Varonis Wins Silver at 13th Annual Info Security Product Guide Global Excellence Awards
February 16 2017 - 4:05PM
Varonis Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ:VRNS), a leading provider of software
solutions that protect data from insider threats and cyberattacks,
has today announced that its DatAlert solution has been awarded
Silver by the Info Security Product Guide's 2017 Global Excellence
Awards® in the User Behavior Analytics (UBA) category.
The award comes shortly after Varonis launched the latest
iteration of its data security platform in version 6.3.150, which
includes updates to DatAlert’s existing UBA threat detection
capabilities to quickly flag suspicious behavior and investigate
threats. The Varonis data security platform analyzes and profiles
user roles, file system and email activity, permissions, file
content and directory services information in order to detect
compromised accounts, rogue administrators, disgruntled employees
and users that have been compromised by ransomware or external
attackers.
"One of the problems that has stayed the same in our evolving
cybersecurity environment is undetected insider access and abuse.
UBA provides the necessary tools to properly protect and monitor
sensitive data in files and emails from unusual activity that may
indicate an attack is underway,” said David Gibson, Chief Marketing
Officer at Varonis. “DatAlert’s use of UBA-based threat models
against file system and email telemetry is instrumental in allowing
our customers to identify, prioritize and mitigate unusual and
threatening activity, including zero-day variants of ransomware,
compromised accounts, rogue administrators and misbehaving
employees."
More than 40 industry voices from around the world acted as
judges for the Info Security awards, and their average scores
determined the 2017 Global Excellence Awards Finalists and Winners.
Winners were announced during the awards dinner and presentation on
February 13, 2017, in San Francisco attended by the finalists,
judges and industry peers.
