Network security devices and tools
Silver Award:
ArcSight TrueThreat Discovery 1.0
With high visibility across the network, TrueThreat Discovery is able to identify and stop less common threats, such as "low and slow" attacks that can affect multiple devices and users. This product can also catch many threats that originate inside the network, providing early warnings that many other security devices might miss.
ArcSight's product also impressed the judges with its relative ease of use. Unlike many of the other security products on the market, the TrueThreat Discovery does not require any cumbersome pre-configuration and can be programmed to identify threats based on simple yet specific criteria with little time-consuming input.
The ArcSight team provides 24x7, over-the-phone support services for TrueThreat Discovery. The only category in which it did not score especially well with our judges was price; the product starts at $20,000.
