Content Aware SIEM™ (CA-SIEM) represents a new generation of Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) capabilities that provide visibility into the contents of applications, documents and protocols. Without content awareness, a SIEM is only able to act upon the surface details provided by logs. This limits their effectiveness in threat detection, incident response, and compliance reporting, because the data being used lacks sufficient context to make informed, relevant decisions. However this generates a massive increase in event load impacting the performance of current SIEMs, which lack the scale and performance to deliver the real-time results needed. NitroSecurity's NitroView Enterprise Security Manager (ESM) is designed to handle massive volumes of diverse data, logs and content and is the first commercially available Content Aware SIEM.
