Security Information and Event Management
The primary purpose of a SIEM system is to provide centralized visibility into an organization’s security posture by aggregating and correlating security events and logs. By analyzing these events, SIEM systems can detect and alert on security incidents, threats, and vulnerabilities. They can also provide real-time monitoring, threat intelligence, and compliance reporting.
Benefits
By implementing a SIEM system, organizations can improve their ability to detect and respond to security incidents, reduce the time to identify and contain threats, and enhance their overall security posture. It helps organizations gain better insights into their security events, proactively identify risks, and meet compliance requirements.
