c to an organization. “SIEM ROI” depends on several factors, including a user’s compliance and security obligations, the size and complexity of the IT environment and any current log management processes.There are hard and soft costs associated with SIEM. If you do not currently have a SIEM solution in place, you’ll incur costs like manual log review, manual report and audit preparation, fines (for noncompliance), and worst of all, increased risk exposure. If your SIEM solution is inadequate, you’ll spend too much time trying to make it do what you expected it to do, and keeping it from ceasing to collect, aka falling over.
