SIEM has been a pivotal technology in managing cyber risks for over 15 years, with enterprises heavily investing in these solutions. Despite this, many users express dissatisfaction due to the complexity of system configuration, high alert volumes, and slow detection. Proactive Validation offers a solution, enhancing SIEM efficacy through continuous threat simulation and automated testing. By identifying detection gaps and providing real-time mitigation, it boosts ROI and benefits stakeholders like CIOs, CISOs, and SOC managers.

Security Operations Centres (SOCs) are essential for monitoring and responding to cyber security threats. Despite advancements in SIEM technology since its introduction in 2005, SOCs still face challenges.  Many SOC teams are small, with only 2–10 staff members, and staffing shortages, lack of automation, and limited visibility remain major barriers. To add to these problems the rise of cloud infrastructure, has further complicated cyber security management, expanding the attack surface and adding new issues to address.
