Description
Summary:Security Operations Centers (SOCs) play a vital role in protecting organizations from cyber threats. Supported by skilled Security Analysts, they are the first line of defense, monitoring and responding to incidents. The Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) system is a critical tool for managing log data efficiently. This research focuses on optimizing log data aggregation within a SOC's SIEM framework. By exploring various log aggregation techniques, we aim to enhance the performance of data collectors, leading to quicker response times and improved security. This research contributes to a more robust defense against the ever-changing landscape of cyber threats. It empowers organizations to face evolving challenges with confidence and resilience. © 2023 IEEE.
