Find out how removing blindspots in data can save users millions of dollars by reading our report: Find threats faster: Log more and spend less. SIEM systems offer an all-in-one security solution, but with increasing data volumes from cloud systems and microservices, the total cost of ownership of a SIEM is going up. As pressures mount on security teams to do more with less, teams are finding the scalability and cost-savings they need in log management solutions.

At Illuminate 2020, Kashif Iqbal, Head of Corporate Technology and Cyber Security at SEGA Europe, shared their data security challenges and how they currently leverage Sumo Logic for their security needs. Kashif spoke about the four main benefits their security team have experienced since switching to Sumo Logic.

Cybersecurity is increasingly becoming a topic for legislators, especially for the public sector, critical infrastructure, healthcare, education, the financial and insurance sectors. In the US, in addition to several federal laws (HIPAA, HITECH, GLBA, SOX, FISMA, CISA), there are many state-level laws that impose some level of cybersecurity requirement (we have excluded the ones regarding election security in particular, as that’s a separate topic of discussion)

Threat intelligence has been a very important asset to cybersecurity- knowing in advance some properties of malicious actors is key for preventing security incidents. Most typically these properties are IP addresses, domains, emails and file hashes, and being able to compare them to what’s happening in your infrastructure allows for quick response and prevention.

Now, you can ship ModSecurity logs to Logz.io to automatically surface high-priority attacks identified by ModSecurity. Logz.io will automatically parse those logs to project a greater bird’s-eye-view of your security situation within dedicated dashboards. ModSecurity is a prolific web application firewall (WAF) popularly used to help secure web servers. It supports Apache HTTP, IIS, and NGINX. It can deploy either as a proxy server or within a web server itself.

At Sumo Logic Illuminate 2020, The Energy Authority’s IT Director for Service Delivery and Support Scott Follick spoke about the TEA, how they do things, what they have learned in the process of searching for a SIEM solution, and why they chose Sumo.

LogSentinel’s vision is to provide a security monitoring solution to any organization that needs it and thus reduce their risk of security breaches. That vision requires many innovations and here we’re sharing our high-level roadmap for the next 2 years. Each part of LogSentinel SIEM roadmap is accompanied with a detailed list of stories in our backlog so that can be easily brought to market.

During Sumo Logic’s Illuminate user conference, Heath Hendrickson, senior security architect at the Clorox company, and Gary Conner, senior threat protection lead, presented how they are leveraging Sumo Logic across security operations, threat hunting, IT operations, and more.

It's not uncommon for organizations to encounter hundreds of security incidents on a daily basis—from the trivial poking and prodding of script kiddies to nefarious activities that constitute the inner workings of advanced persistent threats (APTs). Transforming this volume of data into actionable information is impossible without the assistance of security intelligence, specifically, the analytic capabilities of security information and event management (SIEM) tools.

2020 is coming to a close and technology has evolved rapidly to make way for changing market conditions. Cloud computing, Artificial Intelligence (AI), automation, and the Internet of Things (IoT) are evolving technologies that create unparalleled opportunities for companies to unlock new value. When technology advances, so does the landscape of cyber threats that companies have to navigate.
