IBM is boosting its security solutions to help organizations to reduce detection time for security breaches and investigate these threats before they can significantly impact the business.
IBM Security QRadar Incident Forensics, a new software product designed as a module for the QRadar Security Intelligence Platform, can help security teams retrace the step-by-step actions of sophisticated cyber criminals. By adding this forensics capture and search module to its QRadar Security Intelligence platform, IBM can further strengthen its clients’ abilities to efficiently investigate security incidents and understand the impact of any suspicious activity. QRadar Incident Forensics provides a record of activity on the network, enabling organizations to retrace suspicious activity, provide alerts to growing concerns, and provide forensics search capabilities.
According to a newly released IBM X-Force Threat Intelligence Quarterly Report, in 2013, more than half a billion records of personally identifiable information were leaked through a number of attacks against strategic targets.
“Every breach is a race against time. This new forensics module further expands the breadth and depth of IBM’s security intelligence capabilities,” said Brendan Hannigan, general manager of IBM Security Systems. “QRadar Incident Forensics further helps IT staff prevent emerging threats and better determine the impact of any intrusion.”
