SIEM solutions typically collect data from a variety of sources, including: Network devices, such as firewalls and switches Security devices, such as intrusion detection systems (IDS) and intrusion prevention systems (IPS) Servers Endpoint devices, such as laptops and desktops Applications Once data is collected, SIEM solutions aggregate it and analyze it for suspicious activity.
