QuestionQ74

VerifiedSecurity Operations and Management

A security team must configure a newly deployed SIEM system. Because resources are limited, it needs to prioritize monitoring scenarios that deliver the greatest security benefit. The team recognizes that an effective SIEM depends on clearly defined use cases tailored to the organization's environment. Given the changing threat landscape, it must carefully decide which use cases to implement first to maximize value and threat-detection capability.

Which factor should guide its selection of use cases?

Explanation

SIEM use cases must be grounded in available, reliable telemetry: detection rules and correlations cannot produce dependable results without the required data fields, coverage, and quality from connected sources. Prioritizing use cases supported by existing high-quality data enables useful detection while limiting gaps and false positives. Microsoft Sentinel documentation describes data connectors as the mechanism for ingesting security data and analytics as the capability used to reduce noise and detect threats.
