SIEM stands for Security Information and Event Management.

SIEM is continuing to grow in usage but where does it stand in terms of cloud deployments and what is its cloud-based market share?

Gartner's Dr. Anton Chuvakin challenges the idea that one can compute market share for "Cloud SIEM" products because they actually don't quite exist, yet.

While he acknowledges that there are some "almost" SaaS (Software as a Service) SIEM products and services, true cloud-based SIEM solutions are not available.

In conversation with Security Current's Vic Wheatman, Dr. Chuvakin provides a taxonomy for SIEM and describes for the definitional differences.
