The latest News and Information on Security Incident and Event Management.
Everyone at Devo is proud of the way our cloud-native logging and security analytics platform empowers security and operations teams to maximize the value of all their data. We have recently received kudos from industry analysts and awards from several industry organizations.
Modern day Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) tooling enterprise security technology combine systems together for a comprehensive view of IT security. This can be tricky, so we’ve put together a simple SIEM tutorial to help you understand what a great SIEM provider will do for you. A SIEM’s responsibility is to collect, store, analyze, investigate and report on log and other data for incident response, forensics and regulatory compliance purposes.
Halloween is tomorrow, and do you know what that means? For starters, it means you can dance under the rare blue moon. A full moon visible for all time zones on Earth hasn’t happened since 1944, and won’t happen again until 2039. It also means you can don a costume and be anything you like. Kind of like a fraudster, that assumes a new persona every time there is a payment fraud attack.
While all cybersecurity professionals agree that log management is integral for robust proactive and reactive security, managing the enormous amount of data logs can be a challenge. While you might be tempted to collect all logs generated from your systems, software, network devices, and users, this “fear of missing out” on an important notification ultimately leads to so much noise that your security analysts and threat hunters cannot find the most important information.
Initially, Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) solutions were readily adopted because of their capability to provide actionable insights into the deep corners of an organization’s network. Legacy SIEM systems helped in understanding when and where security incidents are happening in real-time. Soon enough, these SIEM systems faced an avalanche of false positives, and they required a dedicated team to filter out irrelevant alerts.
