AFFINITY MANAGED SERVICE FOR SECURITY INFORMATION AND EVENT MANAGEMENT
A managed service for security information and event management systems addressing regulatory and compliance issues as well as delivering improved security
In today’s threat environment, the network perimeter has vanished. With advanced persistent threats (APTs) and other sophisticated attacks on the rise, businesses need to be just as concerned with their internal network as the external environment.
Businesses therefore have to employ effective security information and event management (SIEM) solutions to remain ahead of emerging threats from groups such as WikiLeaks, LulzSec, Anonymous and others so that they can uncover issues through the continuous inspection and correlation of security log and event information from multiple sources including firewalls, servers, databases, applications, IDS and physical access logs. However IT departments spend more time maintaining SIEM systems than they do acting on the vast amounts of security log and event information being generated and in addition it is becoming more challenging for IT departments to hire and retain individuals with expertise to operate SIEM systems.
IT security service provider SecureData’s Affinity Managed Service for SIEM provides an efficient and compliant solution for the real-time monitoring, analysing and management of your SIEM system. Operating from our UK based Security Operations Centre (SOC), manned on a 24 x 7 x 365 basis, we can offer you technical support and maintenance services via AFFINITYMANAGED – together with our value added online service area - AFFINITYPORTAL – and our own real-time monitoring service developed in-house – AFFINITYSECURE.
