Recently, CISA and ACSC introduced guidelines focused on the effective procurement, implementation, and management of SIEM and SOAR platforms that enhance cybersecurity. These systems are critical for monitoring valuable organizational data, but many face challenges such as high costs and maintenance demands. Implementation is intensive and ongoing, necessitating internal expertise. With evolving cyber threats, especially from complexities in data management and infrastructure, organizations must ensure accurate alerts and be prepared for hidden costs associated with data handling, training, and performance testing.
Testing the performance of SIEM and SOAR systems is crucial for effective cybersecurity; implementing them internally can provide organizations more control during the process.
The implementation of SIEM and SOAR platforms is a continual process that requires significant expertise and planning—these are not 'set and forget' systems.
