Overview
ArcSight is a leading provider of security and compliance management solutions that intelligently identify and mitigate business risk for enterprises, MSSPs and government agencies. Designed with the needs of highly complex, geographically dispersed and heterogeneous business and technology infrastructures in mind, ArcSight provides the industry's only vendor-neutral solution for intelligent identification, prioritization and network response to external security attacks, insider threats and compliance breaches.

Much like a "mission control center," ArcSight's award-winning ESM solution intelligently collects and distills millions of enterprise-wide events down to the most critical information necessary for organizations to make informed decisions to protect their businesses. It does this through an open platform which integrates hundreds of point/individual security and networking products to find risks that would otherwise go undetected, and inherently enhances the business value of point technology investments.

The resulting real time and historic view across heterogeneous infrastructures, augmented by ArcSight's complementary solutions for high performance log management - ArcSight Logger, network configuration management - ArcSight NCM and threat response management - ArcSight TRM, offers the industry's only complete solution suite with a closed-loop process for addressing both security and compliance requirements.

Products
ArcSight ESM
is a comprehensive enterprise security management solution. ArcSight ESM enables global customers to manage information risk and protect critical IT assets. Security organizations use ArcSight ESM to discover—in real-time—the most critical threats to their organization and to manage and report on regulatory compliance. Security event information is efficiently collected from security devices and other critical IT systems, and then correlated across these heterogeneous products to identify true threats.

Many companies are incorporating data from non-traditional sources as well, such as physical building security systems, to further assess their security posture and identify malicious insiders. Vulnerability and IT asset criticality information can be incorporated into ArcSight ESM to help prioritize the most critical incidents and issues to address. ArcSight ESM provides organizations with comprehensive, real-time, security situation monitoring, visualization, reporting, analysis and remediation capabilities.

ArcSight Logger is a turnkey appliance which can capture and analyze all enterprise log data while providing a compressed, cost-effective and self-managing log repository.

ArcSight PCI Logger is an all-in-one log collection, storage and analysis appliance for cost-effective automation of PCI audits and proactive protection of cardholder data.

ArcSight Solution Packages deliver best practices based on years of experience with ArcSight’s most demanding enterprise and government agencies combined with unique features supporting the requirements for each solution package category. ArcSight Solution Packages include:

ArcSight IdentityView is a specialized application designed to combine the monitoring and analysis capabilities of the ArcSight SIEM Platform with the user and role management capabilities of an identity management solution. ArcSight IdentityView integrates with leading identity management systems to pull user and role information based on the authoritative data within the IdM system.

ArcSight Threat Response Manager (TRM) allows you to pinpoint the exact location of any compromise on your network and respond immediately with specific, policy-based actions.

ArcSight Network Configuration Manager (NCM) offers the full range of network management capabilities, plus adds an intuitive front end that enables lower-level support staff to master the tool with unmatched simplicity and of ease of use.
