NitroSecurity Introduces MARS Migration Program Rescuing Cisco's Marooned SIEM Customers

Industry sources have confirmed that Cisco has begun informing its customers of a freeze on MARS support for most non-Cisco event sources and is encouraging customers to find an alternative for log collection and event analysis for non-Cisco event sources. Under the MARS Migration program, NitroSecurity will perform a free customized analysis of an organization's current infrastructure and provide a custom tailored technology and financial solution, including credits for existing MARS systems, to migrate to NitroView, the industry's first and only content-aware SIEM platform.

Unlike legacy SIEM solutions whose slower performance limits information visibility to standard network device and server logs, NitroView drills deep and monitors all traffic on the network up to the application layer, protocol use and individual sessions. Using patented data storage and management technology that smashes performance barriers plaguing other SIEM providers, NitroView is able to collect and manage billions of events, logs, network activity flows, and even application content-while maintaining the real-time analytics that are required for rapid incident response.

"The requirements around SIEM are radically changing," said Jon Oltsik, principal analyst at Enterprise Strategy Group. "Large organizations need a platform that can help them address new security risks, analyze historical trends, support internal corporate governance initiatives and meet regulatory requirements. To accomplish these goals, SIEM platforms must feature massive scalability, strong analytics, content-awareness and broad support for heterogeneous IT assets. Moving forward, it is imperative that large organizations choose SIEM vendors like NitroSecurity with products that offer all these capabilities today and commit to continue to do so into the future."
