Does your organization use SIEM or similar tools to continuously monitor log events for malicious and suspicious activity?

Explanation

Continuous monitoring of log events is essential for detecting security incidents in real-time. A Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) solution aggregates logs from various systems, correlates events, and alerts security teams to potential threats based on predefined rules or anomaly detection. This enables organizations to identify and respond to security incidents before they escalate into major breaches. Evidence could include screenshots of your SIEM dashboard showing active monitoring, documentation of implemented alert rules, or reports generated from your monitoring solution that demonstrate ongoing surveillance of security events.

Implementation Example

Use security information and event management (SIEM) or other tools to continuously monitor log events for known malicious and suspicious activity

ResponseHub is the product I wish I had when I was a CTO

Previously I was co-founder and CTO of Progression, a VC backed HR-tech startup used by some of the biggest names in tech.

As our sales grew, security questionnaires quickly became one of my biggest pain-points. They were confusing, hard to delegate and arrived like London busses - 3 at a time!

I'm building ResponseHub so that other teams don't have to go through this. Leave the security questionnaires to us so you can get back to closing deals, shipping product and building your team.
