Exabeam CISO Tyler Farrar: Lessons I Learned From My Military Experience about How To Survive And Thrive During A Time Of Crisis

Managing your organization’s security alerts is a full-time job — whether you monitor only Network Security Devices (NSD), Endpoint, Identity, or (ideally) all of the above. Traditional Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) products may be exactly what is required for log management and the requirements of compliance and governance, but they are seldom optimized for threat detection and incident response — and require extensive tuning to build events of interest.

Enter Exabeam Fusion XDR. When combined with a SIEM solution such as Splunk, QRadar, or a data lake, you add threat analysis, entity (user, endpoint, server, etc.) behavior analysis, risk scoring, correlation, and built-in incident response and case handling. All of this is possible without having to rip and replace your SIEM.

Amplifying your SIEM with the addition of Exabeam Fusion XDR has many benefits — here are the top 5 quick wins.
