Don’t view SIEM as a luxury dashboard. It’s the difference between catching trouble early and reading about it in the incident report later.
This guide lays out the essentials for anyone evaluating SIEM and focuses on outcomes: less noise, faster detection, cleaner audits, and a security program that scales.
