- 4. The purpose ofSIEM has evolved The original purchase driver behind SIEMs were – Satisfying compliance requirements more easily ▪ Collecting and retaining logs with less operational overhead ▪ Creating compliance reports more easily – Troubleshooting operational problems ▪ Determining root cause of failures Making IDS work better was often a driver too – The security team was deluged with IDS alerts – Many of the IDS rules were crude and fired too often © Copyright 2012 EMC Corporation. All rights reserved. 4
- 5. Why hasn’t SIEMlived up to expectations? Things have become more complex – IT environments have expanded – Hackers have become more sophisticated – IDS has become less and less relevant SIEMs response has been to add more log sources – More diversity of sources (Security Device, OS, Application etc) – Greater volume of sources as the number of critical systems has expanded But this has not solved the problem – SIEM has not been able to scale to the volume required – Its impractical to create correlation rules to detect every complex threat – Many threats no longer even have a footprint in the logs © Copyright 2012 EMC Corporation. All rights reserved. 5
- 6. The result fororganizations? Honeymoon period for customers post implementation – Compliance reports run more smoothly – Security teams get at least *some* visibility into activity Disillusionment follows for many pretty soon after – As team matures they start to try extract more value from the data – At this point, performance and correlation limitations come to the fore © Copyright 2012 EMC Corporation. All rights reserved. 6
- 7. Today’s tools needto adapt Today’s tools need to be able to detect and investigate – Lateral movement of threats as they gain foothold – Covert characteristics of attack tools, techniques & procedures – Exfiltration or sabotage of critical data Today’s tools need to be able to scale – To collect and store the volume and diversity of data required – To provide analytic tools to support security work streams – Time to respond is critical in a breach situations – and SIEM often falls short © Copyright 2012 EMC Corporation.
