SIEM buyer's guide for the modern SOC

Key considerations when selecting your SIEM solution
The pace of change in businesses is accelerating, as reflected by dynamics like digitisation, work-from-anywhere models, and cloud-based services. So how do SOC teams adapt?

The impacts for security teams are profound, altering the attack surface, reducing the efficacy of traditional security approaches, and exacerbating the cyber skills gap.

What do these dynamics mean for risk — and how does that change security operations? This buyers' guide from Elastic helps you understand:

  • What security operations teams need.
  • Understanding your unique needs.
  • How to empower your team.
  • Your processes, attack surface and protection needs.
  • SIEM requirements checklist.
