What is a SIEM system?
SIEM stands for Security Information and Event Management. A SIEM is a centralised system for monitoring a company's IT security and quickly detecting threats, e.g. from cyberattacks. Because in IT security, every second counts. If such a threat is recognised in real time by your SIEM system, you gain time to react quickly and prudently. A SIEM therefore provides a comprehensive overview of the security status of your company's IT infrastructure.
In order for your SIEM system to do what it is supposed to do - namely link security information and recognise potential threats at an early stage in order to automatically warn you about them - it must be specially configured for your company's requirements. You should get experts on board for this implementation phase. Especially in the initial phase of implementing a SIEM system, complex rules have to be set up and individual, manual analyses carried out.
The advantages of a SIEM solution
IT security is becoming increasingly important - because cyberattacks are becoming more and more frequent. Managed security services such as a SIEM will play an important role in every company in the future, as it
- increases IT security in the company when implemented correctly
- protects your sensitive data from theft and damage
- relieves your IT department.
