LogPoint And Fortscale Join Forces To Advance Next Generation SIEM

Fortscale’s embedded UEBA engine, Presidio, will enable hundreds of LogPoint’s SIEM platform customers, to natively detect malicious activity of users and entities, with advanced machine learning analytics.

Copenhagen, Denmark and SAN Francisco, CA (PRWEB) - LogPoint, big data analytics and Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) platform provider, and Fortscale, the pioneer in embeddable User and Entity Behavioral Analytics UBEA, today announced that they have joined forces to provide next generation UEBA and SIEM capabilities to organizations. The partnership enables enterprises to better detect data exfiltration, compromised logon credentials, privileged user account abuse, and other unknown threats.

LogPoint is a winner of Gartner’s Peer Insights Silver award, with the highest rating among vendors, for excellent technology, support and execution. The LogPoint SIEM platform enables enterprises to proactively monitor their networks and rapidly detect and respond to cybersecurity threats. The company also helps organizations meet compliance and regulatory requirements, including auditing guidelines, ISO standards, UK GPG13 and the European Union GDPR. An effective SIEM solution is one of the cornerstones of enterprise security, and the next generation SIEM and big data analytics platform by LogPoint offers unprecedented performance, scalability and flexibility. LogPoint delivers its product on premise and in the cloud and is designed for both internally run, co-managed or managed security deployments (MSSP).

Fortscale’s award-winning UEBA solutions combine advanced machine learning and big data analytics to enable rapid detection and response to malicious user and entity behavior. With no rules or thresholds to define or manage, Fortscale’s out-of-the box capabilities turn alerts, logs, and environmental data into actionable, risk-based intelligence that make it easy to pinpoint and prioritize threats like system and account compromises, data leaks, and insider abuse.

LogPoint will embed the Fortscale Presidio Engine within the LogPoint version 6.0 release. The combined solution will provide customers with a machine-learning based approach to detecting the known unknowns and reacting to threats that are not detectable through other means. Customers will benefit from shorter detection times and more actionable evidence during investigations. That, combined with increased accuracy and greater efficacy will dramatically reduce the effort required by analysts to respond to alerts and incidents.

“At LogPoint, we understand the importance of working with other innovative companies like Fortscale to increase the value of our offering” said Christian Have, Chief Product Officer at LogPoint. ”We are excited about the increased detection capabilities and analytics this solution brings to our customers. With a scalable platform, predictive licensing and out-of-the-box use cases that require very little configuration, partners and customers alike can take the leap into machine learning and advanced analytics with their eyes open—reaping the benefits from day one. Our collaboration with Fortscale embodies our ambition to accelerate detection and response without increasing the workload of security analysts.”

“We are honored to partner with LogPoint, one of the fastest growing and disruptive SIEM companies in the industry” said Idan Tendler, founder and CEO of Fortscale. “I’m confident that LogPoint customers will quickly leverage the various benefits of behavior analytics that will be embedded in their native security infrastructure.”

With Fortscale natively available within LogPoint, UEBA capabilities and features are now accessible to a whole new set of companies. Even smaller organizations that may not have a dedicated security operations center can now enjoy the benefits of user and entity behavior analytics.
