capability that empowers users to monitor their access
for risk-ranked anomalous and suspicious activity,
similar to the feedback loop that credit cards and credit
monitoring agencies provide for their customers. The
rich context that users provide goes beyond the knowledge
of security analysts in security operation centers to
identify and confirm anomalies. Self audits also provide
security awareness and deterrence as key elements of an
insider threat program.
Gurucul GRA allows customers to implement data
lakes of their choice with the ability to compute and
store on big data for higher performance and increased
data variety than legacy architectures. This provides
efficiencies for machine learning models and significant
savings by avoiding SIEM indexing fees, proprietary storage
and data transfer fees.
Gurucul’s newest release of GRA includes another
innovation: Gurucul STUDIO. The intuitive step-by-step
graphical interface does the heavy lifting to enable customers
in highly regulated organizations, government
agencies and the intelligence community to create their
own custom machine learning models without the need
for data science expertise or coding. Along with an open
choice for big data, GRA also includes a flex data connector
to ingest legacy (i.e. mainframe, building access
systems) or new (i.e. SaaS apps, CASBs) data sources
without coding or professional services. This enables
customers to analyze any dataset with desired attributes
through machine learning models with predictive risk
scoring outcomes.
Finally, Gurucul GRA is a proven big-data security
analytics solution that is successfully deployed by government
agencies and global Fortune 500 companies
across the financial, healthcare, technology, retail and
manufacturing sectors.
