The state of SIEM

The Security and Information Event Management (SIEM) market is undergoing transformation, fueled by continuously evolving IT infrastructure: cloud computing, mobility, virtualization, and other business drivers.

This white paper discusses capabilities that markedly distinguish the SIEM of today from previous iterations. Then it goes beyond SIEM as the industry understands it today, and discusses what should be the natural next evolutionary step of the SIEM market. Insights include:

	Essential capabilities of SIEM for today and tomorrow, including which orchestration, automation, analytics, and response capabilities to seek out
	Integration with other security tools can extend investigation capabilities, incident response, reporting, and more
	The importance of automatic, continuous threat intelligence updates to help you more quickly respond to threats
	How a Unified Security Management® (USM™) platform goes beyond simply collecting, correlating, and analyzing log data to serving as a central console from which teams can coordinate an integrated cyber defense posture
	Questions buyers should consider asking of their SIEM contenders
