From my Gartner Blog - Demonstrating Value of Security Analytics

An interesting aspect of covering Threat Monitoring and Detection is the chance to be exposed to every new vendor in this field, what currently means a lot of “analytics” stuff. In the same way as it is nice to see all the new stuff being created in this space, it is also painful trying to understand the value these new products are supposed to provide. This is happening partially due to the old issue of excessive marketing and buzzword abuse, but also from something related to the techniques being used by some of these products: Machine Learning, advances statistics and data science stuff. These techniques and methods can certainly provide value on threat detecting, but it’s very hard not only for clients (and analysts!) to understand but also for the vendors to explain how their products are able to do that.
