SIEM Foundational Build

Overview

This service will take you on a journey to having a robust, scalable, strategically operated SIEM where you can clearly evidence what data is in the SIEM, why it is there, the security coverage it gives, and the cost associated. ​

Starting with your security and compliance requirements, data, users, processes and existing tools we will design and build out your threat detection posture moving you from fragmented detection to structured detection, through to risk-driven visibility. This service is relevant to new or existing SIEM users with either an external or internal SOC.

Who is it for?

• Security teams early in their Splunk SIEM deployment, looking to improve both their resiliency, and the capability within the SIEM platform.​
• Organisations with the goal of modernising a legacy detection approach, bringing in line with modern detection practices.​
• Customers with low detection coverage or unstructured use cases striving to apply uniformity and improved coverage to their SIEM.​
• Customers in need of alignment against compliance standards/regulations such as NIST, ISO, PCI, CIS, etc​.
• Enterprises preparing to scale up, expand, or optimise their detection strategy.​
• Customers who are struggling to control the sprawl of their Splunk deployment.
