IBM QRadar SIEM Security Information Event Management Enterprise Product Overview

IBM QRadar SIEM Security Information Event Management and AI platform for Enterprise is an All-In-One solution for vulnerability and risk management, cybersecurity, threat hunting, security incident response and forensics analysis utilizes machine learning technology to automate manual tasks. QRadar SIEM Security Enterprise Edition is available as an on premise appliance or software node. IBM QRadar SIEM security can detect user and network behavior anomalies, uncover advanced threats, and remove false positives in real-time using integrated security AI, machine learning and behavior analytics when searching event log and network flow data from thousands of devices, endpoints, and applications that are distributed throughout your network or cloud, accelerating incident analysis and remediation. QRadar can ingest event logs from any third part application, device, system or any other endpoint source, including nonconforming SYSLOG event log types such as IBM i, iSeries and AS400.

QRadar SIEM Security helps administrators and analysts quickly and accurately detect and prioritize cybersecurity and internal security threats across the enterprise, and provide intelligent insights that enable security analysts to confidently respond to risks and breaches. QRadar delivers a centralized view of all aspects of security, analyzes event logs and network flow data from every device, system, database, application and security defense tools distributed throughout your network or in the cloud, while correlating this information with security AI, machine learning and behavior analytics which automates and accelerates incident analysis and remediation. QRadar is able to analyze network, endpoint, asset, user, vulnerability and threat data in real-time and accurately detect known and unknown threats that human threat hunters miss or would take hours or days to complete.

Compared to other SIEM solutions, QRadar uses machine learning, cybersecurity AI and behavior analytics technologies to automate many security analyst’s tasks, such as threat hunting, vulnerability scanning, risk analysis, alerts, incident response and conducting forensics of an identified offense. QRadar SIEM turns all the accumulated event logs, network activity logs and scans into security intelligence that can detect and prevent both security threats using security AI from a vast amount of industry expert sources. QRadar is able to successfully parse and correlate event logs from more vendors than any other solution on the market, enabling out of the box pre-defined searches, alerts and reports for quick and simple implementation.

QRadar SIEM Security All-In-One solutions includes the following:

• Web Console (unlimited users)
• Event Log Collector (sources can be on premise, remote or in the cloud)
• Network Flow Collector (sources can be on premise or remote)
• Event Log Processor
• Vulnerability Scanner (up to 256 included, supports customer provided scanners)
• Network Flow Processor (Level 1 to 5 PCAP, Level 7 packet capture is add-on)
• Cybersecurity AI Threat Intelligence Integration
• Behavior Analytics
• Access to 100’s of Security Apps for use with QRadar at no extra charge
• Predefined Rules, Alerts, Responses, Reports and Dashboards for over 450 vendor specific products

The QRadar SIEM has very flexible options for growth and scaling. There are many All-In-One appliances available from small to large deployment options. The Enterprise Edition is for large deployments which have between 50,000-600,000 events per second and 100,000-1,200,000 network traffic flows per minute. All QRadar appliances can be expanded upon by purchasing a larger license code which can convert an appliance to support higher volumes or into a dedicated purpose module appliance. For instance, an All-In-One appliance can be converted into a dedicated console, log collector, data expansion node, processor, manager, etc. Alternatively, customers may choose to use or add a VM with QRadar software running where the installation has a mix of both appliances and VMs.

QRadar Enterprise Edition, 5737-H81 Package 1 includes:

• 50,000 Events per Second (EPS)
• 600,000 Flows per Minute (FPM)
• Two data store connection entitlements
• Advanced asset management database
• Five high availability licenses
• Unlimited software installs for data nodes and collectors

QRadar Enterprise Edition, 5737-H81 Package 2 includes:

• 100,000 Events per Second (EPS)
• 1,200,000 Flows per Minute (FPM)
• Four data store connection renewals
• Asset management database
• Ten high availability licenses
• Unlimited software installs for data nodes and collectors

The QRadar Security Intelligence Platform in a quick and simple to deploy security AI and analytics solution that helps organizations filter through the noise to gain real-time intelligence of true risks and threats on the network or cloud from the lakes of collected network, asset, cloud and user data, and applying a combination of machine learning, advanced analytics and external cybersecurity AI to identify threats, anomalies, risks and attacks. The entire QRadar SIEM Security Intelligence Platform is fully integrated, enabling customers to start small and painlessly scale up or down as requirements change. QRadar has houndreds of validated out-of-the-box integrations and preconfigured rules customers can use upon installation, which makes implementation fast and learning simple.
