| |
|
|
 |
|
|
| Summary: |
The correlation engine in ArcSight ESM helps University of Maryland University Collage focus on top-priority security issues, and find network issues they were not yet aware of. |
Business
Challenge: |
UMUC serves 140,000 students in a primarily online distance-learning environment. The IT security team is tasked with ensuring the uptime of the infrastructure responsible for the e-learning environment. UMUC also has a small security staff which was buried in manually reviewing thousands of security logs. |
| Solution: |
ArcSight ESM helps UMUC’s staff prioritize security issues and review security logs in an orderly, prioritized way.
“Immediately upon installing ArcSight ESM for a pilot test we not only saw the potential of having a correlation engine help us focus on the most pressing security issues, but we gained visibility into issues we didn’t even know existed such as high utilization rates which point to suspicious network activity,” said Alex Gales, Internetwork engineering manager, UMUC. |
| Benefits: |
ArcSight ESM helps prioritize security incidents and allows UMUC to re-focus the team on core network design and operations tasks to support the University’s growth and expansion. |
