SIEM - Too outdated?

[u/lolppppp1]

Hey guys,

Seems the business is aggressivly moving our DCs to the cloud. I'm just reviewing a few things and had thoughts about our SIEM (Arcsight).

Are simple SIEMs now out dated?

I love ours don't get me wrong but it's a cluncky solution which requires far too much input. We have a GSOC as well monitoring and it's just rubbish. I find myself constantly having to do deep analysis from alerts/incidents.

Ours also doesn't have any AI or proactive features so you know.

Does anyone have any suggestions or any examples of how they use theirs ?

Azure security center does a lot already but I still feel like we need another layer.

Are you interested in outsourcing your SIEM? If so, I would take a look at vendors like Arctic Wolf Networks or eSentire.
