- Exabeam New-Scale SIEM
Best for: Teams wanting behavior analytics out of the box
Exabeam is here because it can sit on top of an existing SIEM as well as replace one, so you can add its analytics without a full rip and replace. It fits mid-market and enterprise SOCs mid-way through a SIEM change. Exabeam is owned by Thoma Bravo, so ask about the product roadmap under that owner.

- Varonis DSPM
Best for: Teams needing to see who can reach sensitive data
It earns its place on the access side of data security, since the graph answers who can reach a file, not only where the file sits. It runs in a hybrid model from SMB to enterprise, which suits estates with large on-premises file stores. Proofpoint has agreed to buy Varonis, so ask how licensing and the roadmap will change once the deal closes.
