SolarWinds Security Event Manager checks a few different boxes: 1. Consolidated events from a huge variety of log sources. 2. A good presentation layer for #1. 3. Applies to more than a few GRC obligations. 4. And does 1-3 at an incredibly reasonable price.
Set-and-Forget with as needed functionality

We use SEM on a daily basis in our environment as per our built-out rules. We are notified of certain security events as they happen. Aside from that, we access SEM to run queries on an as-needed basis. With this we have a monitor running in the background keeping an eye on the events we want to monitor.

We have a deployment of SolarWinds SEM that monitors our Windows and Linux servers currently for login attempts across the whole organization. This allows us to see any possible vulnerabilities in real-time.

SolarWinds SEM is currently being used to aggregate all our event logs for our secure on-premises systems into one place for auditing and security purposes. It allows for easier review of security logs and allows for alerting to be created for certain events avoiding a regular manual review of these events.
Solarwinds - great product with a few small flaws.

SolarWinds has been implemented across our network as a systems management platform for server, applications and high value workstations. I assisted it's implementation with the systems that I administer across the region. It allows us to track the health of critical services and to quickly identify and address problems as they occur.
