Why do we need a SIEM?

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

Organizations need a central place to collect, retain, and search security data for threat detection and compliance requirements such as SOC 2, HIPAA, and PCI. That need is lasting, but it no longer requires a legacy security information and event management (SIEM) tool, since AI-native platforms with tiered data lakes now deliver it.
