What Is SIEM and How Does It Enhance Threat Detection?

Although security information and event management (SIEM) has been around for more than a decade, the solution continues to evolve. But too many enterprises still don’t know which security use cases SIEM can take on, how it can capture and leverage data — structured and unstructured, internal and external — or how to effectively implement a SIEM solution.

That’s unfortunate, because the threat environment isn’t standing still, both in terms of attack types and volume.
Defenders need a SIEM solution to detect threats in the extended environment, artificial intelligence (AI) to identify connections behind suspicious activity, and automated processes to rapidly shut down attacks.

SIEM is a combination of security information management (SIM) and security event management (SEM) that helps organizations detect threats via fine-grained, real-time visibility into on-premises and cloud-based activity.

Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) – A Detailed Explanation
May 29, 2020
https://gbhackers.com/security-information-and-event-management-siem-a-detailed-explanation/

SIEM software products and services combine security information management (SIM) and security event management (SEM). They provide real-time analysis of security alerts generated by network hardware and applications.
Vendors sell SIEM as software, as appliances or as managed services; these products are also used to log security data and generate reports for compliance purposes.

Although the industry has settled on the term ‘SIEM’ as the catch-all term for this type of security software, it evolved from several different (but complementary) technologies that came before it.
How does SIEM Works?
You may have noticed the word “Co-Relation” Yes, for the question How the SIEM works, the one-stop answer is a co-relation. But not that alone of course. [...]

SIEM used to always be sold as a one-stop-shop solution to monitoring and alerting, yet over the past several years we have seen much development in tooling for adjacent or new requirements that the more traditional SIEM tools either do not have or are looking to incorporate:
1. High fidelity monitoring
2. Deception technologies
3. Incident response handling, incident repsonse orchestration and automation
3. Advance security analytics (beyond use case based monitoring..)

Lies my vendor told me: sorting through the deceptions and misconceptions in SIEM
June 21, 2021
https://www.scmagazine.com/security...gh-the-deceptions-and-misconceptions-in-siem/

Allie Mellen, an analyst at Forrester, former researcher at MIT and Boston University and all-around cybersecurity practitioner, has been laser-focused on trends in the security analytics and tooling markets.
In a recent blog she tackles the growing evolution of security information and event management systems over the past decade and calls out a number of outdated or dishonest criticisms that are regularly lobbed at the technology today.

SC Media caught up with Mellen to learn more about the way SIEMs are mischaracterized by rival marketers, the increasing convergence of security analytics tooling and why automation needs are poised to loom large over the market in the next decade.
