The struggle to effectively manage high volumes of security alerts and the complexities associated with traditional SIEMs are driving the demand for a new approach to effectively address challenges in the SOC through cloud-native SIEMs combined with security automation capabilities.

"Today's security operations teams are faced with constant threats of security breaches that can lead to severe fallout including losing customers, diminished brand reputation and reduced revenue. To effectively minimize risk and bridge the gap, many companies rely on automated solutions that provide real-time analysis of security alerts," said Diane Hagglund, principal for Dimensional Research.

Although automated security alert processing can help to mitigate this issue, it is still a work in progress for most security teams.

Security alert volumes create problems for security operations 70% have more than doubled the volume of security alerts in the past five years.

"Enterprises are arguably dealing with more data today than ever before, and the pain security operations teams are feeling is significant. There's never been a more important time to ensure IT security operations are up to par," said Greg Martin, general manager for the security business unit at Sumo Logic.
