BOULDER, CO — October 30, 2018 — LogRhythm, the Security Intelligence Company, announced today that a recent survey of its customers found that 33 percent of them have adopted the company’s embedded security orchestration, automation, and response (SOAR) capabilities. This rapid adoption rate far exceeds Gartner’s 2018 estimate that standalone SOAR products have been adopted by less than one percent of security organizations with five or more security professionals, an adoption rate expected to reach only 15 percent by 2020. 1
The embedded SOAR features in LogRhythm’s NextGen SIEM Platform provide security teams with customizable workflows and controls to streamline and accelerate the investigation and neutralization of qualified cyberthreats. LogRhythm’s end-to-end platform provides insights into how to improve security operations center (SOC) performance. With clear, trackable metrics, security leaders can quickly identify and address potential areas for improvement to increase the efficiency and effectiveness of their security operations teams. These performance metrics also enable security leaders to prove and quantify the overall business value driven by their teams.
“In cybersecurity, automation and orchestration is becoming more and more important,” said Rob Haller, information systems security engineer at US Acute Care, a national leader in physician-owned integrated acute care. “That’s why we use LogRhythm’s NextGen SIEM Platform. Its SmartResponse™ feature and back-end API connections allow us to automate common actions, while LogRhythm’s case management and playbooks allow us to standardize our investigation methods and responses, adding speed, reliability and consistency to our security practice.”
Three new features of LogRhythm’s most recent 7.4 software release empower security teams to implement effective, end-to-end security operations workflows: Case Playbooks, SmartResponse automation actions and SOC metrics. Building on the existing case management and automation framework of LogRhythm’s NextGen SIEM Platform, these new capabilities enable security teams to deliver consistent, measurable results for threat investigation and neutralization:
“LogRhythm’s 7.4 software release demonstrates its continued momentum forward as an innovator in the SIEM arena,” said Michael Suby, Stratecast VP of Research at Frost & Sullivan. “By developing repeatable SOC practices embedded within a NextGen SIEM Platform, organizations are enabled to consistently mature their overall security posture and leverage their workflow metrics to add assurance that the maturation process is performed efficiently and effectively.”
“Speed is the name of the game when it comes to SOAR. Our 7.4 release adds functionality to our existing capabilities that further accelerates and optimizes time spent by security operations teams. Our Case Playbooks help teams quickly and consistently execute standard tasks and actions to support threat investigation and incident response,” said Chris Petersen, co-founder and chief product and technology officer at LogRhythm. “More than 45 new automation actions return valuable cognitive cycles to security analysts and reduce the need to perform a myriad of manual tasks. And, SOC managers can more easily monitor the active workloads of their teams to quickly report results and risk to the business.”
LogRhythm helps security teams stop breaches by turning disconnected data and signals into trustworthy insights. From connecting the dots across diverse log and threat intelligence sources to using sophisticated machine learning that spots suspicious anomalies in network traffic and user behavior, LogRhythm accurately pinpoints cyberthreats and empowers professionals to respond with speed and efficiency.
With cloud-native and self-hosted deployment flexibility, out-of-the-box integrations, and advisory services, LogRhythm makes it easy to realize value quickly and adapt to an ever-evolving threat landscape. Together, LogRhythm and our customers confidently monitor, detect, investigate, and respond to cyberattacks. Learn more at logrhythm.com.
