The solution's command line should be simpler so that routine commands can be used. The search configuration is a bit different than other OEMs or SIEM solutions like ArcSight or QRadar that are easy to search because they operate similarly. The logic is there and the solution supplies a pretty good explanation. Basically, DNIF spelled out is the opposite of FIND. You have to find commands whenever you want to search something. For example, a highway gets you to your destination but there is an alternate way people don't yet know about. Gartner or Forrester haven't yet studied it. We were a bit nervous when we were trying to get familiar with the solution. We wondered if we could realize ROI because the commands and ways of pulling data were different to us. We raised a case with the support team and their professionals provided the needed support. The command line is user friendly once you understand it. If you need immediate use, then you might want to get assistance from someone who is well-versed in methods for using key patterns to find things. Lengthier files for threat hunting or analysis are needed. The correlation happens, but exporting a large number of files to abstract them is not possible. For example, I want to present raw data to management so I should be able to customize a date range in my query and download the files.

The tool's ability in the area of its analytic capabilities has enhanced our company's security poster in a good way, especially when compared to some of the other competitors in the market, like Splunk, QRadar, or LogRhythm. I rate the product's ability to impact operational costs or security incident handling time as a three or four out of ten. I did not face any integration-related challenges with the product. The product can be considered to be technically interoperable. The product is leveraging AI for security management in a good way. AI is a common technology that is available everywhere. AI is suitable for getting a better incident response. Wherever we can use AI to improve the technology, it's always good. I recommend others to use the product because it is a technically good tool and you can scale up to any number of EPS. It is easy to integrate the tool with other products. The solution is quite price-sensitive and economical. I rate the tool a seven out of ten.

I think DNIF HYPERCLOUD can implement the ability to export more than 100,000. At the moment, we can't go beyond that. So many times, if you're checking for the firewall logs and working on something related to authentication or network-related traffic, while that log count is low, the account goes beyond that. You can't restrict the logs or the amount of data you can export. It's very important for my situation. It would be better if they could increase the capacity of exports. Although there are many more types of searching in DNIF HYPERCLOUD, people still struggle to query out what they want because not everyone is good at SQL or DQL. The easiest way to query out in DNIF is using the GUI-based interface. But in the GUI interface, you can use operator calls. It gets tricky when you want to search for a specific type of event. You don't know where it will be passed and whether it will be consistent. In the initial phase, it's tough for us to use DNIF. You cannot pass every event in a stable DNIF. When we used that particular tool, we used to get those logs, but sometimes many things are not getting passed. So, we used to export the sheet or export the data into Excel and weigh the required details. In the next release, I would like them to improve the export of the columns and make the application more user-friendly. I would also like a threat-hunting feature in the next release.

Key learnings from peers

Last updated Sep 18, 2024

Valuable Features

DNIF HyperCloud offers open-source infrastructure development, user Entity Behavior Analytics for emergency response systems, a MITRE table for identifying threats, and simple and enhanced search capabilities.

"The most valuable feature of the solution is the number of EPS it can handle."
"The beauty of the solution is that you can develop infrastructure for a data lake using open sources that are separate from the licenses."
"The dashboard is helpful, and it creates visualizations to let staff review event data and identify patterns and anomalies."

Room for Improvement

The command line interface of DNIF HYPERCLOUD should be simpler and more user-friendly. Additionally, the search configuration is different from other SIEM solutions, making it difficult for users to find and pull data. Longer files for threat hunting or analysis are needed, as is the ability to export more than 100,000 logs.

The EBA could be improved, with some dashboards not showing important data and file integrity monitoring missing. Some users have also experienced issues with machine learning plugins and had to depend heavily on the support team for troubleshooting. Integration with devices is limited and requires manual forwarding of logs.

"I feel that DNIF needs to invest more in marketing, considering that it operates at a very competitive speed."
"The solution's command line should be simpler so that routine commands can be used."
"The EBA could be improved."

ROI

The ROI reported by users varies, with some experiencing cost savings and others feeling disappointed despite low expectations from an inexpensive product.

Pricing

DNIF HYPERCLOUD is generally seen as a cost-effective solution for organizations with limited budgets or developing SOCs. Users find it economical, rating its price as three or four on a scale from one to ten. However, it requires significant infrastructure, leading to higher overall costs. Users appreciate its capability to meet compliance requirements, but recommend evaluating budget constraints and ROI potential before investing.

"Price-wise, the product is quite economical. I rate the solution's price as three or four on a scale of one to ten, where one is considered to be a very economically priced tool."
"The solution requires a huge infrastructure and that is costly."
"The pricing is based on the log size."

Popular Use Cases

DNIF HYPERCLOUD is being used as a next-generation security operations center that automates administration and orchestration for threat hunting, log monitoring, and related activities. The tool provides real-time notification and alerting, log correlation, and threat intelligence, making it useful for emergency response system monitoring. The hybrid model has an on-premises hardware infrastructure and log collector, while the SIEM is administered via the cloud portal and managed on-premises. It can help validate logs, identify potential security threats, and meet compliance requirements by retaining logs for at least a year.

Service and Support

DNIF HYPERCLOUD's customer service and support have improved over time, with the support center providing assistance and timely responses from the technical team. The team is friendly and helpful, although there is a dependency on them that can sometimes result in slower response times.

Deployment

The initial setup for DNIF HYPERCLOUD can be challenging due to the need for a large infrastructure, with up to 15 servers required for limited EPS. Configuration and administration of each component is easy and documentation is provided on the website.

Training is necessary to understand the tool, which can be challenging. The DNIF support team handles deployment and maintenance, but there may be recurring problems with server capacity.

Scalability

The solution is highly scalable and can be easily scaled both horizontally and vertically.

Stability

DNIF HYPERCLOUD is considered stable, with occasional hardware issues that can cause troubleshooting to take longer. Some reviewers have experienced instability compared to other similar tools, with version 8 being particularly problematic. Log loss has also been reported.

These insights are based on the in-depth reviews provided by peers to help you make a better buying decision.
