\"SIEM<\/p>\n

SIEM solutions<\/a> occupy a contradictory place in the modern cybersecurity discussion. On the one hand, the cybersecurity paradigm is shifting from a preventative model\u2014one which favored endpoint security\u2014to a detection model which should favor SIEM\u2019s threat investigation capabilities. <\/span><\/p>\n

On the other hand, SIEM is one of the least understood subfields in cybersecurity overall. It has a reputation of being complicated, time and labor intensive, and expensive; many of those responsible for their enterprise\u2019s purchasing decisions don\u2019t understand what they need from SIEM. In fact, some research indicates that 1 in 5 American adults lack basic cybersecurity knowledge. <\/span><\/p>\n

Yet the need for SIEM solutions and subsequent SIEM success has never been higher. Advanced threats are exploiting the increasingly porous IT perimeters from cloud adoption\u2014penetrating preventative solutions. 60% of cyber attacks involve lateral movements. According to Carbon Black, half of all cyber attacks have built-in contingency components to thwart incident response attempts. Somewhere around 90% of digital retail login attempts are credential stuffing attacks. \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

SIEM success can provide the threat detection, data analytics, data forensics, and incident response capabilities necessary to survival in this new digital world. But how can your enterprise achieve SIEM success? <\/span><\/p>\n

We took a look at the \u201cSix Steps to SIEM Success<\/a>\u201d whitepaper from solution provider AlienVault. Here are just a few of the expert ideas they found: <\/span><\/p>\n

Know Your Enterprise\u2019s SIEM Use Case(s)<\/b><\/h3>\n

The first step to finding SIEM success involves understanding your enterprise\u2019s particular use-case or use-cases. No two products or solutions are identical, even though they may appear similar on the surface. Each might be better suited to different industries or different use-cases. <\/span><\/p>\n

SIEM uses-cases can include but are not limited to: <\/span><\/p>\n
