning algorithms to help identify high-risk activities, uncover compromised credentials, prioritize high-risk users, and alert security teams to serious incidents. Integrated identity governance solutions enable users to suspend high-risk users’ accounts to contain threats and block potential damage. Integration with cloud services including Amazon Web Service (AWS), Azure, Office 365, SalesForce, and traditional on-premises infrastructure help security analysts to better detect and respond to threats regardless of their location.

QRadar also includes tools for compliance and data privacy to ensure the protection of sensitive data for both brand reputation and compliance with regulations including GDPR. The platform alerts security teams to any suspicious activities that may signal an attempt of data theft, and continuously analyzes network traffic to detect new assets on the network. The optional vulnerability scanner feature prioritizes risks and vulnerabilities, while security features provide insights into sensitive databases and access entitlements across the network.
