Splunk<\/h3>\n<p>Splunk pulls information from all aspects of a network, making it easier for SOC analysts to locate pertinent data and act quickly in on-site, cloud, and hybrid database environments (Splunk, 2022). When an anomalous event occurs that suggests a potential breach, SOC analysts will have easy and efficient access to database information so they can respond appropriately.<\/p>\n<h3>2. SolarWinds Security Event Manager<\/h3>\n<p>SolarWinds\u2019 Security Event Manager provides SOC analysts with a tool that improves security through advanced threat identification, forensic analysis, and automated incident responses (SolarWinds, 2019). In addition to offering an intuitive dashboard, the Security Event Manager integrates with many compliance reporting tools to aid businesses that must conform to HIPAA, PCI DSS, and other regulations.<\/p>\n<h3>3. LogRhythm<\/h3>\n<p>LogRhythm\u2019s SIEM platform offers a reliable way to improve an organization\u2019s security posture in light of challenges associated with the rise in remote work and cloud migration (LogRhythm, 2022). LogRhythm applies a zero-trust model while optimizing security infrastructures against emerging cybersecurity threats. LogRhythm provides additional training that helps all types of IT professionals use its features correctly.<\/p>\n<h3>4. Trellix Platform<\/h3>\n<p>The Trellix platform provides real-time visibility into system activity. The tool allows SOC analysts to see real-time system, network, application, and database activity and performance (Trellix, 2022). When fully integrated into a system, analysts can examine specific events to identify potential issues, from suspicious activity to slow speeds. Trellix users can also add content packs to customize the tool for relevant industry compliance regulations.<\/p>\n<h3>5. AlienVault OSSIM<\/h3>\n<p>AlienVault OSSIM is an open-source SIEM product by AT&amp;T designed to help security professionals in asset discovery, assessing vulnerabilities, intrusion detection, behavior monitoring, and SIEM event correlation (AT&amp;T Business, 2020).<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-de47360 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"de47360\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-no\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-e53b971\" data-id=\"e53b971\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b8e7430 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"b8e7430\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2>Defining SOC and SIEM<\/h2><p>A SOC is a centralized department within an organization or data center that consists of security analysts, who use a variety of processes, tools, and technologies to monitor and improve the organization\u2019s cybersecurity infrastructure (LogDNA, 2022).<\/p><p>&#8220;SIEM&#8221; refers to a specific management tool that SOC analysts and other cybersecurity professionals use. A SIEM platform typically includes a range of tools that aid SOC professionals, including:<\/p><ul><li>Forensic tools for investigating cyberattacks<\/li><li>Threat hunting features to locate vulnerabilities<\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/test1.eccouncil.org\/train-certify\/certified-threat-intelligence-analyst-ctia\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Threat intelligence<\/a>\u00a0and security analytics features<\/li><li>Advanced analytics visualization<\/li><\/ul><p>The core difference is that SOC refers to an entire centralized department, including SOC analysts and their processes and tools, whereas SIEM refers to specific software used by a SOC analyst or team. SIEM platforms facilitate a comprehensive approach to cybersecurity by giving SOCs the ability to monitor data in real time and establish security policies that improve overall network safety.<\/p><p>To avoid confusion, it&#8217;s worth noting that the abbreviation \u201cSOC\u201d has two meanings. In addition to the definition of SOC outlined above, <a href=\"https:\/\/test1.eccouncil.org\/cybersecurity-exchange\/security-operation-center\/what-is-soc-security-operations-center\/\">SOC security<\/a> can also refer to System and Organization Controls, a set of compliance standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (Imperva, 2022). SOC auditing helps ensure that all institutions using financial data employ methods to keep that data secure.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-4211087 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"4211087\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-no\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-d05d52f\" data-id=\"d05d52f\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-641717e elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"641717e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Secure Your Future as a SOC Analyst with EC-Council<\/p><p>EC-Council excels at preparing<a href=\"https:\/\/test1.eccouncil.org\/train-certify\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> cyber security professionals\u00a0<\/a>at all experience levels to become certified SOC analysts through the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/test1.eccouncil.org\/train-certify\/certified-soc-analyst-csa\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Certified SOC Analyst (CSA) program<\/a>.
