Roshan Jadhav - PeerSpot reviewer
Has improved threat detection and streamlined incident analysis through centralized control and AI-driven insights
People are looking for Cynet because it has next-generation threat protection that detects zero-day threats. It has UEBA (user entity behavior analysis), threat hunting features, and storage device control where we can create profiles and block unauthorized USB storage devices. We can also create threat protection policies to detect malware, ransomware, and many other threats. The most valuable feature is the UBA (User behavior analysis). It has integration with SIEM solutions, allowing us to share our logs to third-party SIEM servers. Cynet has AI integration which showcases complete forensic data about threats, making it very easy to understand what happened with the system and what type of incident was detected. Autonomous breach protection is a feature of Cynet which can detect and mitigate known and unknown threats based on signatures. If there are any signature-less files, malware, or ransomware, it will detect them based on autonomous breach protection capabilities. The centralized management console provides a dashboard where we can see four types of attack vectors and incident counts in real-time. It continuously scans the radar and shows open alerts related to files, hosts, users, or networks. We can easily export these alerts and send reports via email.

A scalable and stable tool that offers users a great GUI
Though I have not extensively worked on LogRhythm NDR, I know the need for a compute side since, in the past, we had required the compute side to deploy the solution in one of our company's client's infrastructure. The product's setup phase was easy and not complicated. The deployment process of LogRhythm NDR can vary between three and four weeks, depending on the skill set of the people involved in the deployment process. For deployment of the product, you have to purchase the license from LogRhythm, and you have to ensure that the compute side is ready for LogRhythm. After you deploy NDR and sensors in the premises of our company's customer on the SPAN and TAP port, and once the logs go through throughput, you can see the logs coming to LogRhythm NDR's console.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I like that you can implement it in the managed service portfolio."
"The valuable aspects of Cynet are its EDR and XDR components, which are available at a reasonable price point."
"Cynet's most valuable features are laptop and server performance, internal network monitoring, and external firewall lock management."
"Its ability to revert back from a previous state is quite notable. This feature is particularly valuable because, for maintaining integrity, it can inspect the socket for any firewall modifications. In practice, it allows us to return to a previous configuration when everything was functioning correctly."
"I like the Cynet Correlator™ feature."
"The EDR, as well as the XDR features, are very valuable."
"Cynet is light and transparent when downloaded. The product's data aggregation is also valuable since you can see everything you need on a page."
"It has quite good detection and response features; they are improving continuously."
"The solution doesn't require the creation of rules or use cases from scratch, which assists our delivery team in installation and deployment. Its dashboard is user-friendly."
"It is a stable solution...It is a scalable solution."
"It's an excellent security tool with a user-friendly interface that's easy for anyone to use."
 

Cons

"Cynet is capable and cloud-based, however, enterprise organizations often prefer on-premises servers for managing entire organizations."
"I cannot provide more details about Cynet's automation features. While Cynet claims to be automated, the specifics of this automation are unclear. They claim to have a high capability to detect and block attacks, but I am cautious about companies that claim to solve every problem without limitations. It does help in identifying malware on the network but doesn't specifically identify vulnerabilities."
"In terms of what could be improved, I would say the usability of this product for new threats. Meaning, not everything which is new is properly seen by the product and not all the required actions are taken."
"Management of the console could be simplified and made more user-friendly because right now it's not very easy to use."
"An administration feature will be useful for Cynet."
"In future releases, I would like to see cloud security aspects included."
"There could be more customization options and detailed information provided in the reports."
"One area where Cynet needs improvement is tamper protection for Mac and Linux agents."
"From an improvement perspective, I would like LogRhythm NDR to reduce the compute size. I would also like LogRhythm NDR to improve the pricing model."
"The tool has one limitation compared to its competitors. It does have a mobile app for NDR monitoring. Moreover, there is only operational training and not deployment training."
"There are opportunities for improvement, particularly in upgrading the expertise of local professionals and addressing support issues, which could potentially lead to cost reduction."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Cynet has a pay-as-you-go pricing model."
"Cynet is very affordable."
"There is an extra cost if you want the support of Cynet."
"Our billing is on a quarterly basis, but they have monthly or annual billing availability."
"Pricing wise, Cynet seems to be very competitive. The cost is probably lower than that offered by many of its competitors for all the functions and features it offers."
"The licensing for Cynet is yearly. The solution pricing depends on the customer, but it is not very expensive."
"It costs 18,000 per year, but we have the whole package with not only Cynet but also the Perception Point for emails. There are also some small security courses for our users."
"Its licensing is on a monthly basis."
"The tool costs are two million rupees for 5000 users."
"There are certain payments to be made towards the licensing costs attached to the product yearly. The pricing of LogRhythm NDR falls under the mid-range, in my opinion."
"When looking at the market and comparing it with other vendors, the cost seems relatively high."
