Security Monitoring - Part 3 - Next-Gen SIEM

Legacy security information and event management (SIEM) solutions were designed when the corporate IT environment was a closed system, and the Security focused on protecting the company perimeter. Security teams needed to understand when and where security threats were happening.

With a legacy SIEM, security analysts need to spend much time manually switching between solutions and screens while hunting down threats, manually remediating breaches, and writing and tweaking the manual rules to find threats. Meanwhile, the supply of cybersecurity experts needed to understand this complex landscape has not been able to keep pace with growing demand.

Compared to a legacy SIEM, which struggles to meet today’s security challenges, a next-generation SIEM improves your security visibility, actionability, and posture, while reducing management and analyst burden.

Big Data Aggregation and Integration

  • Integration into an enterprise infrastructure via open architecture to cover cloud, on-premise and BYOD assets
  • It is built on a big data platform that can collect and aggregate massive data produced by security systems and network devices.

Threat Intelligence and Threat Hunting

  • Combines internal data with third-party threat intelligence feeds on threats and vulnerabilities.
  • Enables security staff to run queries on log and event data and freely explore data to uncover threats proactively. Once a threat is discovered, it automatically pulls in relevant evidence for investigation.
    Correlation, Security Monitoring, Alerts and Incident Response Support
  • Links events and related data into security incidents, threats or forensic findings, analyze events and sends alerts to notify security staff of immediate issues.
  • Helps security teams identify and respond to security incidents automatically, bringing in all relevant data rapidly and providing decision support.

Advanced Analytics

  • Uses statistical models and machine learning to identify anomalies and detect advanced threats, detect unknown threats, detect lateral movements within a network, and enrich the context of security alerts to make it easier to investigate and detect elusive threats.

Search, Data Exploration and Dashboards /Reporting

  • Search vast amounts of security data without reviewing raw data and without data science expertise, actively explore data to discover patterns and hunt for threats, create and schedule reports on important data points.
  • Creates visualizations to let staff review event data, identify patterns and anomalies

Forensic Analysis


  • Enables log and event data exploration to discover details of a security incident, with the automated attachment of additional evidence organized in a situation timeline.

User and Entity Behaviour Analytics (UEBA)

  • UEBA can be hugely valuable to help organizations identity compromised accounts, as well as insider threats. It uses advanced machine learning and behavioural profiling techniques to identify anomalous activity such as account compromises and privilege abuse. As it is not using rules-based monitoring, UEBA is more effective at detecting anomalies over time.
  • SOAR is helping SIEM technology to become more intelligent, Big Data-driven and influencing the evolution of NextGen SIEMs is by helping to standardize incident analysis and response procedures
  • Gathers log data for standards like HIPAA, PCI/DSS, HITECH, SOX and GDPR and generates compliance reports. Helps to meet compliance and security regulations requirements, for example, by alerting about security conditions for protected data.

Retention

  1. The SIEM can store long-term historical data that is useful for compliance and forensic investigations. Built-in data lake technology facilitates unlimited, low cost, long-term storage.

EMBEDDING CYBER SECURITY

Aristiun helps in embedding security using the power of automation, AI and the latest methodologies

Get in Touch

Many organizations, large and small, and even the highly regulated enterprises are moving to the cloud. It is not a matter of if anymore, but rather when and how. In this transformation of adopting the cloud as a key platform for your organization it is essential to ensure that security becomes an enabler, not the obstacle. Security of data is a prominent reason why CIOs are not adopting the cloud. It is Aristiun’s approach to help you navigate and make security as the enabler of this journey. Our approach considers a holistic view of the challenges paired with this journey and balances out the user stories such that growth of your cloud adoption happens optimally.

Cloud Security Strategy

Help set-up your enterprise cloud security strategy. This strategy will be fully aligned with your IT strategy, but will also help you stream-line all security developments with your cloud initiatives. Not only with cloud security strategy define the right governance, but will also stipulate the operating model for security in the cloud.

Platform Security Architecture

When designing your cloud platform, how to define the needed security capabilities that integrate with your on-going cloud consumption? You might already have security capabilities, but should they be / go cloud native? We will help you with transitioning from current security capability state to the desired state.

Regulation and Compliance

Cloud technologies and cloud security is not often well-understood by oversight and governing bodies. This results in requesting unrealistic evidencing and processes to secure the cloud and can slow-down your cloud adoption. In this area we focus on making regulation and compliance part of the cloud adoption process and ensure effective alignment with compliance and regulatory bodies.
