Yes! SIEM (Security Information and Event Manangement) helps with compliance reporting and real-time incident response by centralizing, analyzing, and reporting data about your organization's security events. Other security software has a narrow scope of detection and remediation. SIEM is the most comprehensive type of defense for your network.

Security Information & Event Management, or SIEM (pronounced "sim," with a silent "e"), is gaining a reputation outside of the cybersecurity community. Advertisements on YouTube and Hulu tout the product’s incomparable security and real-time effectiveness, but they struggle to convey what a SIEM really does. Technical security lingo tends to make non-technical people tune out, and trying to simplify the concept diminishes its value.
Here’s a quick one for all of the administrators and security practitioners. There’s no shortage of third-party programs designed to do remote desktop management and support. And while sure, many of them are secure, the ones we find in use most often are not. The reason being, they tend to be low or no cost solutions. Now, I’m not one to say that security should always be spendy, but let’s be honest, a lot of the time tools are an investment that management is not always willing to invest in. More often then not when we hit a business that is using VNC as their de facto remote management and support tool, the reason behind it is; “Well, it’s free, and we can shadow and control other machines with it for support calls.”

You’re sitting on your couch at home, it’s 8:00 on a Saturday night and one of your interns emails you about a new security vulnerability he just heard about on the latest and greatest podcast. You know that this new vulnerability is going to be the first thing to come up during the morning water cooler talk Monday morning. It’s time for you, the great server admin, to take flight and protect your kin!
