FAQs
What is SIEM?
SIEM stands for security incident and event management system, and it’s designed to give you better visibility of what’s happening across your IT estate. It does this by gathering data from sources like networks and anti-virus software, and analysing that data for suspicious activity. It also allows you to log security incidents and help you stay compliant with data regulations.
SOC v SIEM: what’s the difference?
SOC stands for security operations centre. It’s where security staff monitor data (like alerts and traffic) and make decisions on how to respond to possible threats. SIEM, on the other hand, is software that helps to analyse and identify potential threats on your network. So SIEM is a tool to help SOCs do their job more effectively. Without SIEM, security teams would have to manually gather data from various sources – which would take a long time.
How does SIEM help with compliance?
To comply with data protection law, organisations need to organise, store and protect data in a way that prevents it from being compromised. Because SIEM has visibility across the entire organisation, it’s an excellent tool for documenting and providing a record of all data events.
