SolarWinds announced today enhancements to its security information and event management product, SolarWinds Log & Event Manager.
Enhancements to SolarWinds LEM, designed for resource-constrained IT organizations, include the introduction of new Configuration and Rules Wizards.
“As IT departments experience ever-increasing pressure to secure their environments, they also face new threats and an uphill battle to acquire the resources necessary to mitigate them,” said Chris LaPoint, group vice president of product management, SolarWinds. “Most IT Pros don’t have the time to manually configure security monitoring or become experts in specific systems before implementation, so they need quick access to accurate, actionable data to better protect their environments and prevent security incidents. With enhanced usability that makes SIEM implementation, configuration and threat notification quick and seamless, SolarWinds LEM helps take some of the security weight off IT Pros’ shoulders.”
The new Configuration Wizard is designed to guide IT professionals through implementation and configuration of SolarWinds LEM, and the new Rules Wizard provides best practice information and simplified methods to create correlation rules.
