Not only does it easily integrate with third-party tools but also allows auto synchronization of logs
AWS Security Hub has advanced quite a bit over the last couple of years. The features are quite rich now. Before purchasing, one should develop an understanding of the product. I believe AWS Security Hub is one of the most friendly solutions for integration with third-party tools. I find the integration of AWS Security Hub to be the easiest with tools from Microsoft and a bit difficult with Google solutions. AWS Security Hub is compliant in many different ways. The development business I am part of is SOC compliant for AWS Security Hub, while the banks our organization works with have been PCI compliant for AWS Security Hub for three years. I would definitely recommend AWS Security Hub to others, yet I would also inquire about their purpose and knowledge of cloud solutions. If you know how to use AWS Security Hub, it can be a great solution to work with. The solution is more suitable for people working in the cloud instead of on-premises. I would rate AWS Security Hub a nine out of ten.

Has the ability to categorize alerts and reporting dashboards are useful
The algorithm used in Seceon OTM is clear and logical, categorizing events as needed. This helps us identify and respond to threats effectively. The ability to categorize alerts and the reporting dashboards are valuable features. AI-driven analysis aids in identifying critical alerts, and real-time threat detection improves our response time.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Currently, our organization utilizes AWS for various purposes, including SaaS (Software as a Service), PaaS (Platform as a Service), and hosting applications in the cloud. We develop our applications and use AWS services as a platform for basic functions and secondary development needs. Additionally, we rely on PaaS for accounting services. Approximately, 50% of our applications are hosted in the cloud environment, making it a significant part of our current setup."
"Cloudposse is a valuable feature as it guarantees my security."
"The platform has valuable features for security."
"The most beneficial aspect of Security Hub is its proactive capability, allowing us to identify potential security issues before they escalate."
"The most valuable feature of the solution stems from the fact that it is easy to manage...It is a scalable solution."
"The most valuable feature of AWS Security Hub is the ability to track when monitoring is not enabled on any of my resources."
"I find all of the features to be highly valuable."
"AWS Security Hub has very good integration features. It allows for AWS native services integration, and it helps us to integrate some of the services outside of AWS. They have partners, such as Amazon Preferred Network Partners (APN). If you have different security tools around APN, we can integrate those findings with AWS Security Hub reducing the need to refer to different portals or different UIs. You can have AWS Security Hub act as a single common go-to dashboard."
"It is effective because it has threat intelligence from across the world and constantly checks and updates for new threats."
"The solution is very cost-effective compared to Splunk and LogRhythm."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is its artificial intelligence."
"You can use different solutions in a single platform which is very easy and attractive for customers."
"It offers a holistic approach with multiple solutions blended into one platform."
"Seceon Open Threat Management Platform notifies only genuine alerts. It offers plenty of options that are suitable for MSPs."
"The main thing is the value proposition. It is one of the most sophisticated yet affordable solutions that I've come across. It is also one of the easiest-to-manage yet comprehensive solutions for a SOC analyst. Its customizations are really good, and it has a lot of integrations. It is multi-tenant and very fast to onboard. Its stability is 100%. We've never had an outage with it. It doesn't require extensive hardware resources. Its level of support is also very good. They have a very responsive technical team."
"The algorithm used in Seceon OTM is clear and logical, categorizing events as needed. This helps us identify and respond to threats effectively."
 

Cons

"From an improvement perspective, there is a need to add more compliance since, right now, AWS Security Hub only provides four to five compliances to control the tool."
"Security needs to be measured based on their own criteria. We can't add custom criteria specific to our organization. For example, having an S3 bucket publicly available might be flagged as a critical alert, but it might not be critical in a sandbox environment. So, it gets flagged as critical, which becomes a false positive. So, customization options and creating custom dashboards would be areas for improvement."
"Although AWS Security Hub does a periodic scan of your overall infrastructure, it doesn't do it in real time."
"It is not flexible for multi-cloud environments."
"The solution lacks self-sufficiency."
"The solution will only give you insight if you have configure rule enabled. It should work more like Prisma Cloud and Dome9 which have a better approach."
"We need more granular-level customizations to enable or disable the rules in AWS Security Hub."
"The solution should be easier to learn and use"
"It would be ideal with the processing was more manageable. Not many customers are willing to have a dedicated server with two CPUs and one TB of memory. The cost of this is huge for a smaller organization."
"The SOP they provided wasn't great. They offered training over Sherp Virtualization, and the Seceon leadership visited our location to explain everything in detail, but the documentation and training could be better. It isn't as effective as it could be. There's some room for improvement there."
"Seceon Open Threat Management Platform sells some add-ons as part of the whole suite but not individually. If they sold them individually, they could potentially attract more business."
"It is a standalone solution now. They need to make it into a cloud-based subscription model. It needs more compatibility for co-managed solutions. It can also have more threats and deeper integration with Microsoft."
"The product could be improved by including sandboxing capabilities in the next release."
"For future releases, integrating incident response tools and improving communication on incident reporting could be beneficial."
"The product should improve the triggering rate."
"Certain features, such as DLP, need to be improved as they are superficial and not in-depth."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of AWS Security Hub is average compared to other solutions."
"AWS Security Hub's pricing is pretty reasonable."
"The price of the solution is not very competitive but it is reasonable."
"There are multiple subscription models, like yearly, monthly, and packaged."
"The pricing is fine. It is not an expensive tool."
"Security Hub is not an expensive solution."
"AWS Security Hub is not an expensive tool. I would consider it to be a cheap solution. AWS Security Hub follows the PAYG pricing model, meaning you will have to pay for whatever you use."
"The pricing is very competitive. It's not expensive."
"It has a per-asset model instead of an ingestion-based model, which gives predictable pricing. In terms of price, it is in the middle to lower range of SIEMs that it competes against. It is the most affordable solution that we have implemented so far. It was much more affordable than anything else I've implemented."
"I find Seceon OTM's pricing to be reasonable, not too high or low, just okay for the market standards. I can't disclose specific figures, we pay on a quarterly basis under a service model. I would rate it eight out of ten. As a customer, I always hope for better pricing options."
"We used the solution's trial version for two months and later purchased it."
"The price is quite reasonable."
"Seceon Open Threat Management Platform is cost-effective because it's a comprehensive platform that offers high availability."
"The solution is cheap and very competitive. It offers good tuning in terms of the pricing. Other solutions like Palo Alto and IBM are more expensive."

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…
