AV + EDR versus aiSIEM Good Security is NOT Good Enough
                     AV + EDR versus aiSIEM: 
Good  Security is NOT Good 
Enough
With the adoption and proliferation of Internet of Things (IoT) 
and  cloud/virtualization trends are on the rise, cybercrime is 
developing  much faster. The threat surfaces have broaden 
significantly and  security teams have to defend against 
sophisticated cyber-attacks,  such as, Ransomware, 
Distributed Denial of Service (DDOS), Inside  threats, 
Vulnerability exploits, Advanced Persistent Threats (APTs),  
Email phishing, to list few. Even though the attack surface has 
 increased significantly but the security budget hasn’t 
especially for
      mid-to-smaller organizations.. So many enterprises have been  
confused by the vendor’ claim that fits their narrative, 
should we say, 
a self-fulfilling prophecy? In some cases, enterprises have 
been made  to believe that an Antivirus with Endpoint 
Detection and Response  (EDR) solutions is good to enough to 
combat the current and growing  security risks. This begs a 
question: Is this a viable strategy for  protecting enterprises 
from today’s growing number of sophisticated  cyber-threats?
The short answer is no. Even though, in some cases, 
organizations  have built their security posture with these 
tools, enterprises continue  to get breached and face 
malicious attacks causing data frauds on a  day-to-day basis. 
The truth is that this doesn’t do the job. Though  Security 
posture built around AV + EDR combo is a good start, it isn’t  
good enough to help protect organizations in this digital era.
Gartner defines EDR as tools that are primarily focused on 
detecting  and investigating suspicious activities (and traces 
of such) on  hosts/endpoints. An EDR is used to determine 
threats / breaches on  an endpoint device and responds to 
these threats with agents  installed on each endpoint to 
collect data from many  data  sources  and stores them in the 
central repository. Since data is relegated to  these endpoints, 
same alert reported by multiple end points resulting  in false 
positives and  additional work. Moreover, antivirus solutions  
do not offer the necessary protection to keep the enterprise 
network  and data secure. They lack the threat intelligence 
(no global context)  and prevention capabilities necessary to 
even recognize modern day  threats and breaches, much less 
remove them from the enterprise  network. In summary, 
endpoint security that includes EDR and  Antivirus, provides 
the capabilities necessary for maintaining the  digital 
perimeter but falls short to provide the comprehensive  
cybersecurity to the enterprises.
Seceon aiSIEM™ is developed ground up to deliver 
“Comprehensive  Cybersecurity for the Digital-Era”. It ingests raw 
streaming  data  –   logs from all devices, OS, Apps and 
Services in the ecosystem (on-  premise, cloud); Flows, such 
as, NetFlow, IPFIX, sFlow, jFlow from  network infrastructure,

platform provides comprehensive visibility of the enterprise’s 
 ecosystem to proactively detect threats/breaches, 
automatically  contains and eliminates the threats in real-
time by pushing the  policies on hygiene systems (like 
Firewalls, Email/Web Gateways,  Microsoft® Windows® 
Active Directory™ service, Network Access  Controllers, EDR, 
etc.), and continuous compliance to enhance an  
organization’s security posture and provides a zero-trust 
security in a  digital era, while lowering SOC operational cost 
by more than 80%.
