SIEM

Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) refers to a comprehensive toolset used for real-time analysis of security alerts generated by applications, hardware, and other sources across a network. SIEM systems aggregate and analyze log and event data from multiple sources to provide a centralized view of security events and incidents. They use correlation rules and analytics to detect potential threats, vulnerabilities, and anomalous activities. By providing real-time monitoring, alerting, and reporting, SIEM solutions help organizations identify and respond to security incidents quickly, ensuring effective threat management and compliance with regulatory requirements.
