Every organization—no matter the size—has data, network, IP, and other information to protect. When implemented well, SIEM (security information and event management) is a great tool that can identify threats, protect your information and keep your business secure.
But there’s a catch: a SIEM requires constant effort to sustain, and must be tweaked and monitored by expert staff. Otherwise, the SIEM will produce a slew of false positives, overwhelm analysts, and miss actual threats, thereby exposing the business.
Download this white paper to discover why SIEM can be a bad choice for mid-market companies, including:
- Resources needed to manage a SIEM
- The complexity associated with deploying, administering and operating a SIEM
- The upfront cost of a SIEM—and hidden costs that appear later
- The paper also explores SIEM alternatives, which can provide superior protection with reduced effort and cost
