Organization should use tools that support both manual and automated searches, including criteria-based searches. The tool should be able to automatically collate data from different sources to more easily determine whether an incident is genuine, as well as its scope and nature.
These operations and processes can be implemented with SIEM (Security information and event management). SIEM solutions use analytics tools, technology and algorithms (e.g., newer SIEM solutions employ applied machine learning) to help detect unknown threats and abnormalities in the security-relevant data. Also SIEM solutions allow organizations to modify already existing (which usually come pre-configured) and add criteria-based alerts to match known threats. These things will help detect threats earlier.
