NitroSecurity Launches Security Information and Event Management Platform

NitroSecurity, Inc., announced it has released the NitroView Enterprise Security Manager (ESM) X5, a content-aware Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) platform with the ability to examine application content and individual sessions for network security forensics.

"SIEM systems must evolve well beyond log management if they are to truly become a critical element of the enterprise security contingency plan," said Michael Leland, CTO of NitroSecurity. "NitroView X5 gives security managers the ability to examine their infrastructure in full granular detail, including application content and full session details. It's the difference between guessing that a security breach may have happened four hours ago and knowing exactly which workstation, employee, and method was implemented to illegally capture credit card information."

At the core of a ten-fold jump in performance is a memory bank of 512 Gigabytes of DRAM. As a result, the X5 can support uncompressed collection rates of up to 100,000 events and flows per second, and over 40 million events per second using event aggregation technology. the company noted in a release.
