Exam CISM Topic 2 Question 261 Discussion

The greatest value provided by a Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) system is facilitating the monitoring of risk occurrences. SIEM systems collect, analyze and alert on security-related data from various sources such as firewall logs, intrusion detection/prevention systems, and system logs. This allows organizations to identify security threats in real-time and respond quickly, helping to mitigate potential harm to their systems and data.
