ArcSight Express: the security expert in a box

ArcSight announced its new ArcSight Express family of compliance and security monitoring appliances targeted at the needs of mid-size organizations with limited resources. They includes the correlation rules, dashboards, and reports that matter in the protection of mid-size organizations.

ArcSight Express eliminates the need for in-house security experts to build custom threat detection rules, dashboards, and reports as is the norm for customers of other security information and event management (SIEM) products focused on this market segment.

ArcSight Express is tailored to organizations with little in-house security expertise and looking for increased compliance and security at affordable prices and reduced administrative requirements. Many businesses are unable to staff a dedicated security operations center. In these firms, IT personnel may have multiple roles, and cannot afford to dedicate their time to monitoring the network. With ArcSight Express, security incident detection and notification is automated and IT personnel are able to focus on responding to important security incidents.

The ArcSight Express family is available now and pricing starts at $45,000.
