NetIQ Aegis Adapter for Security Manager
Real-time security events require real-time responses. Insider attacks, customer data protection, critical host security and regulatory compliance demand that security information and event management (SIEM) solutions provide integrated and automated security capabilities.
NetIQ Aegis and NetIQ Security Manager enable you to model automated security processes to respond to events in real-time, without the need for unnecessary human intervention. By defining processes that respond to insider attacks, threats to customer data, or even unathorized changes to critical business systems, NetIQ Aegis enables NetIQ Security Manager users to operationalize security, reduce costs and improve event response time.
