Flexible licensing, good support, and helpful for responding quickly to an event
Splunk Enterprise Security helps with application events. It provides end-to-end visibility into our environment which is most important for us. It reduces the time to react to an event. Splunk Enterprise Security has helped improve our organization’s ability to ingest and normalize data. It can help identify and solve problems in real-time, but we have mainly utilized it for post-identification correction. It provides us with the relevant context to help guide our investigations. It is easier for developers to take action once an anomaly is detected. We have been leveraging Splunk dashboards for that. Splunk Enterprise Security has helped speed up our security investigations, but I do not have the metrics. They are a good partner for Google Cloud. It provides great visibility, threat detection, and proactive mitigation of risks for our mutual consumers.
