LogRhythm and Frost & Sullivan Security Experts Outline New Methods to Reduce Detection and Response Time, and Prevent a Cyber Attack from Becoming a Breach

BOULDER, Colo., Oct. 22, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Traditionally, organizations have relied on perimeter-based, reactive cyber defenses such as antivirus (AV), next-generation firewalls (NGFW), unified threat management, and intrusion detection and prevention systems (IDS/IPS). Yet, the onslaught of cyber attacks and the volume of machines, devices and access vectors continue to grow. This is compelling organizations to consider newer, proactive strategies to protect their assets from being compromised.

In an upcoming SC Magazine-hosted webinar titled, "Keeping Compromises from Becoming Breaches," security experts from LogRhythm and Frost & Sullivan will discuss how companies must recognize that their accounts, systems and networks are vulnerable to attack, regardless of the measures in place.

During this webinar, Seth Goldhammer, director of product management at LogRhythm, and Chris Kissel, industry analyst at Frost & Sullivan, will explain how unified security intelligence is helping companies accelerate their mean-time-to-detect (MTTD) and mean-time-to-respond (MTTR) to a network compromise before it turns into a full-scale, destructive breach. The speakers will provide an update on the state of the SIEM market and introduce viewers to new developments in behavioral analytics, network and endpoint monitoring analytics, and advanced search capabilities.

A demonstration of LogRhythm's award-winning Security Intelligence Platform and an open Q&A session will follow the presentation.

Security industry professionals with the following concerns are encouraged to attend:

• They are seeking to reduce their organization's mean-time-to-detect (MTTD) and mean-time-to-respond (MTTR) to cyber threats.
• They struggle to find the "needle in the haystack" of security events.
• They believe their current incident response process lacks adequate automation and efficiency.
• They have a first-gen SIEM platform deployed and are frustrated by its complexity or feel that they still have significant blind spots.

Seth Goldhammer is the director of product management at LogRhythm. He has over 15 years of experience working in the network management and security industry, including starting Roving Planet, where he helped design and build go-to-market strategies for the industry's first network access control products. Seth has served in product management roles at TippingPoint, 3Com and HP Networking, and is responsible for collecting market requirements and speaking at customer events for LogRhythm.
