The most important FAQ from the field of SIEM Consulting
The digitization of all branches of business is progressing inexorably. However, the range of IT security threats is increasing at the same rate. A SIEM (Security Information and Event Management) provides crucial added value for your company’s information security: It enables you to comprehensively collect security-relevant data, consolidate it in a centralized repository and automatically detect anomalies and rule violations based on previously defined use cases. Thus, by using a SIEM system, your IT security team will be able to respond faster to cyber threats of all kinds. This is because the time required to identify an acute threat, the Meantime to Detect, can be significantly reduced in this way. Especially in the case of critical attacks on your IT infrastructure, this represents a decisive advantage. In addition, you ensure the ability to analyze and preserve evidence with a SIEM, thereby ensuring compliance requirements and legal requirements are met, among other things.
Important: Before deciding on a SIEM solution, it is essential to define which functions are really needed in the company.
We have experience with all leading SIEM vendors and have worked closely with many of them for years.
Our selection of SIEM solutions includes:
- Microsoft Sentinel
- Elastic
- Splunk
- IBM QRadar
- MicroFocus Arcsight
- Exabeam
- LogRythm
- LogPoint
More and more companies want to increase their security with a SIEM – but this is difficult or even impossible, especially with small budgets or a lack of in-house IT security experts. SECUINFRA’s flexible, hybrid co-managed SIEM approach gives you the opportunity to implement your individual SIEM according to a modular principle. The modular structure makes it possible to decide individually on your own services and external support. If you lack resources, expertise or specialists for certain areas, these gaps can be filled with the help of our co-managed SIEM approach.
SIEM use cases must be selected and adapted to the respective company in such a way that they can cover as many threat scenarios as possible with as little effort as possible. As a leading IT security service provider, we have our own use case library with more than 200 use cases – and more are added every month. Developed by our cyber defense experts, this ensures maximum effectiveness of use cases with high efficiency for our customers. We implement use cases based on the
MITRE ATT&CK Framework
and tested many times, instead of just activating use cases from SIEM vendors. As another unique selling point, we also develop the necessary specifications for log policies, test routines and runbooks. The use of monetary and time resources is thus kept to a minimum.
With SECUINFRA’s flexible co-managed SIEM approach, any SIEM system and the required components can be installed and operated within the customer’s network. As the customer, you provide the operating system platform on which our team of experts installs, configures and operates the SIEM system via remote access. Alternatively, it is also possible that you operate the platform independently and are only supported by individual modules of SECUINFRA. With this hybrid offering, data protection is guaranteed at all times. Your data does not leave your company and access to it is exclusively from Germany.
In order for a SIEM to efficiently and effectively counter current and future cyber threats, different roles with different skills must be filled within the SIEM system. From log source monitoring to SIEM content development to incident response and threat hunting, the technology only works when all roles are perfectly filled. This is exactly where we come in with our hybrid, modular and flexible co-managed SIEM approach. approach: You decide individually which competencies you want to build up in-house and which services you want to purchase from us. In close cooperation, a first-class SIEM system is created – without hidden costs and dependencies. We ensure that all SIEM components and data remain with you at all times. We provide all our services 24/7 with German-speaking experts. In our company, not only the co-managed SIEM service is ISO 27001 certified, but the entire SECUINFRA company.
Individual SIEM planning
We plan your optimal SIEM together with you – according to your individual requirements and expectations.
SIEM Workshop
There are many points to consider when implementing a SIEM. Based on our experience since 2010 in implementing and operating SIEM, we offer a workshop. During the workshop, all points regarding your SIEM will be discussed in detail. After the workshop, you will have a clear picture of what to consider when implementing and operating your custom SIEM.
SIEM Consulting
SIEM is much more than a product. The implementation should be very well planned to avoid false expectations and later cost explosions. Our experience of more than 28,000 SIEM consulting days in over 150 projects enables us to provide you with optimal advice in this area. In doing so, we address your requirements and expectations and support you in developing a concept that forms the basis for the introduction and operation of a SIEM.
SIEM concept
Before implementation, all points regarding SIEM should be clarified and recorded in a concept. Together with you we create this concept. Here, you bring your expectations for your SIEM and we complement them with our years of experience in SIEM consulting and operations support. The concept serves as a basis for the introduction and subsequent operation of your SIEM and can also be used perfectly for a SIEM tender.
Comprehensive SIEM implementation
We work with you to holistically prepare the introduction of your SIEM to ensure smooth and efficient SIEM operations for your company right from the start.
Before you buy a SIEM product, you should at least consider the following: Goals and framework of your SIEM, SIEM use cases, event sources, audit log policies, EPS, GB/tag, retention, SIEM roles, SIEM operating models, SIEM processes, and works council involvement.
SECUINFRA supports you in all these and further points concerning SIEM.

SIEM product selection
Over the past few years, we have learned the advantages and disadvantages of all leading SIEM products. We are happy to put this knowledge at your disposal.
Set SIEM solution design
Based on the SIEM concept created in the planning phase, we create the ideal SIEM solution design for you.
Implement SIEM solution
Once the product is selected and the design is determined, we implement the SIEM solution into your infrastructure.
Introduce additional tools for detection
Standard event sources cannot capture all relevant events, the use of additional tools is recommended. We support you in the selection and implementation of these tools.
Connect event sources
A SIEM without events is like a sailboat without wind. We connect all necessary event sources to your SIEM. If these are not supported by default, we develop appropriate connectors.
Audit Log Policies
Only detected and logged events can be evaluated by a SIEM! We support you in defining the optimal audit log policies.
SIEM Use Cases
SIEM use cases are used to identify relevant incidents in the data masses of your SIEM. When creating SIEM use cases, we draw on years of experience and an extensive SIEM use case database.
Create SIEM Content Packages
SIEM use cases are used to identify relevant incidents. Using our SIEM content packages, these findings are clearly presented and prepared for further processing.
Interfaces to other tools
A SIEM should be at the center of your cyber defense strategy, with numerous interfaces to other tools such as ITSM, asset database or vulnerability scanner. We support you in integrating the SIEM into your IT management infrastructure.
Implement SIEM processes
A clear operating concept with coordinated processes is necessary for the operation of a SIEM. We support you in implementing the processes defined in the SIEM concept.
Introduce SIEM operational concept
We support you in implementing the defined SIEM operational concept. If you wish, we can also perform individual operational roles for you.
