A. Organizational Need
Security Information Event Management can be a solution to implement in TechFite. Because
the amount of traffic that passes through the two firewalls creating enormous amounts of real-
time log data and is challenging to scan logs manually. Furthermore, TechFite plans to install
honey pots, and those will store massive amounts of log data. SIEM is a solution that
aggregates historical log data, real-time active security events, analyze log behavior,
vulnerabilities, and malware activities. Moreover, TechFite will need a solution for additional
storage of their current log data and scale with future growth storage. According to the article
, lOMoARcPSD|5967629
in Dataversity, “What is SIEM, and why is it so important?” Gilad David Mayan explains why a
SEIM should be used on a company to report suspicious activities is the amount of log activity
this creates, and it is almost impossible to handle it manually. This implementation must be
compliant and need to be maintained by the solution in place with The Federal Information
Security Management- FISMA and the National Institute of Standards and Technology-NIST
B. Proposing a Solution for Emerging Technology
To have the requirements for TechFite’s business demands. I will recommend using Splunk
Enterprise service on the Google Cloud platform as
an Emerging Technology Solution. Splunk offers scalable service featuring SIEM appliance.
Splunk supports a full range of Information security operations, real-time visibility,
Automatization and Orchestration, incident response, User monitoring, Threat Intelligence,
Advanced Analytics, Advance threat detection. TechFite will have the ability to analyze in real-
time, monitor, and threshold conditions twenty-four hours a day. They will be able to
customize dashboards for viewing these scenarios. According to the Slunk website- Splunk
Connected Capabilities puts Splunk's control in the user’s hands, accurately. Through Mobile
Smart devices, Smart Television, and Splunk Enhanced Reality, Splunk Allows everyone in your
company to view graphical information and see it on the go. (www.splunk.com)
C. Adoption Process
This step is to assess the solution's benefits: the cost and the risk that TechFite will
encounter and the current operations. Data-to Everything Pricing, Splunk's flexible
