SIEM and SOAR Validation

The Challenge: Validating Your SIEM and SOAR

Security analysts are tasked with staying ahead of the growing quantity and variety of emerging threats.At the cornerstone of the security operations center (SOC) is a security information and event management (SIEM) system or a security orchestration automation and response (SOAR) system that enables security analysts to effectively investigate incidents while avoiding wasting time on false positives. Both SIEMs and SOARs must be continuously validated and refined to ensure that the underlying technologies that enable them are accurately detecting malicious behaviors.

The Solution

With Cymulate Extended Security Posture Management, companies can validate and optimize SIEM and SOAR performance. Cymulate facilitates continuous purple and red teaming by launching attack scenarios and campaigns that operationalize the MITRE ATT&CK® framework.

Through API–based integrations, the attacks are correlated with SIEM and SOAR findings, enabling analysts to easily ascertain if the relevant events are being displayed by the SIEM and SOAR or if an alert was properly triggered. An organization’s custom queries can be imported into Cymulate to validate their detection of malicious behaviors and provided Sigma rules enable analysts to create new rules or fine-tune existing ones based on their indicators of behavior.
