Security Information Management
Leverage security information management (SIM) tools for powerful monitoring and detailed analysis
Monitor using strong security information management tools
SolarWinds Security Event Manager serves as a powerful security information management tool that is built to identify potential threats in current and historical logs. SEM monitors your centrally stored log file data for suspicious anomalies, including unauthorized modifications made to files or issues with user permissions and registry settings. SEM is designed to compare detected threats against an updated database of known threats, like bad IPs, so you’re working from up to date security information.
Paired with real-time activity
monitoring and an alert notification system that you can tailor to suit the needs of your team and organization, SEM provides key capabilities of SIM and security event management tools.
Quickly identify SIM cyber security threats
Security Event Manager provides powerful cyber
risk management tools to help you defend your network against potential threats. Admins can use custom event correlation tools to specify which incidents and data patterns should trigger automated responses. SEM can quickly perform a range of functions—it can block IP addresses, kill malicious applications, or lock out users—automatically. Minimizing your response time can reduce the impact of cyberattacks and give admins time to respond more thoroughly to the threat.
Use security information management to support compliance
Due to the increase in high-profile data breaches, more and more data security standards are becoming legal requirements. The SolarWinds security information management tool features comprehensive reporting that is both customizable and easy to use for identifying data trends and network behavior. A key component of security information management is utilizing historical log data to run forensics and assess performance. SEM is designed to make it easy to run reports on historical or current log data, as well as schedule automated reports to send to stakeholders. As a log management and IT compliance reporting
tool, SEM supports your efforts to comply with data security standards like HIPAA, PCI DSS, SOX, and more.

Security Information Management (SIM) is a series of processes through which data from computer event and activity logs is compiled, monitored, and analyzed. SIM refers specifically to the part of this process having to do with historical log analysis and reporting, while Security Event Management (SEM) refers to the real-time activities involved in gathering and analyzing logs. Together, these processes form a complete Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) solution.
