QuestionQ25

VerifiedSecurity Operations and Management

A manufacturing company is deploying a SIEM system and wants to improve both its security monitoring and regulatory compliance capabilities. During the planning phase, the team chooses an output-driven approach, beginning with use cases that address unauthorized access to production control systems. They configure data sources and alerts specific to this use case, ensuring that they receive actionable alerts without excessive false positives. After validating its success, they proceed to use cases related to supply chain disruptions and malware detection.

Which of the following best describes the primary advantage of using an output-driven approach in SIEM deployment?

Explanation

An output-driven SIEM approach starts with high-priority security outcomes and use cases, then collects and configures only the data needed to detect and investigate them. This reduces unnecessary log ingestion from systems that are not relevant to the prioritized use cases while supporting focused, actionable detections.
