SIEM provides a single view of an organization's security by connecting and analyzing data from various security tools and systems. It gives security teams visibility into network activity, vulnerabilities, configurations, and risks. This allows SIEM to be the foundation for risk management, security operations centers, and governance, risk, and compliance programs. By providing security intelligence in real-time from logs, events, and other data sources, SIEM helps organizations detect threats, contain incidents, and ensure ongoing compliance.
