In terms of managing workflows and cybersecurity exposure, LogRhythm NextGen SIEM is very efficient and is a good tool to use for locating and auditing any sort of activity that goes on in the network. It's very helpful for tracking and finding, even down to a granular level or up to events. It's definitely been helpful with blind spots, especially in terms of vulnerabilities that aren't picked up by the scanners that we have. There were multiple instances where we've had brute force and various types of attacks that were quickly escalated to us via alarms and that were easily read and acted on.

LogRhythm helped us to identify a lot of blind spots. Originally, we didn't have a SIEM tool. We had auditors say that this is something that we should be doing. My management team asked me to go and find a product, and I researched a bunch of them and found LogRhythm. It really opened our eyes to see how much traffic we have, whether it's other IP addresses that are scanning us or external users trying to hit certain ports that could then get closed. It helped us tighten down some of those firewall rules that may have been left open unintentionally through other changes. It helped us a lot early on to identify who was trying to communicate with us or, essentially, who was trying to attack us.
