[Get a demo](https://www.sumologic.com/request-demo) What is Security Information and Event Management (SIEM)?+[SIEM](https://www.sumologic.com/glossary/siem) software combines the capabilities of security information management (SIM) and security event management (SEM) tools. SIM technology collects information from a log consisting of various data types. In contrast, SEM looks more closely at specific types of events. Together, you can collect, monitor and analyze security-related data from automatically generated computer logs while centralizing computer log data from multiple sources. This comprehensive security solution enables a formalized incident response process. Typical functions of a SIEM software tool include: - Collecting, analyzing and presenting security-related data - Real-time analysis of security alerts - Logging security data and generating reports - Identity and access management - Log auditing and review - Incident response and security operations [Learn more](https://www.sumologic.com/glossary/siem) How do SIEM tools work?+SIEM delivers superior incident response and enterprise security outcomes through several key capabilities, including: **Data collection** – SIEM tools aggregate event and system logs and security data from various sources and applications in one place. **Correlation** – SIEM tools use various correlation techniques to link bits of data with common attributes and help turn that data into actionable information for SecOps teams. **Alerting** – SIEM tools can be configured to automatically alert SecOps or IT teams when predefined signals or patterns are detected that might indicate a security event. **Data retention** – SIEM tools are designed to store large volumes of log data, ensuring that security teams can correlate data over time and enabling forensic investigations into threats or cyber-attacks that may have initially gone undetected. **Parsing, log normalization and categorization** – SIEM tools make it easier for organizations to parse through logs that might have been created weeks or even months ago. Parsing, log normalization and categorization are additional features of SIEM tools that make logs more searchable and help to enable forensic analysis, even with millions of log entries to sift through. What are some example use cases for SIEM?+Popular SIEM use cases include: **Compliance** – Streamline the compliance process to meet data security and privacy compliance regulations. For example, to comply with the PCI DSS, data security standards for merchants that collect credit card information from their customers, SIEM monitors network access and transaction logs within the database to verify that there has been no unauthorized access to customer data. **Incident response** – Increase the efficiency and timeliness of incident response activities. When a breach is detected, SecOps teams can use SIEM software to quickly identify how the attack breached enterprise security systems and what hosts or applications were affected by the breach. SIEM tools can even respond to these attacks through automated mechanisms. **Vulnerability management** – Proactively test your network and IT infrastructure to detect and address possible entry points for cyber attacks. SIEM software tools are an important data source for discovering new vulnerabilities, along with network vulnerability testing, staff reports and vendor announcements. **Threat intelligence** – Collaborate closely to reduce your vulnerability to advanced persistent threats (APTs) and zero-day threats. SIEM software tools provide a framework for collecting and analyzing log data that is generated within your application stack. With UEBA, you can proactively discover insider threats.
