SIEM isn't dead. It's reborn and finally worth using.
The question isn’t whether security information and event management (SIEM) is dead. The real question is whether the traditional model of SIEM still serves today’s defenders. Spoiler alert: it doesn’t. Born from compliance needs and static rules, first-generation SIEMs provided log collection and correlation but not context. They buried analysts in noise and left threat detection slow, brittle, and expensive. But that’s changing.
