Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) is a system designed to collect, analyze, and manage security data from various sources within an organization. The primary goal of SIEM is to provide a comprehensive view of the organization’s security status, identify potential threats, and conduct in-depth analyses to improve incident response capabilities.

SIEM collects and normalizes data from multiple sources, such as system logs, network data, applications, and more. It analyzes the data in real-time, searching for suspicious patterns or unusual activity, and correlates events to detect attacks or threats to the system. Upon detecting an anomaly, SIEM generates alerts and warnings for SOC analysts.
