Review: LogRhythm
The LogRhythm appliance goes way beyond traditional security event monitoring and management. This appliance features log and event management functions as with any SIEM, but beyond that it includes advanced correlation and pattern recognition driven by its onboard Advanced Intelligence Engine, with host activity and file integrity monitoring, and drill-down capabilities to get to the raw log data for analysis and forensics.

Review: McAfee Enterprise Security Manager
The McAfee Enterprise Security Manager is back this year after a full transformation from its former self, the NitroView ESM. Many of the obvious differences are skin deep, and much of the robustness of the previous product remain intact, including the familiar management console, but more on that shortly. For those who do not know this product, the Enterprise Security Manager is the ultimate high-powered SIEM. This tool uses a proprietary backend database that allows it to collect more than 18,000 events per second from a single receiver and feed them through an advanced correlation engine for deep analysis.

Review: NetIQ Sentinel
Sentinel from NetIQ offers a lot of robust SIEM features and functions. This product features log collection, aggregation, correlation and analysis and reporting - all from one single point that is easy to use and manage. Administrators and security personnel can use this tool to gain a great amount of insight into security events, as well as prevent threats that may be unseen without the use of Sentinel's powerful log correlation engine.
