Key Tools for Security Analytics
• Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS)
• Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) Systems
• Network Traffic Analysis Tools
• Data Visualization and Analysis Tools
Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS)
IDS are vital for proactive threat detection by monitoring and analyzing network traffic. They identify and respond
to suspicious activities and potential security breaches.

Real-time Monitoring
IDS provide real-time visibility into network activity to detect and respond to potential intrusions.
Security Information and Event Management
(SIEM) Systems
SIEM systems offer comprehensive security monitoring and threat management. They integrate security
information and event management to provide detailed insights into security incidents.

Log Collection and Analysis Incident Response


SIEM systems aggregate and analyze log data They enable rapid incident response by correlating
from various sources to identify security events. security events and providing actionable alerts.
Network Traffic Analysis Tools
These tools monitor network traffic to identify anomalies and potential security threats. They provide insights into
network behavior and facilitate proactive security measures.
