A security operations center (SOC) analyst is struggling to correlate alerts from multiple disparate systems, including a SIEM, an EDR platform, and a network firewall. Each system has its own management console, forcing the analyst to constantly switch between interfaces. This is slowing down incident triage and investigation. Which of the following architectural concepts would MOST effectively address the analyst's challenge by consolidating data and providing a unified view?
A Single Pane of Glass (SPoG) architecture is designed to solve the exact problem described. It aggregates data and management interfaces from multiple, disparate security tools into a single, unified dashboard. This centralization improves an analyst's visibility across the environment and streamlines workflows for tasks like incident response, as they no longer need to switch between different consoles. Zero trust is a security model that treats all users and devices as untrusted, but it does not inherently solve the problem of multiple management interfaces. Serverless is an infrastructure model that abstracts servers but does not consolidate security tool dashboards. Data loss prevention (DLP) is a category of tool that would likely be one of the inputs to a SPoG, not the solution for integrating various tools.
