Is it SIEM or seim?

A quick answer to a common question about security information and event management (SIEM).

The correct term is SIEM, which stands for security information and event management. "SEIM" is a common misspelling. A SIEM centralizes logs and events so teams can detect threats, and AI-native security operations center (SOC) platforms are now replacing many legacy SIEMs as the hub for detection and investigation.
