What is SIEM in Cybersecurity?

SIEM stands for Security Information and Event Management. It’s a combination of security information management and security event management used to monitor and analyze security threats in real time.

SIEM solutions collect log data from applications and consolidate it into a centralized platform. They then utlize this information to prevent future attacks and share information with the global cybersecurity community.

About Critical Insight

Critical Insight is the only cybersecurity-as-a-service provider that prepares, monitors and responds to cyber threats, going beyond SOC-as-a-service offerings typical of Managed Detection and Response (MDR) offerings.

With a focus on organizations that deliver critical services – hospitals, local governments, utilities, school systems, and more – we provide end-to-end support to those with limited security teams or budgets to handle threats proactively and as they occur.

Based in Bremerton and Seattle, Washington, Critical Insight is a venture-backed company founded by former CISOs in the public sector. We are committed to training new analysts and providing the most up-to-date cybersecurity protection.
