Abstract

Abstract : In today's data-rich enterprises, information is currency. This makes the requirement to protect it against external security threats more acute than ever. Already, the exponential increase in sophisticated data breaches seen in recent years has prompted IT and security administrators to move from simply being aware of the most up-to-date security solutions to proactively building their own internal security policies. Increasingly, they are also deploying security information and event management (SIEM) tools to help mitigate threats.
