Re: What are the Pros and Con - Features In Solutions
Kshaurette, thanks for your comment. One of the interesting providers that I'm keeping an eye on is ObserveIT, take a look there. But I do expect to see more firms like this (and those you mentioned) using their data gathering capacities to shine a light on user behavior, especially the "Insider Threat" posed not just by the Snowden's of the world, but also by those with far more innocent intentions.

What are the Pros and Con - Features In Solutions
This is a very good article and i believe higher end analytics of behavior based activity tracking coudl become the 2016 and beyond trend.  Solutions with the right features become the best way to catch unusual (anamolous) activity like performed by a Snowden that could indicate behavior not normal as compared to what goes on daily, weekly, monthly based on a lot of possible comparisons.  The larger the repository of User Bahavior to perform analytics against the great the potential to detect activity that stands out as unusual.  What are some of hte most popular tools, I'm aware of Aristotle Insight, and probably bigger vendor solutions like Arcsight, Qradar, but what are typicaly feature sets that these tools exhibit that make them an accepted practice?

The 10 Most Impactful Types of Vulnerabilities for Enterprises Today
Managing system vulnerabilities is one of the old est - and most frustrating - security challenges that enterprise defenders face. Every software application and hardware device ships with intrinsic flaws - flaws that, if critical enough, attackers can exploit from anywhere in the world. It's crucial that defenders take stock of what areas of the tech stack have the most emerging, and critical, vulnerabilities they must manage. It's not just zero day vulnerabilities. Consider that CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) catalog lists vulnerabilitlies in widely used applications that are "actively exploited," and most of them are flaws that were discovered several years ago and have been fixed. There are also emerging vulnerabilities in 5G networks, cloud infrastructure, Edge applications, and firmwares to consider.
