SIEM Best Practices

SIEM, or Security Information and Event Management, helps organizations monitor and analyze security data in real-time. Best practices include: 1. **Define Clear Goals**: Know what you want to monitor. 2. **Regularly Update**: Keep software and rules current to catch the latest threats. 3. **Centralize Data**: Collect logs from all systems for a complete view. 4. **Continuous Monitoring**: Always watch for suspicious activity. 5. **Incident Response Plans**: Prepare specific steps to take when a threat is detected. 6. **Training and Awareness**: Ensure staff understand security and their roles. These practices help strengthen overall security posture.
