Editor’s Choice in Comparative Review
of Eight Security Information
Management Solutions
ArcSight Enterprise Security
Manager Secures Second Consecutive Top
Honors
CUPERTINO, Calif., May 31, 2006
–ArcSight, Inc., a global leader
in Enterprise Security Management
(ESM) software, today announced that
its ESM solution has achieved its
second consecutive first place finish
in Network Computing’s Editor’s
Choice. In comprehensive tests
conducted at Network Computing’s
Neohapsis Real-World Labs®, ArcSight
outperformed seven competing
products.
According to Network Computing,
ArcSight beat out competitors due in
part to a broad set of preconfigured
dashboards, as well as a very broad
array of tools to monitor and manage
the system. Greg Shipley from Network
Computing said, “ArcSight's SIM suite
is the most comprehensive SIM tool we
have tested. ArcSight beat out
competitors due in part to a broad set
of preconfigured dashboards, as well
as a dizzying array of tools to
monitor and manage the system.
ArcSight ESM sports an extremely
flexible "connector" framework capable
of bandwidth throttling and batch
queuing; both Web and Java console
access; reporting and
incident-analysis tools; support for a
wide range of device types, including
more than 120 products from 60-plus
vendors; and a comprehensive real-time
correlation capability that we found
helpful. ArcSight ESM remains a few
steps ahead of the competition.”
“Network Computing is one of the
most respected testing publications in
the industry, and renowned for
evaluating products against real-world
requirements,” said Steve Sommer,
senior vice president of marketing and
business development at ArcSight.
“Winning the Editor’s Choice for a
second time in a row is a powerful
endorsement of ArcSight and our
ability to deliver a comprehensive ESM
solution that fulfills customer
requirements for security, regulatory
compliance and insider threat
management.”
All Network Computing product
reviews are conducted by current or
former IT professionals in Network
Computing’s Neohapsis Real-World
Labs®, according to the publication’s
own test criteria. Vendor involvement
is limited to assistance in
configuration and troubleshooting.
Network Computing schedules reviews
based solely on editors’ editorial
judgment of reader needs, and tests
