Fortinet's FortiAnalyzer and FortiSIEM are both SIEM systems for security management, detection and analysis of cybersecurity incidents that integrate with other Fortinet products. Both offer network monitoring capabilities, though with different depth and focus and help organizations meet compliance requirements by providing detailed reports and logs.
But FortiAnalyzer (available since 2004) is mainly a log management and analysis tool, focusing on centralized logging, reporting and alert management. It's better suited for organizations looking for centralized log aggregation, analysis and reporting across multiple Fortinet devices. Even its interface is more devoted for log management and report generation and focused primarily on network admins.
FortiSIEM (2016) is a successor of AccelOps, that was acquired by Fortinet. It's a full-featured SIEM software, focusing on broader security event management, including real-time threat detection and response. FortiSIEM improves visibility across diverse IT infrastructure, including devices from multiple vendors. Unlike FortiAnalyzer, FortiSIEM supports a wide range of third-party products. It also includes advanced analytics and correlation capabilities that results in in-depth threat detection and response.
