SIEM, the modern tools of which have been in existence for about a dozen years, is an approach to security management that combines the SIM (security information management) and SEM (security event management) functions into one security management system. SIM collects, analyzes and reports on log data; SEM analyzes log and event data in real time to provide threat monitoring, event correlation and incident response. Due to its 24/7, real-time nature, SIEM is now a required technology for large enterprises.


Both SIM and SEM functions provide on-demand analysis of security alerts generated by applications and network hardware. Security providers that can combine these two functions are in the inside lane for new business.


Key features for enterprise SIEM include ingestion of data from multiple sources, interpretation of data, incorporation of threat intelligence feeds, alert correlation, analytics, profiling, automation and summation of potential threats.
