Learn about the benefits of Exabeam Smart Timelines for detecting and investigating security incidents—a vital tool for threat hunting, investigation, and remediation by security operations centers (SOCs).
Security operation center (SOC) managers know their security analysts spend an enormous amount of time sifting through information and alerts across a variety of non-integrated tools, trying to find the data they need to investigate potential threats. Read how Exabeam Threat Intelligence Service directly integrates with your current SIEM for the most up-to-date threat intelligence so your analysts can identify and mitigate new and emerging attacks at no added cost or impact to the customer.
When I was preparing to write this blog, I spent time reviewing the 2018 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Security Information and Event Management report, then reviewed my analysis from the 2017 report. A few trends emerged. After reading this year’s report, my conclusions on the SIEM landscape are as follows:
– Threat management is paramount for growth
– Analytics is key
– SIEMs must be end-to-end
That was then—next-gen SIEM is now. Modern SIEMs can now apply new solutions to your security domain that weren’t available with legacy SIEMs. But many SIEMs claim to be “next-generation,” and yet don’t have what’s needed to solve the problems most security teams face today. What features are needed to be a next-gen SIEM?
Exabeam Threat Intelligence Services (TIS) with SIEM: While SIEMs are central for SOC cybersecurity, SIEMs are often not enough. With the growing sophistication of organized, modern cyber attackers and their highly-targeted techniques, organizations can be left with serious vulnerabilities using SIEM alone.
2017 Gartner Magic Quadrant SIEM: What is evident to me from the 2017 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) is after a four-year drought from 2013 through 2016, innovation has finally returned to the SIEM market.
Modern SIEMs provide out of the box correlation rules and sophisticated models to surface a broad range of abnormal behavior and events. Understand how to customize these resources, while adding your own rules and models for your organization’s unique cybersecurity requirements.
Security log management solutions can evaluate the many cybersecurity vendors that process log data. However, a security data lake built on top of an elastic stack (ELK) lowers the total cost of ownership and provides analysts with greater visibility and search capabilities to better detect cyber threats.
