7 Minute Security - A podcast by Brian Johnson - Fridays

Today we're continuing our series called Desperately Seeking a Super SIEM for SMBs - this time with a focus on a new contender in our bake-off: Perch Security! It might help you to go back and take in part 1 and part 2, but today we're focusing on the first experience I had chatting with the sales/technical folks at Perch. TLDL: I really liked a lot of things I was hearing and seeing. Pros (perceived) include: Simple pricing model Easy to use dashboard Cool "marketplace" of integrations you can add to your instance and start getting alerts for Nice API integration that seemed pretty simple to use - and that covers a lot of different cloud products and services Ticket dashboard looked straightfoward to use and interpret Can quickly add IPs/subnets that you don't want to monitor, if appropriate
