Good file integrity monitoring and change tracking tools but the knowledge base needs to be available online
For the NNT Log Tracker and Change Tracker, they have to make their knowledge base available online because there is very little information available on the internet. I would like to see the integration of AI technology, so rather than manually monitoring the logs, the tool will understand it and take care of it.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The FIM features in the Change Tracker and the Log Tracker are the most valuable."
"File integrity monitoring is a very important function."
"This is a very easy-to-use interface with a quick ramp-up time."
"The most valuable feature is the predefined reports for PCI compliance."
"AlienVault's reporting is good. I like that vulnerability assessment is part of the solution, and the UI is intuitive. Also, the overhead is low, which is to say we don't need a dedicated SOC team to manage and analyze things constantly. We're a small company that doesn't have those resources."
"The pricing is amazing and really cheap."
"The solution is stable."
"The feature that I liked the most is that they have a vulnerability assessment package that comes along with the SIEM solution. So, whenever I find any threat or alert for any of the devices or servers, I could immediately initiate a vulnerability assessment scan on that machine. That is one of a kind. The price at which AlienVault operates is also valuable."
"The ease of implementation is the most valuable feature."
"It provides a single pane of glass view, coupled with a whole security ecosystem. The ability to manage everything from a central point, including vulnerability assessments, asset management - including the services provided by the various hosts, NIDS, HIDS, etc. - provides a very efficient way of dealing with things."
"The AlienVault solution has enabled us to create a SOC on a budget with smaller than usual staff requirements, offering a wider range of solutions for our customers."
"The most valuable feature in AT&T AlienVault USM is the reporting."
 

Cons

"It is able to identify the vulnerability, however, they need an option to auto-mitigate."
"I would like to see the integration of AI technology, so rather than manually monitoring the logs, the tool will understand it and take care of it."
"Only one minor deployment issue came up and it was resolved quickly. No other areas of improvement come to mind yet."
"The correlation suite needs to be improved."
"There could be some type of integration with our existing portal. We have our own customer portals, and it would be good if there was an integration so that our portal can provide reports. There could be some type of API into the AlienVault system with the USM system so that it is easy to show the customers high-level reports of the system through our portal."
"It would be hard for any legitimate MSSP to use it."
"It was easy on PoC, but when we got to the product it was different story. We had to learn the product again and got feeling that the PoC was a different product."
"The reporting aspect could be improved. While there are a lot of different options available, there are still pieces which are missing."
"AlienVault must improve their correlation feature. Some of the events do not match with the correlation rules and some of the correlation events are false-positive."
"Support can be slow at times, but the quality is high. Posted knowledge base articles could use improvement."
"The one thing I continue to dislike about the USM is the limitation on reports."
"We would like more plugins. This being the main point of improvement which would benefit the users."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Consider both their on-premises solution and their hosted solution. Both are reasonably priced."
"We have selected a perpetual license along with support."
"NNT's pricing is moderate - I would rate their pricing two-and-a-half out of ten."
"Negotiate the best package for your environment."
"It's very reasonably priced. It was one of the lowest among the ones I looked at. Licensing is pretty flexible. They can do a two-year or a three-year, even a one-year, perhaps."
"The licensing fees are dependent on usage."
"We ran a few PoCs. The price and feature set were the best with AlienVault."
"Use an MSSP instead. It is much cheaper."
"They charge a license based on the storage. ATT AlienVault USM is a less expensive solution than IBM QRadar."
"It allows you to do a lot with a small price tag... The pricing is the best on the market."
"It's affordable for most customers."
