BQ204G – IBM Security QRadar SIEM Advanced Topics

Course Description:
IBM® Security QRadar® enables you to minimize the time gap between when a suspicious activity occurs and when you detect it. Attacks and policy violations leave their footprints in log events and network flows of your IT systems.
