SIEM Benefits and Features: What You Need to Know | CyberNcrypt
SIEM, or Security Incident and Event Management System, is a security system that collects and analyses data from many systems (such as logs and events) to identify odd activity or possible cyberattacks. SIEM systems may also be used to identify environmental vulnerabilities before malicious actors exploit them.
In this blog, we are going to discuss the major features and advantages of the SIEM solution
Features of SIEM
- Realtime Endpoint Security
- Visualization and Alerting
- Incident Response and Security Alerts
- Compliance Management and Reporting
- Machine Learning and Threat Intelligence
Advantages of SIEM
Visualization and Alerting – Capture logs from a variety of sources and generate visualizations that provide fast insight into the infrastructure’s current state. Additionally, we may establish warnings that will be conveyed to us through various channels when a certain danger is recognized.
Streamline compliance reporting – A single Security Incident and Event Management System server get log data from several hosts and may provide a single report addressing all pertinent security events reported by these hosts.
Preventing potential security breaches – By correlating events across hosts, Security Incident and Event Management systems provide improved detection capabilities. By collecting events from hosts throughout the company, a SIEM system is able to detect attacks with distinct components on multiple hosts and then rebuild the attack’s event chain to evaluate its nature and success.
Improve the efficiency of incident handling activities – Security Incident and Event Management (SIEM) solutions significantly boost the efficiency of incident management, which results in significant time and resource savings for event handlers.
Detecting Advanced and Unknown Threats – Organizations must be able to depend on security solutions that can identify and react to both known and new security threats, given the rate at which the cybersecurity environment evolves. SIEM systems may effectively protect against current security breaches by using threat intelligence feeds and AI technologies.
