What is a Security Incident and Event Management Platform (SIEM)?
A Security Incident and Event Management (SIEM) platform is a technology that provides businesses with security incident detection, analytics and response capabilities. SIEM platforms combine security information and data generated by applications, network hardware, endpoints, servers, and more to provide full visibility and analysis of security alerts. Security analysts use the aggregated information in the SIEM to create rules to detect, analyze and respond to cyberthreats to the business.
