Information Security at Synechron

Has essential threat detection capabilities, but the features for intelligence need enhancement

We integrated this tool with our security infrastructure. We installed it on a Linux server, where we have a Logger and ESM installed. With the Linux server as the hub, we manage all the configurations and rules, including those for email triggers. The logs are routed through a connector to the Logger, allowing us to monitor our infrastructure effectively. The platform helps us improve threat detection capabilities. I recommend it to others and rate it a seven out of ten.

Mohamed Tantawy

IT Technical Support Deputy General Manager at a financial services firm with 10,001+ employees

Can track every admin action in large environments and includes AI modules to detect and prevent unauthorized changes

The initial setup of Netwrix Auditor was straightforward. Some functions require agents while others are agentless, simplifying implementation. It consumed minimal server and client resources, and the wizard-based console made it simple to deploy with the help of architectural teams. All required ports were in place, and they covered all critical services and databases effectively. I would rate the easiness of the initial setup as a nine out of ten. The deployment of Netwrix Auditor took around three weeks, mainly due to the preparation of the environment and servers. The deployment process involved actions such as preparing virtual servers and building databases. Once deployed, it took only about a week to complete. Third-party consultants assisted us with deployment. Only one or two engineers were needed for deployment and maintenance, which could be handled remotely with minimal complexity.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"The product has a valuable interface."

"The platform helps us improve threat detection capabilities."

"The ability to tailor an environment to suit our specific use cases is a major advantage of ArcSight compared to other logging servers such as Splunk."

"The most valuable feature of ArcSight Intelligence is a single console where the entire dashboard gives all the connected details in a single place."

"We found the correlation engine to be very good. It takes logs from different types of devices and does the correlation in a good way."

"The most valuable feature is the real-time monitoring."

"I am impressed with the tool's reporting feature and notifications."

"I have found user behavior analysis and the ability to run risk assessments important features. Additionally, the interface and online documentation are very good."

"What I find the most valuable about Netwrix Auditor is the way it shows risk. The reports are very clear."

"It maintains audit logs for the duration of time that you wish, as long as you have the storage capacity to do so."

"Netwrix provides features that no other solution on the market does."

"The most valuable features of Netwrix Auditor are its affordability compared to similar products and its comprehensive monitoring of admin activities."

Cons

"ArcSight Intelligence's pricing needs improvement."

"The dashboard is not user-friendly and is in black and white."

"ArcSight Intelligence is a bit slower, and its speed should be improved."

"We haven't found the product fully scalable."

"The frequency of the updates that we are getting can be improved because the number and types of incidents that are happening at the global level are far more than what we are receiving. The frequency of updates feeds related to our rules should be increased. There should be more frequent information about the new rules that are coming and the global threats that are happening. There should be better options for dashboard creation. At present, the dashboards are good, but there is scope to make them better."

"If you buy direct, there is a minimum of 150 licenses that must be procured. The price point and barrier of entry is a little bit higher than it would be if you purchased the solution from an authorized reseller partner, rather than buying it and managing yourself."

"There is room for improvements when it comes to the licensing."

"The Linux compatibility of this solution could be improved."

"There is room for improvement with the introduction of AI functionality."

"I expect usability features to become more refined over time. I'm interested to see how it evolves and continues to improve."

"An improvement would be if there was an another way to manage the logs besides email because it's not so practical."

"When there are issues I would like remediation to be in one place."

"The solution lacks self-service on password reset. It also needs to improve its scalability."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"ArcSight Intelligence is an expensive solution."

"Its price is average and not very high. Splunk might be a bit cheaper than this. Its licensing is on a monthly basis."

"The solution is expensive and only suitable for enterprise environments."

"It is an expensive platform."

"They offer perpetual licenses for the product."

"This solution is reasonably priced. I would rate it a nine out of ten."

"There is a license for this solution and we are on an annual license. The price is reasonable."

"The tool's price is fair."

Cybereason vs. Interset vs. SQRRL

Capture DB - they all use NoSQL db and hence solve the ad hoc query and 'go back in time' problem with current best of breed SIEM and DLP solutions that rely on real time analysis of incoming logs (and don't store them). This means deeper and quicker iterative threat analysis and assessment…
