DNIF HYPERCLOUD vs NetWitness Platform comparison

"Great for scaling productivity for log monitoring purposes."

"I like the MITRE table, a feature I saw for the first time in the same solution. There was one MITRE tactic table, which can be used to identify threats if you have all kinds of rules enabled or if you have rules for all the tactics in the MITRE table. There are 14 tables in MITRE, and those 14 tables consist of multiple columns, tactics, and techniques. It was one of the first SIEM tools I saw that had that particular MITRE table. On that basis, you can create new rules and identify existing ones. At any point, if an alert is triggered, it will try to match it to any of those MITRE tactics. I liked that creating a workbook on MITRE business was straightforward. I also like that you can search using SQL or DQL."

"The User Behavior Analytics is a built-in threat-hunting feature. It detects and reports on any kind of malware or ransomware that enters the network."

"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 solution is quite stable and offers good performance. It also works on a virtual machine. We haven't found any issues with it so far. It's been reliable."

"The dashboard is helpful, and it creates visualizations to let staff review event data and identify patterns and anomalies."

"The response time on queries is super-fast."

"The most valuable feature of the solution is the number of EPS it can handle."

"Setting up NetWitness is straightforward. There are multiple connectors, including standard and specialized connectors. One purpose of the connectors is the enhanced capability integrate the custom applications. NetWitness comes with E6 appliances and application images that we use for the initial configurations and for the OS stack information. From there, you can consider the correlation rules, integrate the different log sources, and easily create correlation rules and backlog reports."

"The newer 11.5 version that my team is using has found it to have good mapping."

"The software is scalable to whatever is required, and you can also put a lot of resources in the cloud."

"NetWitness can be highly beneficial for incident detection and response."

"Possibility to investigate incidents based on logs and raw packets, such as extracting files sent over the network"

"Incident management is its most valuable feature."

"The most valuable features are the packet decoder, log decoder, and concentrator."

"The most valuable features are the threat prediction and network forensics."

"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."

"The solution should be able to connect to endpoints, such as desktops and laptops... If this solution had a smart connector to these logs- Windows, Linux, or any other logs - without affecting the performance of the connector, that would be wonderful."

"I feel that DNIF needs to invest more in marketing, considering that it operates at a very competitive speed."

"There are currently some issues with machine learning plug-ins."

"The solution's command line should be simpler so that routine commands can be used."

"The EBA could be improved."

"Dependency on the DNIF support team was frustrating."

"The vendor is fairly new and it's not as big as some of the international competitors. It's not a mature product. If you ask them to move data, it might take a lot of time."

"I'd like to see improvement in its ease of use. It's basically unusable. It's overly complex."

"Lots of competing products have vulnerability protection built into their products, and this solution would be improved by including that support."

"An area for improvement would be better automation and more inbuilt use cases."

"They should implement algorithms to digest that data and produce additional, more advanced reporting, alerting and support of internal security teams."

"Security needs improvement."

"Log aggregation is an issue with this solution because there are a huge number of alerts in a single instance."

"The initial setup was complex because it takes a lot of time to complete the implementation."

"The system looks like it is a mix of a bunch of different systems, and nothing looked like it was quite together."

"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 pricing is based on the log size."

"The solution requires a huge infrastructure and that is costly."

"We are on an annual license for the use of the solution."

"This is a pricey solution; it's not cheap."

"The product is expensive."

"The product price was reasonable for my region and the market."

"RSA NetWitness Logs and Packets do not have a subscription model, it's a one-time purchase. There is only a perpetual license."

"Many clients are not able to purchase the packet capability because there is a huge amount of data, and the cost depends on the number of EPS (Events per second), as well as the number of gigabytes of data per day."

"We have a perpetual license, so the total cost of ownership is not very expensive. It's a good investment."

"Compared to the competition, the is price is not that high."
