SIEM Capabilities

Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) systems provide comprehensive security monitoring and incident response capabilities. By collecting and analyzing security events from various sources, SIEM systems enable organizations to detect, investigate, and respond to security incidents in real-time.

Key Capabilities
