Symantec Network Forensics: Security Analytics

Sophisticated, targeted attacks can take weeks, months or longer to discover and resolve. Incident response teams need tools that quickly uncover the full source and scope of an attack to reduce time-to-resolution, mitigate ongoing risk and further fortify the network. Like a security camera for the network, Blue Coat Security Analytics delivers full network security visibility, advanced network forensics, anomaly detection and real-time content inspection for all network activity.

Pros

    Darktrace / EMAIL

    Darktrace / EMAIL secures email and collaboration by training exclusively on each organization’s own communication patterns, not shared threat intelligence. It builds a Unique Behavioral Profile for every user – spanning email, identity, DLP, and human risk – to catch novel phishing, business email compromise, and account takeover that signature-based tools miss by design. It’s recognized as a Leader in Gartner’s Magic Quadrant and in the 2025 Voice of the Customer for Email Security Platforms.
