SIEM Validation & Hardening

SERVICE DESCRIPTION

Enhance your SIEM platform performance with our unique SIEM Efficiency Validation and Hardening Service. We conduct thorough SIEM assessments to evaluate the effectiveness of your security event log structures and detection rules against advanced threats through comprehensive attack simulations. When gaps and inefficiencies are identified, our service not only validates SIEM detection rules but also provides targeted remediation suggestions and custom-developed detection rules tailored for your environment ensuring optimal SIEM efficiency.

WHY IS THIS SERVICE IMPORTANT?

Consecutive surveys on SIEM efficacy conducted by the SANS Institute reveal that SIEMs are the most preferred platforms for detecting security events. However, a significant proportion of SIEM users are dissatisfied due to either a large number of missed attacks or an unmanageable number of alerts.

The SIEM Efficiency Validation and Hardening Service helps address these issues. It builds a proactive, threat-centric log validation capability to eliminate any log enablement and flow issues. Additionally, it identifies missed detections and provides detection content to fix gaps.
