Security Command Center eTrust Security Management— Centralized Command and Control

Many security systems today collect data on security-related resources and issue alerts. Each system generates this information in a different way and in different formats, stores it in a different place and reports it to a different location. Compounded, this creates security information overload—the constant flood of security events and incidents from incompatible security technologies. In addition, this fragmented approach to security leads to a duplication of efforts, high overhead, weak security models and failed audits.

Security experts advocate being in command of the security infrastructure, not being controlled by it. For this reason, eTrust Security Command Center is an innovative solution that transforms security information into business security intelligence. Its centralized command and control capability improves administrator efficiencies and helps reduce costs while integration and automation improve effectiveness and enhance security. eTrust Security Command Center collects data on security events—from third-party security technologies— holistically working across both physical and IT environments. It then reduces and normalizes the data, turning it into intelligent, actionable information. This information is then processed and assessed against business resources stored in a centralized catalog.

Using advanced event-correlation capabilities, security events can be captured and analyzed and a response can be automatically initiated. Through intuitive visualization, security administrators can view, monitor and manage virtually any aspect of security within their tightly controlled scope—including identity, threats and access.
