SIEM FAQ  

A SIEM (Security Incident & Event Management) system is the focal point of an organization’s threat detection and response capability, often led by their Security Operations Center (SOC). A SIEM collects, aggregates, and analyzes security relevant machine or log data from across an enterprise and from their cloud service providers. It normalizes the various data sources into a standard format and applies context to this data to enable automated alerting, and to provide security experts with the ability to rapidly detect, prioritize, and neutralize cyber threats hitting the organization.
