STRM Overview

Juniper Networks STRM is a network security management platform that provides 
situational awareness and compliance support to organizations that need to 
tighten security and improve policy monitoring with a modest investment in time 
and resources. STRM goes beyond traditional security information/event

missed

Log Management

: STRM responds to the 

right threats at the right time 

through effective analysis of log files. 

Compliance:

 STRM implements a compliance and reporting safety net with 

comprehensive event storage and reporting.
