SIEM (Security Incident and Event Management) tools were the de-facto enterprise security tool when they were introduced more than two decades ago, however they can be a challenge for organizations to deploy and manage. Threats such as ransomware have been on the rise—with all organizations as a potential target.
The network perimeter has changed drastically, workloads have moved to the Cloud, IoT devices connected to the network, and distributed employees have all increased complexity. Pair this evolution with the volume of security data organizations need ingest, and the increasing complexity and number of tools, analysts find themselves spending more time administrating their SIEM than responding to the deluge of alerts (often false positives) generated.
In this presentation we will describe why SIEM projects struggle and often fail, and what can be done to get more value from their existing SIEM, as well as other security investments.
