Bold Assertions about Big Data Security Threats
September 17, 2013
Big Data comes with its own slew of security problems, but could it actually be used to keep track of them? The idea of using big data to catch security threats is a novel idea and a big one to stand behind. PR Newswire lets is know that, “AnubisBetworks’s Big Data Intelligence Platform Analyses Millions Of Cyber Security Threat Events.” AnubisNetworks is a well-known name in the IT security risk management software and cloud solutions field and its newest product to combat cyber threats is StreamForce. StreamForce is a real-time intelligence platform that detects and analyzes millions of cyber security threats per second.
StreamForce de-duplicates events to help speed up big data storage burden, which is one of the biggest challenges big data security faces.
“Within the new “big-data” paradigm – the exponential growth, availability and use of information, both structured and unstructured – is presenting major challenges for organizations to understand both risks as well as seizing opportunities to optimize revenue. StreamForce goes to the core of dealing with the increasingly complex world of events, across a landscape of distinct and disperse networks, cloud based applications, social media, mobile devices and applications. StreamForce goes a step further than traditional “after-the event” analysis, offering real-time actionable intelligence for risk analysts and decision makers, enabling quick reaction, and even prediction of threats and opportunities.”
StreamForce is the ideal tool for banks, financial institutions, telecommunication companies, government intelligence and defense agencies. Fast and powerful is what big data users need, but does StreamForce really stand behind its claims? Security threats are hard to detect for even the most tested security software. Can a data feather duster really do the trick to make the difference?
