An important tool for detecting cybersecurity attacks

Security Analytics solutions are an effective means for combating cyber threats. They enable companies to detect potential security incidents at an early stage from the log data of their IT infrastructure. The basis of this are big data platforms that can collect, normalise and process large data volumes. The results are available on dashboards for further analysis.

This white paper explains how Security Analytics works and the benefits which modern solutions offer. You will learn more about the challenges of rollout and find important criteria for choosing the appropriate solution. The Swisscom Security Monitoring Use Case Framework (case study) can help you with development and implementation.
