ManageEngine, a division of Zoho Corporation, is enhancing its cybersecurity efforts by focusing on artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML). The company is responding to the increasing demand for advanced security solutions by improving its Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) platform, Log360. This platform will allow organizations to monitor their security from a single console, making it easier to manage both on-premises and cloud networks. The company aims to develop customized solutions that meet the unique needs of its users while also increasing the productivity of security analysts.

In an interview, Ram Vaidyanathan, the Chief IT Security Evangelist at ManageEngine, highlighted the challenges faced by security leaders today. These include a shortage of skilled professionals, the rise of sophisticated AI-driven cyberattacks, and the need to communicate risks effectively to business leaders. To tackle these issues, ManageEngine is investing in AI technologies and developing tools that help security teams respond quickly to threats. The company is also committed to nurturing local talent in India to drive innovation in cybersecurity.

The role of Chief Information Security Officers (CISOs) has evolved significantly, shifting from a technical focus to a strategic business leadership role. CISOs are now responsible for assessing risks and ensuring that cybersecurity aligns with business goals. ManageEngine's strategy for innovation includes a strong emphasis on research and development, with plans to integrate advanced AI capabilities into their security solutions. This approach aims to enhance threat detection and response, ultimately helping organizations stay resilient against emerging cyber threats.
