Split Log Ingestion for Scaled SIEM Deployments

Written By Lawrence Pingree
 

The Challenge

Today’s large scale SIEM installations sometimes require the ability to load balance, split log ingestion into multiple nodes to deal with the large volumes of logs needing comprehensive analysis. Products like Elastic Stack (ELK), Splunk, Archsight, Graylog and others often require specialized deployments and architectures to overcome scalability challenges.

Multi-SIEM Log Ingest with BrazenCloud

  1. Deploy BrazenCloud Agent near each log source.

  2. BrazenCloud Platform can easily distribute and mirror data in a hub-like fashion.

  3. Logs can be ingested by two or more SIEM nodes in tandem.

  4. Enable security teams or SOC Automation tools to perform more efficient hunt or SOC operations processes within your SIEM.

Threats evolve on a continuous basis, as do the workloads and systems they penetrate. In the not-so-distant past, we relied on traditional antivirus and perimeter firewalls to defend us and that was “good enough”. Today, that is no longer works…
