The Inefficiencies of Legacy Tools: Why SIEMs Alone Are Ineffective at Detecting Advanced Attacks

In today’s digital age, cyber attacks are becoming more frequent and sophisticated. So why are enterprise organizations still relying on legacy security information and event management (SIEM) technology to protect their networks?

SIEM technology has been around for decades, and while it was once an effective solution, it is no longer enough to keep up with the evolving threat landscape. Cyber criminals are constantly finding new ways to breach security systems, and traditional SIEM tools are simply not equipped to handle these advanced attacks.

  • SIEMs generate a high volume of alerts, many of which are false positives.
  • SIEMs require significant customization and ongoing maintenance.
  • SIEMs rely heavily on rule-based analysis, making them less effective at detecting unknown or advanced threats.
  • SIEMs may miss threats that are not captured in the data sources they are configured to monitor.


In order to effectively defend against modern cyber threats, enterprise organizations must evolve their security strategies. This means moving beyond legacy SIEM technology and incorporating more advanced tools and techniques into their defenses.

In this eBook, we will explore the dangers of relying solely on SIEM, and highlight the need for an AI-Driven Dynamic Threat Detection and Response Platform.
