Your bird’s-eye view across your IT estate
The security perimeter of today’s workplace extends far beyond the office, and organisations require a security solution that’s able to keep pace with flexible working patterns and provide a centralised view across a decentralised digital estate.
That’s where Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) solutions come into play. Historically, SIEMs were complicated, expensive and difficult to manage. However, today’s cloud based SIEMs, like Microsoft Sentinel, are far more accessible to businesses.
