Renee has a large number of workstations and servers in her corporate environment and wants to more effectively monitor logs for them. What solution from the following list is best suited to identifying and alerting on issues in a large-scale environment?

Answer Options

A

Centralized logging

B

A SIEM

C

An IPS

D

An EDR

Correct Answer: B

Explanation

A security information and event management tool (SIEM) is designed to ingest and analyze large volumes of logs and then alert on issues and events. Centralized logging is useful but needs additional tools to alert on issues. An IPS is used to detect and potentially respond to network-based attacks, not to gather and analyze logs, and EDR tools are useful for monitoring endpoints, not for large-scale log ingestion and analysis.
