LogRhythm

Security information and event management (SIEM) is an approach to security management. The underlying principles of every SIEM system is to aggregate relevant data from multiple sources, identify deviations from the norm and take appropriate action. For example, when a potential issue is detected, a SIEM might log additional information, generate an alert and instruct other security controls to stop an activity’s progress.

 

At the most basic level, a SIEM system can be rules-based or employ a statistical correlation engine to establish relationships between event log entries. Advanced SIEMs have evolved to include user and entity behaviour analytics (UEBA) and security orchestration and automated response (SOAR).

Today, most SIEM systems work by deploying multiple collection agents in a hierarchical manner to gather security-related events from end-user devices, servers, network equipment, as well as security systems like firewalls, antivirus or intrusion prevention systems. The collectors forward events to a centralised management console where security analysts sift through the noise, connecting the dots and prioritising security incidents.

Traditional SIEM vs Next-Generation SIEM

Traditional SIEM

Focuses on collecting only exception-based security data to prioritize which “events” are more important than others

Relies on heavy schema management and user-provided processing rules that create substantial administrative requirements

Does little to assist with alarm triaging and security orchestration, creating alarm fatigue and insecurity in security operation effectiveness

Lacks automation to help security teams simplify workflow by removing steps

Fails to keep up with the trends and needs of security

Next-Generation SIEM

Performs broad-based collection and identifies threats with corroboration across one or more security-related activities or integrations

Takes a holistic approach with minimal tuning with each product release, lowering the administrative burden

Reduces the mean time to detect (MTTD) and mean time to respond (MTTR) to threats by using scenario- and behavioral-based analytics to surface only credential threats requiring minimal tuning

Improves your team’s collaboration and effectiveness through automation and defined workflows

Tracks MTTD and MTTR and strengthens your team’s value to your business

Combines user and entity behavior analytics (UEBA), network traffic and behavior analytics (NTBA) and security orchestration, automation, and response (SOAR) in a single end-to-end solution
