NetWitness has launched NetWitness Cloud SIEM, the newest addition to its powerful security information and event management solution suite. 

 This cloud offering delivers the same world-class capabilities as its customer-hosted version but in a simple subscription model, without the heavy IT lift typically required for on-premises deployments. 

Why Cloud SIEM Matters? 

SIEM logs form the backbone of every serious cyber-defense effort. They’re critical not just for detecting threats, but also for meeting compliance requirements. 

A large, centralized repository of log data ensures better visibility, faster threat detection, and more reliable regulatory reporting. 

In most organizations, SIEM tools are as essential as firewalls or intrusion prevention systems (IPS). Yet, managing them can stretch IT teams thinly. Traditional, server-based SIEM platforms demand: 

• Massive data storage capacity 

• Continuous hardware provisioning 

• Regular software patching and version upgrades 

• Ongoing IT support for maintenance 

This is where cloud-based SIEM changes the game. By moving SIEM infrastructure to the cloud, enterprises can reduce internal IT burden while maintaining full visibility and control. 

How NetWitness Cloud SIEM Solves the IT Challenge 

With IT teams under constant pressure, organizations are looking for ways to simplify without compromising performance. 

NetWitness Cloud SIEM delivers enterprise-grade detection, investigation, and compliance capabilities through a SIEM software model that is: 

• Fully managed and cloud hosted 

• Rapidly deployable with minimal IT involvement 

• Available as a single, usage-based subscription license 

In short, it offers all the advantages of cloud-based SIEM – flexibility, scalability, and simplified management, without losing the deep analytical power that security teams rely on. 

What Makes NetWitness Cloud SIEM Different? 

There are plenty of SIEM cloud vendors out there, but very few offer enterprise-level intelligence and precision. 

Most cloud offerings focus on convenience but sacrifice advanced functionality. NetWitness Cloud SIEM does both. 

It’s built on the same core NetWitness SIEM technology trusted by enterprises and governments worldwide for high-performance threat detection and compliance. 

Skilled analysts rely on it to process massive data volumes, perform rapid investigations, and deliver precise detection outcomes, capabilities many newer SIEM platforms still aspire to. 

Unlike generic cloud SIEM tools that function like basic search engines, NetWitness Cloud SIEM is battle-tested through years of real-world use. It’s a mature, optimized system that combines advanced analytics with refined workflows for real-time security operations. 

Scalable and Integrated Security 

NetWitness Cloud SIEM isn’t a standalone product, it’s part of the larger NetWitness Platform. That means it integrates seamlessly with other advanced modules such as NetWitness Detect AI for large-scale analytics and IoT visibility. 

By combining cloud scalability with analytics-driven insights, the platform provides a truly unified security information and event management solution that grows with your organization. 

Easy to Acquire, Easy to Deploy 

Getting started with NetWitness Cloud SIEM is simple. 

Each subscription includes: 

• Software, infrastructure, support, and upgrades in one package 

• Web-based setup that can be handled internally or through an authorized NetWitness partner 

• Automatic patches and updates managed by NetWitness 

Licenses are tiered based on the SIEM log retention volume, starting as low as 50 GB/day and scalable in 10 GB increments. Longer retention options are available as add-ons. 

This flexible structure ensures that even as your organization’s data footprint grows, your SIEM tools scale with it seamlessly. 

The Global Advantage of NetWitness Cloud SIEM
