LogRhythm SIEM Reviews

It's a next-generation SIEM solution. We use it for our clients. 

It has connectivity with multiple log sources - including those that are on-prem and in the cloud (including GCP, AWS and our own cloud).

It is extremely scalable. 

Technical support has always been helpful.

It is stable, reliable, and flexible. 

It's not easy for someone new to the solution. There are some complexities involved with the initial onboarding. It needs to have more user-friendly dashboards and onboarding processes. 

It is a premium solution which means it is quite expensive. 

I've used the solution for the last three years. 

The solution is scalable. I'd rate it eight out of ten. There are no bugs or glitches. It's reliable, and the performance is good. 

The solution is very scalable vertically as well as horizontally. It is great for big setups. You can scale as per your requirements. There's no issue with expansion. I'd rate the solution nine out of ten in terms of ease of scaling if a company has multiple locations or has a setup across countries. 

We are a gold partner. We've never faced any support issues. They are very helpful and responsive. 

Positive

I've also used with QRadar, which is easier, for example, to set up and is more user-friendly. 

The solution can be difficult to set up. I'd rate the process six out of ten. You need to know what you are doing. There are complexities involved. 

A hardware-based setup would require some configurations. Typically, we need a minimum of three to four weeks to do a setup. 

The solution is moderately priced. Sometimes they give good deals if there is a larger requirement. 

If the solution is on-prem, there is a cost to investment. If it is on cloud, this is not the case. 

We are a gold partner. 

I'd recommend the solution to others. It has a lot of new features and offers AI and ML. There is good support, scalability, and flexibility on offer. 

I'd rate the solution seven out of ten. 

We have about 600 employees supported by this solution. Our goal is to try and bring in at least one additional application into our SIEM tool each month so that we can get better insights for those particular platforms.

This solution has improved our organization in many different ways. The biggest benefit is being able to view all information in one dashboard instead of having to look at several different applications and dashboards. I can see information across our entire environment and every aspect of our network.

LogRhythm really helps with our cybersecurity exposure because it gives us insights to make us more proactive versus reactive regarding events happening in our environment. LogRhythm gave us so much insight into blind spots that we didn't even know we had.

LogRhythm also really helped our environment in terms of security posture because it gives us so much more information that we can use in a timely manner. Some of our other providers don't give us reports until as late as the next day. With LogRhythm, we can have alarms triggered within seconds that let us know that there are particular things that need to be addressed. This is much quicker than if we just trusted that particular vendor to let us know.

My favorite feature is the Drill Down which allows us to look at several different logs originating off of one particular alarm. If there is suspicious activity, we can use that feature to access one dashboard with different anomalies that might stand out or different places where alarms would've been triggered for particular events. 

We use the Event Log Filtering feature quite often. It makes it much easier to find useful information in our SIEM tool in a quick and efficient manner. There have been several times when we have imported 20,000 plus logs within a matter of minutes and it makes it much easier to find what we're looking for, especially when time matters.

The Event Log Filtering utility also allowed us to find information much quicker in our environment because it simplified the process of finding information. 

Better integration with different services is needed, as there are quite a few platforms that we use that don't integrate very smoothly with LogRhythm. We would like to plug in an API key for another system and have that vendor's information readily available. 

We've been using LogRhythm as our SIEM provider for about five or six years now. I have personally only been using it for the last six months, learning the ins and outs of how it can support our organization. 

LogRhythm is very stable and reliable.

LogRhythm has amazing scalability potential for whatever your particular needs are.

We've had really good experiences with LogRhythm's technical support for things that are already in the environment. When it comes to trying to innovate with some of the newer things, this has been a little bit more difficult. I feel like they could be a little bit more intuitive going forward. I would rate their technical support an eight out of ten.

Positive

I would rate LogRhythm an eight out of ten.

It's our primary threat-hunting tool. We use it to look for anomalies. We use it for investigations. We use it for just about everything security related. If we find it in another tool, we use the SIEM to cross reference what activity we would see either from that user or from that machine that we saw in the other tool.

It's improved our organization in a number of ways. 

Before we got the current SIEM, for example, the previous SIEM was not our primary threat-hunting tool. It was a data point we would go to occasionally.  Today, LogRhythm SIEM is our primary threat-hunting tool thanks to the user-friendly interface, which is much better compared to what we've had previously.

The ability to return relevant information from a search to provide either corroborating evidence for an investigation we were already undergoing or just being in a better place to go hunt for threats has made me feel that the environment is safer than what we had previously. 

Previously, with McAfee SIEM, we had no confidence that it would help us in an investigation, so we frequently did not lean on it. It let us down so many times. LogRhythm SIEM gives us a sense of confidence that, during an investigation, it's a solid source of information that we can use to complement the investigation or perhaps complete the entire investigation within the SIEM.

Our previous SIEM did not have dashboards, so there wasn't a starting point. With our previous SIEM, we had to have a specific thing we were looking for, and only then we could find it. 

The dashboards in the LogRhythm SIEM really help us as a starting point. It gives us a starting point we can go to every day. We walk through several dashboards to see anomalous activity for further investigation. The dashboards, therefore, are our favorite feature of the SIEM.

The solution helped with productivity and the ability to process logs. We do Event Log Filtering for certain log types, which we don't want in our SIEM as they're just too noisy. Having too much noise in the SIEM makes it harder to find relevant things. Therefore, we use Log Filtering to limit the noise. It's also given us the ability to bring more logs in, so we bring them all from all of our workstations and servers. Doing the log filtering this way allowed us to bring in other log sources and keep the noise manageable.

It's helped reduce our administrative overhead. Before we started doing the log filtering, we exceeded our license capacity for what we were licensed in terms of logs in our SIEM. The filtering allowed us to bring the noise down and helped us with the removal of junk logs that are not useful. We have a lot of firewalls, and anytime you're traversing internally inside of the firewall, it generates a lot of traffic. That kind of traffic is the type of traffic we took out, allowing us to bring our workstation traffic logs in to give us a better view of our environment.

It's very big for us that the solution is out-of-the-box. To have the solution be turnkey was significant as it enabled us to ramp up and get the logs onboarded immediately. There wasn't a lot of configuration to get to a point where we could bring logs in. It was essentially turnkey.

We use Windows Event Forwarding to collect the logs from our Windows clients, and the logs get aggregated as one data source on that collector. Therefore, finding logs specific to one particular Windows system requires some creativity in how we search the SIEM. 

I've heard that in a future release, it may come to a point where the Windows systems would be dedicated log sources, so you can choose just that log source. That would greatly improve our ability to threat hunt with our SIEM.

We've been using this LogRhythm SIEM for about three and a half years.

The solution's been very stable for us. We bought a high-availability solution, so we have two systems in a high-availability pair. That redundancy gives us resilience. It comforts us to know that if we lose one data center, we've still got logs going into our SIEM in the second data center.

The hardware we bought has the ability to process logs at twice the limit that we are licensed for, and we've not had to increase that. We've had it for three and a half years, and it's robust and keeps up with our needs.

I've had to engage LogRhythm technical support on many occasions. They've always been quick to respond and are very knowledgeable, professional, and helpful.

Positive

The previous SIEM we have was McAfee Nitro. There were a couple of reasons why we switched. We switched due to the fact that it wasn't easy to just stumble into finding things. You had to know what you're looking for and we didn't like that aspect of it. Also, we had a really bad support case that was the catalyst for making the move to a different SIEM.

We have a different setup, and we keep the SIEM in our PCI environment to limit our PCI scope. We had to think through the architecture so that we had the logs in the places we needed them without having our firewalls wide open. It was very quick to deploy since we used Windows Event Log Forwarding. We were able to use a GPO to have logs sent to a centralized server and, from there, ingested directly into the SIEM, so we were onboarded in less than a week's time. We were able to onboard the majority of our log sources quickly.

When we bought the SIEM, we bought a block of professional service hours that we utilized to help implement the SIEM. They were a tremendous help with adding dashboards and getting our fingers in it enough to where we learned our way around it before we actually even got training. It was LogRhythm professional services, and I highly recommend them. They were excellent.

We've absolutely seen an ROI. We felt it immediately since the out-of-the-box dashboards gave us visibility into our environment that we had not seen before, as we didn't have a SIEM that presented the data in a usable manner.

The license model is similar to other SIEM solutions that we looked at, which is a log volume pricing model. That pricing model works well, especially being able to filter the logs and get less important logs in so we have the ability and the headroom to put in other log sources.

We evaluated a few other options. Since we're a government entity, procurement rules limited us to just a handful of options, and of the options that we had, LogRhythm was clearly the better choice for us. 

We had the option to renew and get a refreshed McAfee SIEM, which we didn't feel good about. The other two options that we were able to use were IBM and Rapid7. IBM was just another vendor I've not had good luck with in the past. Rapid7 was a smaller player. We didn't feel they had the ecosystem, the robust ecosystem, to support what we were looking to implement.

I'm a senior security analyst. I work at a government organization that employs between 500 and 1000 people.

We are on-prem with high availability, so we have two self-contained systems, sequel logs, and everything, and they can run either box.

In terms of helping us manage workflows and cybersecurity exposure, we haven't leveraged smart responses in the SIEM. It looks like a powerful asset. We have some automated responses with a different tool for ransomware detection and prevention. However, the workflow ability in the SIEM is actually quite powerful. We just haven't leveraged it since we haven't felt that the right use case presented itself to us yet.

When it comes to affecting our rate of efficiency, we don't measure those metrics, so it's kind of hard to say there's a measurable amount or how much it's improved. It has given us a threat-hunting tool previously unavailable to us. We are very happy to have the SIEM be our primary threat-hunting tool.

Those who say SIEM is an outdated security solution should note that SIEM technology has been around for a very long time. It's still relevant thanks to the continual development that companies have done to bring more usability to extracting threats from logs. That's timeless. That's not something that's going to go away over time. The LogRhythm SIEM continues to add features, and improvements and makes finding and presenting data from raw logs easier. Digging through logs before we had a SIEM was tedious and very time-consuming. It's made it a big-time saver. To have the way it presents the logs in a usable manner has been a tremendous help for us.

I'd rate it a solid nine out of ten.

The primary use case for our LogRhythm product is to maintain PCI compliance across all of our environment. We also use it to monitor authentication and monitor our perimeter for security threats.

The product is improving our organization, giving us a lot more visibility. It also gives a lot of our smaller different IT organizations that we partner with better understanding of their environment and also a way to kind of structure the access to that data.

We are using a lot of the analytical capabilities. One of my favorite features is the AI engine that allows us to take multiple data events, tie them together in different patterns and different baselines in order to identify more complex threats in our environment.

Our security program is still pretty immature. It's a pretty immature company, we've existed for less than a year. We're growing very rapidly, we're trying to start with the foundational policy and compliance requirements that we have and trying to tie those and map those into LogRhythm. So that's gonna be our main tool to tie all that requirements into.

The most valuable feature I get out of the LogRhythm platform is being able to take machine data and present it in a format that's easy to understand, easy to analyze, easy to pivot through to get answers to the questions that I had that I'm investigating, whether they're security related or operationally related.

At this time, we're not using any of the playbooks in LogRhythm because it's currently not available in our version. However we are very excited about that feature coming out in the near future and we're definitely looking at using playbooks to do phishing, unauthorized access and our other use cases we're gonna identify in the future to make sure that our analysts are responding to the threats in similar ways and that the correct actions are being taken.

We have around 75 different types of log sources coming into the environment right now. The log source support is good, there's always room for improvement. One of the areas that LogRhythm's kind of pushing really hard right now is to integrate more cloud solutions, so your Office 365, your Azure, your AWS, making sure that those SaaS and other cloud platforms are getting the data you need into that platform. It's getting better but there's definitely still work to be done.

We currently have 3000 messages per second in our environment but we still have a number of different resorts to onboard in our tenant. So we're definitely looking to push above, probably the 7, 8000 range.

The biggest one in my mind that I want to implement is some of the AD controls. Reacting to a threat where an account password needs to be changed, or an account should be disabled, to react to that threat. Moving into first a phase where an analyst is gonna see that, review that action and then once we get comfortable, make that an automated action.

The big two big areas for improvement is TTL. Making sure that the data that we're collecting is available for a longer amount of time. So I know with some of the new releases coming in LogRhythm, that's gonna be improved which I'm really excited about. The other one that's kind of getting back to the fundamentals of why LogRhythm was chosen as a solution, being able to take your machine data, understand it, index it, classify it and give you that visibility.

I'd like to see them focus on that because there's so many different security tools being spun up these days that being able to keep up with that and having more partnerships with security vendors to make sure that security tools have new releases in their environment, they're able to keep up with those logging changes.

Stability in the LogRhythm product has been very solid for me. I'm a very experienced user, I've used the product for about five to six years now. I have a lot of administration and analyst experience with the tool. The other great feature is that LogRhythm support is really excellent, they're easy to get a hold of, they're very talented and if they aren't able to answer your question right away, they have a very good internal escalation process to get an answer to resolve your issue.

Scalability is pretty solid with LogRhythm, I know that's one of their biggest issues, is if you have a huge enterprise environment, there might be scalability issues, but for a small, medium, pretty large sized businesses, I think LogRhythm's gonna be a great tool to match that environment.

I wasn't part of the evaluation at this location, I actually took the job because I knew they had selected LogRhythm and I had the experience there. I know they did some SIEM tools comparisons with Rapid7, Splunk and QRadar which was the incumbent when evaluating LogRhythm as a replacement SIEM solution.

I was involved in the setup at our organization replacing QRadar, our previous SIEM. It was a very straightforward implementation, the TMF team at LogRhythm helped make sure we got everything deployed, gave us some examples of how to onboard the log sources and then kind of gave us a playbook to move forward and gather the rest of the data from our environment.

I'd give LogRhythm a nine out of ten because of the ease of use, especially as an analyst, being able to twist and turn all that data, drill down on it, really get an easy understand of what's going on in the environment.

From the administration side as well, it's a lot easier to use than other products that I've had and it has all the built in knowledge, whereas with some tools you dump all your data into it and it's up to you to do that classification and indexing and understanding of that data, where the value that LogRhythm's gonna provide for you is that prebuilt classification for all the data sources in your environment.

If I had a friend that was looking to implement a new SIEM solution, I would have them understand what log sources they're trying to bring into their SIEM solution and make sure that the one they chose supported those log sources. On top of that, understand your use cases that you're gonna use this SIEM for, have those ready in hand and be ready to start billing those out as you get that data in the environment.

Primary use case for the SIEM would be for log collection and threat identification.

We're still in the beginning stages of our security solution, as far as maturity. Two years ago, this security program didn't exist. 

Its benefits are broad. The solution isn't necessarily made to do any one thing, but it can do anything you tell it to. It is able to tackle any different type or size of job.

The analytics that it does.

Full-spectrum analytics capabilities, which we use for:

• User behavior.
• Watching and monitoring for login events or any anomalies. 
• Going through and watching trends. 
• Knowing what activities endpoints are doing, where they're going, what websites they visit, then making sure that they're in the normal or making sure they pick up on any outliers.

I would like to see APIs well-documented and public facing, so we can get to them all.

When it comes to a single version, it is rock solid. We haven't had any major bugs or flaws that haven't been involved with upgrading or going to another version. As long as you're on the same version, it is rock solid.

It works. The biggest thing with scalability is looking at how much data you have to ingest, so if you have to build the DX to be a specific size then you have to plan out how big its going to be. Therefore, it doesn't necessarily scale easily, but you can add additional data indexers at any point.

The technical support is very good. They are in the top two to three companies that we work with.

Its very complex. As with anything, it takes time to get it working and know all the different nomenclature with it.

I do the deployment and maintenance of the solution myself.

I have seen a measurable decrease in the mean time to detect and respond to threats. We went from not detecting them to detecting them. We can actually pick up what is anomalous in our network now.

The solution has provided us with consistency and increased staff productivity through orchestrated automated work flows by at least 20 percent. 

Our top choices were LogRhythm and Splunk. 

Splunk is a data lake that doesn't necessarily do any analytics. Whereas, with this solution, we're looking at all the analytics. We can quantify data, we can drop data, and we can do what we need to, plus the pricing model is better.

Know what you want it to do. If you buy a SIEM because its called a SIEM or someone says it's a SIEM, you're gonna end up with what someone else believes they need. Figure out what you need beforehand and make sure that those bullet points are covered because there are a lot of options.

We're currently using the built-in manual playbooks. So far, the features are very good. They are growing. I am looking forward to seeing how they expand upon it.

The automation is coming. The API access and everything else we're looking for to be able to deeply automate a lot of common tasks is still being built-in. Right now, we can do automation on simple tasks. E.g., if it sees something bad, it can take it off the network and put it in our remediation subnet. However, it does not have the capability for complex investigative actions yet.

Right now, we have about 3000 log sources and 3000 messages per second.

We are primarily Windows-based. We have Linux. We have some Solaris. We are an isolated network. We have no connectivity to the internet, so we are more focused on insider threat and advanced persistent threat. One of the things that has really been a concern is we have a lot of software developers and engineers. These guys are gonna be able to create their own threat, so the behavioral analysis function of LogRhythm is really important, because there may not be a threat signature that we can find somewhere. We are going to need to see, "Oh hey, this guy, he is doing that at some weird hour. Okay, trigger an alert." That's probably the biggest difference. We are not going to have to worry about phishing attacks. We have really locked down. Our endpoints are going to a lot of thin clients just to eliminate a lot of potential access to systems.

LogRhythm has caught a few odds and ends, where things were done for sheer convenience. It caught this weird behavior, and alerted us, and we're like, "Why do we have a DNS server with a software install point on it?", which is completely strange because we have an official software repository where everything is supposed to be. LogRhythm caught that for us, and it was really a case of a privileged user account, which was no longer active, and someone just tried to login with it. We were like, "Who is this? It's not even the same format for the username." So, it caught something like that, and it turned out to be harmless.

Maybe years ago, they had brought someone in, not an IT guy, they were pushing out a lot of common software, and they didn't have an SCCM or a WSUS solution, so they had people going to machines, and downloading it from various locations. It is something we cleaned up, and got out of the way. We haven't had anything nefarious show up, yet.

It has also been helpful for tracking a lot of stuff, like user account activity. We have our own folks, we have vendors and contractors that come in. It's great to be able to see when their accounts are being created, and when they're being locked down, because our security people can say, "Okay, this person is a new hire. We know they are supposed to be here. This person is leaving the company. Good to see their account has been locked down." There is a lot of confirmation on account activity, which is great.

We need to catch everything before it does anything bad. Our biggest challenge is we have reporting requirements with our customer. They want to see specific types of activity, and while we want to be able to provide that, we also want to be able to catch things that might be on the edge or just outside of those boundaries. So that is our biggest challenge because I can watch the industry news and see, "Oh well, we have a threat that is coming in this way now that could possibly get on our system. How do I catch that?" Well, my customer's requirements might be too vague or too specific. I have to convince them that this is also important, include it, and here is why. So keeping my customer educated as to the threats is really critical.

It gives us insight into our entire installation, where we are multiple sites, going as far as the East Coast to the Central West Coast. Our operation is small. I am a one-man shop right now, so it gives me a chance to aggregate all my events and logging, alerting, in one spot. I come in and can see exactly what is happening.

The biggest thing is when you are looking at the client console:A lot of the data, the reports that you can generate, then you are given just a pie chart, a list of data, or both. I would really love to be able to take some of that and not have to export it to a CSV file, so I can pull it into Excel to turn it into some other kind of graph. I know some of that's being handed off to the web console, but that would be the one thing that would be really helpful.

It is a little hard to get integrated.

The one thing that would help me the most, because I am sort of isolated from things, and the guides that LogRhythm puts out are really good. However, a lot of times, it is, "Do this, do this, and this works because of this, this works because you do this." I would love to see something where they show or explain why doing something would break something or wouldn't work for you. That is the one thing, because I have done some things, like created a GLPR, just done them a couple of times, and I had two of work really well, and one that seems like it should be perfect, it is just a simple exclusion, but it does not work at all.

Stability has been great.

Customer Service:

I have done a lot of good work with the account reps and engineers. It really feels like we are on the same team.

Technical Support:

Technical support has been pretty good. It has been a challenge, because we are not connected to the Internet, and when they want to get our logs, we are like, "Well, it is going to be a few days before any of it gets to you." That's our biggest challenge, but they have tried to work with us.

Overall, they have been good. They have been pretty helpful

I was not involved in the initial setup.

I would recommend talking to the rep. That's the biggest thing because they will know what questions to ask.

It does what we want, but there is so much you can do with it. It is like buying the biggest tool set you can find, then you are trying to find out, "Okay, what am I going to do with all of these tools?" Trying to tune your system with the tools that you have available is a little daunting. It was for me because I did not have the security background. If you are new, it will be a little bit daunting. The training is a big help, though.

Understand what your scope is. What are you really trying to do with this tool? If all you want to do is collect logs and pile them up somewhere on a server, this is not going to help you, and it will defeat your security goals, probably. If you are looking for something, talk to the LogRhythm rep to find out, "Okay, we are really operationally-focused. Or, we are really security-focused."

Most important criteria when selecting a vendor:

• Vendor access, which is what LogRhythm is very good at. We have got the engineers coming to us saying, "Hey, we are coming to town, is there something we can talk to you about? Do you want us to visit?"
• Very flexible.
• Really good communication is important because if something is happening, I need to be able to get it taken care of quickly, and that is what's going on.
• Scalability: It looks like it is wonderfully scalable.
• Integration: I have been interested with what I have seen with the carbon block and the endpoint stuff.

Mostly in Indonesia, LogRhythm SIEM is used by government agencies that must use the on-prem solution because of the significant requirements for SIEM solutions. It sells products as a one-time solution rather than a subscription model. Many customers sometimes forget to renew their subscription. If someone doesn’t renew the subscription, the only options that could still operate are LockSystem and Elastic. If you don’t renew the subscription, it becomes basic and loses most functions, but you can still operate the system with limited functionality. It allows full access until the last bill is paid.

Secondly, LogRhythm offers more than SIEM; it has an EDR, MDR, and XDR. Compared to its competitors, it is the most complete solution. The downside of LogRhythm is that it is slow.

LogRhythm SIEM works well, but the biggest pain point is retrieving logs using multiple filters. Even though they use Logstash from the ELK stack, it becomes very slow. LogRhythm's system uses Logstash, and while it's very fast in Elastic, it's not as quick in LogRhythm.

I have been using LogRhythm SIEM since 2022, and I worked with this solution from 2012 to 2014.

LogRhythm is very stable. The big four for SIEM—LogRhythm, Splunk, and Elastic—are all very stable. They don't have many critical incidents while performing their tasks, and almost no test incidents exist. LogRhythm’s query processing is slow.

They will provide the results, but sometimes the data takes 15 to 20 minutes, or even an hour, to display. 

Scalability depends on the two types of products. One uses virtual software, and the other is an appliance system. The virtual server is very easy to scale. We can add processing power, memory, and storage, allowing it to scale up easily since it is virtual. It’s not as scalable for the appliance because they sell appliances designed for a certain number of users and capacity. LogRhythm uses EPS, which limits the scalability of the appliance systems.

LogRhythm measures throughput in Messages Per Second, not gigabytes per second. Scaling is determined by the number of messages processed per second. While storage capacity can be increased, the appliance's performance is optimized for a specific MPS range, making it challenging to scale beyond its designed capacity. 

It is for mid-sized organizations because they don't need to scale significantly. For example, if they only need 10,000 MPS or 5,000 MPS, the appliance is sufficient for their requirements without further scaling.

I rate the solution an eight out of ten.

LogRhythm had a strong presence in Indonesia between 2012 and 2014, with excellent support. From 2022 until now, their regional office has been in Singapore. If support is needed, it typically goes through a distributor. For more complex issues, we must contact Singapore for assistance. Getting LogRhythm personnel to come to Indonesia can be challenging, and arranging an on-site visit usually requires significant effort.

Positive

The initial setup is easy because LogRhythm has the most out-of-the-box integrations with Penitin. If I have a firewall, they have an out-of-the-box connection with it. If I have a switch, router, or another system, they also have out-of-the-box connections with those. It's very easy to use LogRhythm's system.

IBM QRadar is the most expensive SIEM solution, followed by LogRhythm and Splunk, which are also on the higher end in pricing. LogRhythm and Elastic are more affordable options. Elastic is open-source, making it a cost-effective choice.

LogRhythm stands out because it offers a perpetual license, meaning renewing it annually is unnecessary. Over a long period, such as five years, this makes it a cheaper option since the license does not need renewal.

LogRhythm's AI engine assist is good enough. Everyone talking about threat hunting mostly mentions continuous virtual assessment or vulnerability management. The guard will allow some people in and stop others based on their knowledge. If the SIEM determines that a person is eligible to enter, they will allow it; if not, they will stop them. 

Overall, I rate the solution a seven out of ten.

LogRhythm SIEM is primarily utilized for cybersecurity analysis and incident management.

Its most valuable features include robust dashboards and effective alerts. I find LogRhythm's log management capabilities to be beneficial.    

We integrate multiple credentials and feeds from various sources to enrich customer data. However, we haven't extensively explored its capabilities for compliance reporting as it hasn't been a priority for our clients.

Regarding identifying potential security incidents, LogRhythm's preconfigured alerts are quite effective in detecting vulnerabilities. As for the impact of LogRhythm's log management capacity on security posture, it largely depends on the deployment type. The analytics and intelligence features, particularly the correlation functionalities, have proven valuable in catching complex cyber security threats.

I have been using LogRhythm SIEM for 1.5 years.

We haven't encountered any significant problems, so it effectively keeps our processes running smoothly. I'd rate it an eight. It's generally stable, though we haven't faced any major stability issues.

I'd give it a 6 because appliance-based setups can sometimes pose scalability issues, but otherwise, it's fine. 

We have specialists, and whenever we need technical support, we can easily get it.

Positive

LogRhythm SIEM is a factor in our capabilities, particularly for incident response and insurance management.

The incident response times have improved since implementing LogRhythm SIEM.

On a scale of one to ten, I'd rate the pricing of this solution as a seven - not too expensive but not cheap either.

Regarding licensing costs, it varies depending on factors like being a partner or an end user, but there are no additional costs aside from standard licensing fees for the basic SIEM solution.

My advice for someone considering implementing LogRhythm SIEM would be to start with proper controls and understand the value it provides.

Before installing the solution, users should consider factors like EPS calculations and endpoint support to ensure proper sizing, especially if not going for an appliance.

Overall, I'd rate this product an 8 and would recommend it to others due to its cost-effectiveness, value for money, and user-friendly nature.
