Security Threat Response Manager (STRM)

Overview

Today's networks are complex, with a vast array of hardware and software handling millions of events daily in many networks. Juniper's Security Threat Response Manager (STRM) appliance family effectively analyzes threats in the midst of this avalanche of information. STRM offers simple deployment, fast implementation and improved security.

Juniper's STRM family enables:

• Threat Detection – Detection of events that would otherwise be missed by product or operational silos.
• Log Management – Enables response to the right threats at the right time through the effective management of millions of log files.
• Compliance – Implementation of a compliance and policy safety net with comprehensive event storage and reporting.
• IT Efficiency – Extracts IT value that is latent but lost from existing network and security investments.

Juniper's STRM family includes solutions to fit different network security needs. Products include:

STRM 500 – This all-in-one security solution plugs into a network, thus offers fast, easy deployment. An intuitive, Web-based user interface helps the STRM 500 get up and running in minutes. With its optimized hardware, the STRM 500 doesn't require expensive external storage, third-party databases or ongoing database administration. The STRM 500 is ideal for small, medium and large enterprises or departments that do not foresee the need to upgrade to higher events-per-second or flows-per-minute capacities.

STRM 2500 – This enterprise-class appliance delivers scalable network security management and is optimal for growing companies. The STRM 2500 includes on-board event collection, correlation and extensive reporting capabilities. The STRM 2500 is aimed at medium- to large-sized companies on up to large, globally deployed organizations. These companies will need additional flow and event monitoring capacity in the future.

Features and Benefits

The Juniper Networks Security Threat Response Manager (STRM) appliances deliver the following main features and benefits:

• Centralized command and control console – Integrated log management, security information and event management (SIEM), and network behavior analysis in a single console reduces security management solution acquisition costs and improves IT efficiency.
• Network, security, application & identity awareness – Converged management of network events, security events, network and application flow data, vulnerability data and identity information greatly improve the ability to meet IT security objectives
• Advanced threat and security incident detection – STRM's unique "offense" management significantly reduces false positives and detects threats that other security solutions miss.
• Compliance-driven reporting capabilities – STRM provides compliance-centric reporting that enables the delivery of IT best practices that support compliance initiatives.
• Scalable distributed log collection and archival – STRM's distributed appliance architecture scales to provide event and flow log management in any enterprise network
