Beneficial single unified dashboard, good native application integration, and high availability

The most valuable feature of RSA NetWitness Network is the single unified dashboard from which you can manage all the different products of RSA. Additionally, the integration with native applications is good RSA NetWitness Network could improve on integration with non-native application…

Used to store and monitor application logs and VPC flow logs

We are mainly concentrating on networking. We use VPC products and application logs to monitor the genuineness of users who have logged in. We also store and monitor GuardDuty logs to see if someone is trying to access the same server multiple times. We are storing and monitoring WAF logs and GuardDuty logs. If someone faces any issues, we'll receive an email and take action based on it. If someone tries to access one of the applications from a different country, we can search in Google and identify the location of that particular IP address. Sumo Logic Security identifies whether a particular IP address is low, medium, or high risk without the help of Google. We can store logs in CloudWatch, but it is very difficult to search them in CloudWatch. We should know the query in order to do that. Searching for logs with Sumo Logic Security is very easy compared to CloudWatch. We have been using the solution for more than two years and haven't faced any issues with the solution's availability. I would recommend the solution to other users. I would recommend Sumo Logic Security instead of AWS, CloudWatch, or CloudTrail. With Sumo Logic Security, you can capture and see all the logs in a single place. If some issues occur, you can log into the solution and verify all the logs. At an organizational level, we have multiple AWS accounts for different environments. Instead of logging in to all the AWS accounts, you can log in to Sumo Logic Security and verify everything. Overall, I rate the solution a nine out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We've contacted technical support several times. They've been very good. They have been able to help us resolve our issues."

"NetWitness Endpoint's most valuable features are its interoperability across many different operating systems and the ease of pivoting from network to endpoint via a single console."

"It helps our security team respond more accurately when there are threats, then we get less false positives or negatives."

"The stability of the RSA NetWitness Endpoint is very good."

"The log correlation is good."

"It is very easy to use, and its usability is great. The use cases are also very easy. The visualizations of the use cases are magnificent. You cannot find this in any other solution. From my point of view, it is great."

"They have recently updated the features and the most valuable ones are the instant threat response, ease of use, web interface, integration, and easy access. RSA NetWitness Endpoint is very compatible with other solutions and technologies. However, they do not rely on third-party solutions and have most features built-in."

"Technical support is knowledgeable."

More NetWitness NDR pros

"Technical support is always great."

"We can integrate threat intelligence solutions into the product."

"We have used it many times to find a root cause of a live issue, then fix the problem in the applications."

"For many of our services, we use Sumo Logic to track errors and send notifications to our Slack channel, if there are issues. Then, we have our support people monitoring this, and they can react quickly."

"With this tool, we provide access to every developer team the ability to find errors, then they come to us and ask for specific help."

"The solution is quite stable."

"We are able to diagnose problems before our customers."

"The features I found valuable with the Sumo Logic Security solution are the search option and the ability to customize the search for the information in the logs."

More Sumo Logic Security pros

Cons

"The integration of the solution needs to be improved. The dashboard needs lots of updates as well. In the next release, we would like to see advanced fraud detection features."

"The threat intelligence could improve in RSA NetWitness Endpoint."

"The deployment process is complex. I don't know why, but this solution will suddenly stop working. Logs stop coming. Often, one thing or another stops working. Most of the time, one of my team members is working with troubleshooting and working with technical support. Log passing is also one of the biggest challenge."

"The initial setup requires a high level of skill."

"NetWitness Endpoint's blocking feature does not work properly - if there's a malicious process, it's not possible to kill it via a custom rule unless and until it's flagged as malicious."

"The solution lacks a reporting engine."

"Threat detection could be better."

"This solution needs an upgrade in reporting. I have heard from RSA that they are working on this, but as of yet it is not available."

More NetWitness NDR cons

"There needs to be improvement on imported data which can be used within Sumo Logic to do more advanced queries."

"I would like to see improvement in the user experience when configuring things, ingesting logs, and creating ports."

"If you look at some of the other offerings right now that are available in the market, they do offer APM as well as the product they're offering. I believe Sumo Logic is not there yet. So that's something which I would love to see."

"The initial setup is the most stressful, like learning how to use it."

"Sumo Logic needs to make sure integrating solutions are seamless."

"We would like to have some type of predefined setup for the logs, making the setup easier by default."

"The API integration in Sumo Logic Security could improve. There are delayed connections or they stop and then automatically start. Having a seamless log collection would be beneficial."

"The solution should improve its UI."

More Sumo Logic Security cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of the solution depends on the environment. If the environment is large then it will cost more. However, the larger the environment with more endpoints, you will receive an increased discount. If the environment is very small, then you might think it is expensive. It is always better to buy in bulk to receive a discount. The minimum number of assets is usually 500, with discounts on 1000 and 2000."

"NetWitness Endpoint is less costly than its competitors, but it offers fewer features."

"The pricing is not very economical. It is a quite costly product for India. One thing is that when you purchase it, you have to purchase a module separately."

"We are on a three-year contract to use RSA NetWitness Network."

"I do not have any opinion on the pricing or licensing of the product."

"They can easily adjust if you have the requirements which are required. If you have a budget cut or a budget constraint, they can bend."

"With RSA, there is flexibility in choosing the service, products, and the range that meets your requirement, as well as they are flexible in terms of pricing."

"It is highly scalable. It can be bought based on your requirements."

More NetWitness NDR pricing and cost advice

"We chose to go through the AWS Marketplace because it makes it a lot easier when we bill our customers. Rather than having to get multiple different sources of information then correlate a monthly bill for our customers, it is just included in the AWS usage charges."

"The AWS Marketplace pricing is fairly reasonable for what it does. I wouldn't call it expensive, but I wouldn't call it cheap. It is pretty good."

"The only limit to the scalability of the product for us is how much we are willing to pay."

"Pricing has been cheaper than some of the competing tools, like Splunk."

"Purchasing the solution through the AWS Marketplace is very easy."

"The product is costly."

"If we went to ELK Stack, which is open source, it would have been less costly, but it would have required more development from our side."

"The pricing is a little high, but for the features that we receive from Sumo Logic, it suits the price. For some small organizations, the price might be a little high."
