You can’t protect what you can’t see. SIEM / XDR are the solution that come into play to help you in the visibility of your network, endpoint, cloud. No matter what you use for your business. As long as it’s connected to the internet you have visibility.
A SIEM solution detects incidents that otherwise can go unnoticed. This technology analyses the log entries to detect indicators of malicious activity. Moreover, since it gathers events from all sources across the network, the system can reconstruct the attack timeline to help determine its nature and impact.
SIEM technologies bring in threat intelligence feeds in addition to traditional log data, and there are multiple SIEM products that have security analytics capabilities that look at network behaviour as well as user behaviour to give more intelligence around whether an activity indicates malicious activity.
With AI and machine learning we can do inference and pattern-based monitoring and alerting, but the real opportunity is the predictive restoration
If a company gets hacked, no CIO wants to have the board ask what happened and say, ‘Damn if I know.’ They want to say, ‘We’re going through log data to find out what happened.’”
At the same time, though, many companies now are moving beyond that and are increasingly using the technology for detection and near real-time response Now the game is how fast it can detect and remediate.
