Cloudera inks new partnerships to deploy next-gen cybersecurity hub

Cloudera has entered into partnership with Arcadia Data, Centrify, and StreamSets to simplify the first use-case on the cybersecurity hub. Leveraging Cloudera Manager’s parcel deployment capabilities, chief information security officers (CISOs) can now access Cloudera’s cybersecurity solution based on Apache Spot (incubating), through an app store-like experience, making machine learning simple and accessible by removing the barrier of entry to data-driven insights for security operation centers. The new feature also provides easy access to associated ISV capabilities such as ingestion, visualization, and analytics.

Cloudera’s next-generation cybersecurity hub enables anomaly detection, behaviour analytics, and comprehensive access across all enterprise data using an open, scalable platform. With this app-like experience, Cloudera is enabling organizations to expedite security use-cases such as cyber vulnerability and events analytics.

Speaking on the same, Tom Reilly, Chief Executive Officer, Cloudera, says, “CISOs understand that today’s threats require investment in open, scalable, future proofed data platforms. At Cloud era, we want to remove as much of the friction as we can and make it easy for CISOs to deploy their first big data cyber use-cases. Together with our partners, Cloudera is providing CISOs with a point and click path to deploy and benefit from a next- generation cybersecurity data platform.”

Arcadia Data provides the visualization capabilities including pre-configured application screens that let security operations centers quickly analyze data that resides in Cloudera’s solution.

Speaking on the partnership, Priyank Patel, Co-Founder & Chief Product Officer, Arcadia Data, says, "CISOs need a faster way to detect and respond to cyber threats across diverse and ever-growing digital endpoints, networks, and users. Arcadia Enterprise was architected for big data analytics and provides the powerful visualizations to let security analysts quickly identify cyber threats, effectively perform forensic analysis, and hunt for the unknown. We are excited to collaborate with Cloudera to provide out-of-the-box visual analytics which illuminate the value of Apache Spot as a leading big data open-source cybersecurity solution."

Commenting on the partnership on behalf of Centrify, Bill Mann, Chief Product Officer, says, “According to Verizon, identity is the top attack vector for hackers and we have seen that compromised credentials for both IT and end-users have increasingly resulted in data breaches. Centrify provides a single comprehensive platform to secure each user’s access to applications and infrastructure through the power of identity services. Centrify is working with Cloudera to help Apache Spot incorporate identity information into the Open Data Model from Centrify Identity Services, ensuring that Apache Spot has the most comprehensive data sources for advanced analytics to prevent attacks.”

Another partners representative, Kirit Basu, Head of Products, StreamSets, said, “Our partnership and technical integrations with Cloudera and Apache Spot make it easy for our customers to deploy ingestion pipelines quickly and operate them continuously with real-time monitoring and alerts.”
