Overview
Atris SIEM Service helps banks and credit unions track user activity, monitor security events, and support audit readiness through a cloud-based Security Information and Event Management solution. Designed for regulated financial environments, Atris SIEM Service collects and analyzes log activity across multiple systems, then turns large volumes of technical data into clear alerts, reports, and actionable tickets.
Key features / capabilities
Atris SIEM Service is delivered from the cloud, reducing the need for major onsite hardware deployment.
How It Works
Log collection
Atris SIEM Service collects activity from systems across the institution’s technology environment. Sources may include:
- Windows event logs

When activity requires attention, Atris SIEM Service can generate alerts and tickets for review.
This gives IT administrators, security officers, and compliance personnel a clearer process for investigation and follow-up.

FAQ
How is SIEM different from basic log storage?
Basic log storage keeps records. SIEM analyzes activity, correlates events, identifies patterns, generates alerts, and creates reports that can support investigation and audit review.
Does Atris SIEM Service require onsite hardware?
Atris SIEM Service is cloud-based and does not require major onsite hardware deployment.
What types of activity can Atris SIEM Service monitor?
Atris SIEM Service can monitor logons and logoffs, failed logons, user activity, privilege changes, audit log access, and system event changes.
Does customer data leave the institution’s datacenter?
Atris SIEM Service focuses on user log activity and security event data. Confidential customer data does not need to leave the institution’s datacenter for SIEM monitoring.
How does SIEM support GLBA and SOX review?
Atris SIEM Service supports GLBA and SOX review by helping institutions monitor access activity, track user behavior, document security oversight, and provide audit trails for management and examiner review.
Who uses the SIEM dashboards and reports?
