Security Information and Event Management (SIEM)

Summary

SIEM refers to a comprehensive solution that aggregates and analyzes security data from across an organization’s IT infrastructure, aiding in real-time threat detection and response.

Detailed Description

Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) systems collect, monitor, and analyze security data from various sources in an organization, such as servers, network devices, domain controllers, and more. In real-time, SIEM solutions analyze this data using algorithms and correlation rules to detect anomalies indicating potential security incidents or breaches. They also provide a centralized platform for organizations to manage security alerts, investigate incidents, and ensure compliance with regulations through reporting and auditing capabilities.
