Mitigate Threats With Security Monitoring
How Splunk helps with this use case
Splunk Cloud Platform and Splunk Enterprise Security centralize and retain all relevant security data from on-premises, hybrid, and multi-cloud environments. This eliminates visibility gaps and provides a comprehensive view across all data sources, powering security operations programs with a unified data foundation.
With Splunk software, security teams gain real-time insights into their attack surface, enabling faster detection and response to security threats. Splunk Security Essentials helps operationalize security use cases effectively, ensuring timely and accurate alerts for proactive threat management.
Finally, the ability of Splunk software to bridge data and operational silos strengthens an organization's overall security posture. By providing a holistic view and real-time monitoring, Splunk helps organizations progress through stages of security preparedness, becoming more resilient against attacks and adverse events.
