Are you still struggling with overwhelming alert floods, false-positive spikes, and missed incidents because your event filtering and correlation rules are outdated or poorly tuned? Every missed detection or unnecessary alarm puts your organisation at risk of failed audits, regulatory fines, and costly security breaches.
