Overview<br />
• Acquired by HP in 2010, ArcSight became the most valuable<br />
asset in the company’s focused security strategy. ArcSight is the<br />
largest player in the SIEM space and has recently expanded its<br />
portfolio to be more applicable to the mid-market.<br />
Strengths<br />
• An architecturally sound solution allowing for widely varying<br />
deployment models; the ability to mix and match Collectors and<br />
Loggers with a core Express device offers great flexibility.<br />
• Offers the ability to tightly correlate security events to users via<br />
IdentityView, an add-on capability that monitors user activity<br />
across all accounts, applications, and systems.<br />
Challenges<br />
• ArcSight has trimmed its impressive enterprise-focused ESM<br />
solution to build Express, but in doing so has left out some of<br />
ESM’s differentiating advanced capabilities.<br />
