“Out-of-the-box SIEM Integration"
Jun 19, 2019
I really liked the integration of SecureSphere WAF with most of the leading Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) systems such as Splunk, ArcSight, RSA enVision and others. SecureSphere WAF events in any SIEM are automatically indexed and are easily searchable for fast incident response. SecureSphere WAF transfers events as syslog messages in Common Event Format (CEF) and JSON format.
