We see lots of SIEM, SEM and the like, regulators calling for IDS/IPS on the outside, but what is the real value of just knowing attackers are knocking, when you can know that without an IDS, its simple, they are.  Unless you correlate to an event inside the firewall what real value do you get?   My preference is something like an Aristotle Insight which actually tracks activity and what gets done on the inside of the network, detect misue, abuse of acceptable use policy, fraud and problem tracking. Much better use of my limited funds and fully supports "Marrying Monitoring with IAM"!! [email protected]

Re: Best Monitoring Solutions
Hello. I agree with the comments on SIEM and IAM.  There are solutions today in the NGFW vendor community and the SIEM communityto help with this.  Addressing "Privileged Users" to IP, matching on network and tracking elevated use.  They base line behaviors of the Active Directory or Unix accounts, and alarm based on thresholds and patterns of Privileged Users.  Not perfect, but its an important vector for monitoring.

The 10 Most Impactful Types of Vulnerabilities for Enterprises Today
Managing system vulnerabilities is one of the old est - and most frustrating - security challenges that enterprise defenders face. Every software application and hardware device ships with intrinsic flaws - flaws that, if critical enough, attackers can exploit from anywhere in the world. It's crucial that defenders take stock of what areas of the tech stack have the most emerging, and critical, vulnerabilities they must manage. It's not just zero day vulnerabilities. Consider that CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) catalog lists vulnerabilitlies in widely used applications that are "actively exploited," and most of them are flaws that were discovered several years ago and have been fixed. There are also emerging vulnerabilities in 5G networks, cloud infrastructure, Edge applications, and firmwares to consider.
