Description: A ‘Security Event’ refers to any observable occurrence in a system or network that is relevant to security. These events can include unauthorized access attempts, changes to critical system configurations, or the detection of malware. Identifying and analyzing these events is fundamental for protecting an organization’s information and technological infrastructure. Security events are logged and monitored by Security Operations Centers (SOCs), where Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) tools are used to correlate data and detect patterns that may indicate a threat. The ability to respond quickly to these events is crucial for mitigating risks and preventing security incidents that could compromise the integrity, confidentiality, and availability of data. In an increasingly digitized environment, effective security event management has become a priority for organizations, as the complexity of cyber threats continues to rise.
