Many organizations use AlienVault USM Anywhere because it’s no longer a matter of IF, but WHEN you will be attacked. While this is a great tool, what if you want to outsource the monitoring of your AlienVault USM Anywhere? Find out how Cybriant can help.
What is AlienVault USM Anywhere?
If you have not heard about AlienVault USM Anywhere, “it is a cloud-based security monitoring platform, it combines the necessary security capabilities needed for effective threat detection, compliance management, and incident response. USM Anywhere monitors cloud, on-premises environment, and a hybrid cloud all from one pane of glass. People can sign on and start detecting security threats in just minutes because it is delivered as a service.”
AlienVault® has introduced this comprehensive security management approach with Unified Security Management ™, the first USM product known as the USM Appliance™. USM Appliance become effective threat detection and response to companies of all sizes, specifically for those with limited resources like time, budget, or staff.
Is AlienVault a SIEM?
AlienVault USM Anywhere is more than a single-purpose SIEM. Single-purpose SIEM software solutions and log management tools provide valuable security information, but often require expensive and time-consuming integration efforts to bring in log files from disparate sources such as asset inventory, vulnerability assessment, endpoint agents, and IDS products.
Once you have the data, you then must research and write correlation rules to identify threats in your environment. These challenges multiply as you migrate workloads and services from on-premises infrastructure to public cloud environments.
For today’s resource-strapped IT teams, the time and expense required to deploy a SIEM seriously delay their time to threat detection, and thus, return on investment.
Why Should You Consider a SIEM?
If your organization needs to manage a large amount of data and prioritize any alerts or irregularities on your network, a SIEM is extremely important. it is easier for enterprises to manage security by filtering massive amounts of security data and prioritizing the security alerts the software generates.
By deploying a SIEM in your security stack, you have the ability to detect incidents that may go unnoticed. Logs are created that can identify signs of malicious activity. However, having a SIEM sounds great. But, using one and maintaining a large number of alerts, are a different story.
That’s where organizations like Cybriant come. Our team of security analysts understands the system, alerts, integrations, etc. Plus, we have a team working 24/7 to watch for alerts.
The Move from USM Appliance to USM Anywhere
With the early success of the USM appliance’s integrated security approach, customers knew they needed a single piece of glass to monitor all critical infrastructure, so they made a big decision on how to deliver USM Anywhere. As usual, this was a big change for IT.
Not only is infrastructure moving to the cloud, but in fact, almost everything is moving to the cloud. In practice, most applications are software-as-a-service (SaaS) solutions, as SaaS vendors can achieve a single application scale economy that eliminates even the best performing IT shops. If provided, it will be more cost-effective. That calculation also applies to security vendors.
Customers say they love USM appliances because they solve security challenges. USM Anywhere can be deployed faster and it is easier to use. And it offers the same critical approach to integrated security to address today’s rapidly evolving security challenges. As a result, you can start detecting threats faster while significantly reducing your total cost of ownership.
However, AT&T Cybersecurity announced the end of life for USM Appliance through their reseller network in 2018. “Effective May 15th, 2018 we will no longer process USM Appliance orders for new customers through our reseller network.”
Cybriant recommends moving to USM Anywhere as soon as possible. This is something our team of security analysts has the expertise to help with. Just schedule some time with us to discuss.
