Offers remediation capabilities and provides a bird's-eye view of events happening in your environment, summarizing critical events that need attention

One drawback is that it becomes so easy to use that users may lose the habit of manual checks and balances. As a security person, you should always worry about potential threats. If you have a very useful and easy tool, you might lose the ability to think differently and critically. For example, in a group of ten people, if nine think the same way and one thinks differently, you should consider the tenth person's perspective because they might have valuable insights. Having a great product is not always beneficial because you may become too dependent on it, which can be problematic in the long term. If you lose your critical thinking skills, you might not recognize when something abnormal is happening. While the system will notice, systems can have their own challenges and issues. I'm not criticizing the product itself but emphasizing the importance of not being overly dependent on machines. Similar to what we see with Tesla cars, no matter how advanced, there is always a chance things may not work as expected. So, the users need to prepare for that eventuality. Seceon Open Threat Management Platform has some add-ons that they sell as part of the whole suite, but not individually. If they sold them individually, they could potentially get more business.

Helps us detect cyber threats quickly and integrate multiple feeds effectively

Overall, the product is good, but when it comes to some infrastructure issues, we have to dig into more logs. There is no straightforward indication of an issue. Health check kind of dashboards are not available. More AI would help us, and more optimization, since security products run more queries. The AI module could suggest solutions, optimizing queries or workload balancing. If the product itself advises on running queries during peak times, it would be similar to what ChatGPT currently offers. We see quite a few issues on stability. Even last week, we faced something, and identifying bottlenecks is not easy. We need more SMEs, and there is no mechanism to tell us about indexer or search head issues. Self-monitoring dashboards could be beneficial. The technical support still requires more improvement. Often, primary support takes a lot of time and forwards most solutions to the engineering side. The primary support team has very limited knowledge to provide.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution is very cost-effective compared to Splunk and LogRhythm."

"The most valuable feature of this solution is its artificial intelligence."

"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."

"You can use different solutions in a single platform which is very easy and attractive for customers."

"Seceon Open Threat Management Platform notifies only genuine alerts. It offers plenty of options that are suitable for MSPs."

"The pricing of Seceon Open Threat Management Platform is very reasonable."

"The most valuable features are behaviour analytics, threat intelligence, endpoint detection, and response features."

"The main thing is the value proposition; it is one of the most sophisticated yet affordable solutions that I've come across, and it is also one of the easiest-to-manage yet comprehensive solutions for a SOC analyst."

More Seceon Open Threat Management Platform pros

"The integration is seamless with many devices and operating systems."

"We have majorly utilized Splunk Enterprise Security in SIEM and SOAR use cases, and the product is top-notch, with no problems."

"Splunk's advantage is its search capability. Its search is notably faster. With Splunk, I can search easily on keywords. That is great."

"Splunk Enterprise Security helps my SOC team prioritize and investigate high-fidelity alerts more effectively by enabling us to quickly gather information, collaborate, and provide various teams with access to the same information, allowing them to follow the workflow to complete the task."

"Splunk's interface is user-friendly, and it has apps and add-ons for most applications. We can easily normalize the data to make it readable and understand the logs. We easily get all the field extractions and enrichment done by using the apps and add-ons. This helps us understand the application logs because the raw data is useless unless we extract some useful information from it. These add-ons make it so much easier."

"Great platform with user-friendly interface and GUI."

"This is a straightforward solution, easy to configure."

"Splunk has facilitated the correlation of information security logs to look for incidents which could cause damage to the company's infrastructure, as well as financial losses from leaks."

Cons

"Certain features, such as DLP, need to be improved as they are superficial and not in-depth."

"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."

"It would be better if they offered global coverage."

"For small to medium-sized customers, Seceon Open Threat Management Platform is good. However, for large enterprises, it is not as effective."

"We are at the client’s end, offering services. They don’t know about security rules and benchmarks. We are working on the discovery and remediation but we don’t really have the intelligence that was available while working with other tools. Human working is also very essential for the solution. The automatic session is impossible to play since it needs to touch Redfin for further analysis. No one has breached our clients."

"The product should improve the triggering rate."

"The product could be improved by including sandboxing capabilities in the next release."

"It needs more compatibility for co-managed solutions."

More Seceon Open Threat Management Platform cons

"We usually have to follow up with technical support on our open cases."

"Splunk needs to be able to hold more days of data. At the moment it only holds three months of data."

"It would be great if I could have a certain dialogue box in Splunk that uses innovative AI tools like ChatGPT, which are available now in the tech department."

"There's been a big push for SBC compute over the ingestion model, which will hamper us."

"Operational workflow, use case framework, and ticketing systems need improvement to make it suitable for SOC environments."

"Missing capability for audio/video and image processing."

"It's missing some features that other solutions have, such as the ability to upgrade the endpoint and perform endpoint universal forwarders from a deployment server instead of using a third-party solution, such as Puppet or Ansible."

"Its search or filtering capability is nice, but it can be improved. It is currently a bit complicated, and it should be simplified. If we can write the search filter in a more simplified way, it would be better."

More Splunk Enterprise Security cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We used the solution's trial version for two months and later purchased it."

"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."

"Seceon Open Threat Management Platform is cost-effective because it's a comprehensive platform that offers high availability."

"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."

"The price is quite reasonable."

"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."

"The price of Splunk Enterprise Security is high."

"It is expensive. I work for multiple clients. I am working for more than five clients, but most of the clients are switching from Splunk to Sentinel because of the cost. Even though Sentinel is very limited, clients are moving to Sentinel."

"Although Splunk is an expensive product, it is designed to be utilized across your organization in order to maximize your ROI and lower your TCO."

"Splunk Enterprise Security is expensive. I would rate the cost an eight out of ten with ten being the most expensive."

"We have had a reduction in the time it takes to resolve issues and correlate what has failed."

"Setup cost is cheap: It is free, it is user-friendly, and it is fast."

"I think the price could be improved."

"Splunk is definitely not a cheap solution. It is an expensive product."
