Splunk Named a Leader in Gartner SIEM Magic Quadrant for the Fifth Straight Year

Gartner has published the 2017 Magic Quadrant for Security Information and Event Management and Splunk was named a leader for the fifth straight year.

In the report, Gartner placed Splunk in the Leaders quadrant and recognized Splunk for its ability to execute and completeness of vision.

Ongoing Customer Success With Analytics-Driven Security

Our analytics-driven SIEM, Splunk Enterprise Security—in addition to being used by customers for security monitoring, advanced threat detection, forensics and incident response—addresses a wide range of security analytics use cases for organizations of all sizes and maturity.

Customers use Splunk Enterprise Security to replace their legacy SIEM, as their first SIEM and to solve use cases that their legacy security tools fail to do.

Another trend is the rapid adoption of Splunk Enterprise Security with our SaaS offer, Splunk Cloud, to improve threat identification, risk mitigation, reduce remediation cycle times and demonstrate regulatory compliance.

In addition to adopting Splunk Enterprise Security as their SIEM, thousands of customers are using our analytics-driven security portfolio, which includes Splunk® Enterprise (Splunk Cloud), Splunk Enterprise Security, Splunk User Behavior Analytics, Splunk Stream and more than 600 Splunk and partner apps!
