Enables automated threat intelligence sorting and enhances proactive threat hunting capabilities
You have to have at least a threat intelligence background or a SOC analyst background to use it, as that's the information you'll dig around with in there. If you don't have that kind of knowledge, it probably can be a little hard to use, but they do provide training. They offer training not only for how to use the platform but also some basic threat intelligence training to explain what these things are and what these terms mean. My company is a customer of Anomali. I would recommend it to other people. I would advise making sure you don't pick it without testing other products and have your use cases well thought out and documented before testing, so you know it will solve the problems you're trying to address. Keep an open mind with it and realize that whatever you can dream of, you can probably do with the platform. Overall, I would rate Anomali an eight out of ten.

Good filtering and reporting tools but can be difficult to use
It can scale as needed. It's not a problem. There are different teams using it. We have CSOC, which is internal, which is onshore, then we have a security operations center that is offshore, which would be in India. The onshore team might be a group of three, and the offshore might be a group of five. Likely, we have eight to ten people in total using the product directly.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We now have a very robust collection of threat intelligence based on the capabilities that Anomali provides."
"The most valuable aspect of Anomali is the threat modeling capability."
"The feature I have found most valuable is credential monitoring. This feature is easy and quick."
"I have found Cyber threat intelligence (CTI) very useful and concise. The solution is easy to use."
"The ability to correlate different logs is the solution's most valuable feature."
"ArcSight Analytics is used to get a deeper insight and threat analysis about the network."
"This solution makes it easy to create use cases, and it is easy to move queries from use cases to the report to the dashboard."
"The most valuable feature is the log monitoring."
"One of the most valuable features is the alerts."
"This solution allows us to identify connections for all users."
"The correlation engine is good."
"ArcSight Analytics has improved our system and network policy monitoring."
 

Cons

"Support in the past has been top-notch, but recent trends indicate that it has taken a back seat, as we often don't get answers for days."
"An area for improvement is the intelligence sharing within the Anomali community. The tagging system can be inconsistent, as any company can use any tags for their reporting."
"A lot of tools can give you many features, such as CTI intelligence and a tax service reduction. However, many people are combining different tools together to have more capabilities. It is up to the consumer whether they want to have multiple tools or have one tool that serves the purpose. Anomali Enterprise could improve by combining all the other tools' features into one solution."
"Less code in integration would be nice when building blocks."
"Network integration is very crucial, and you need to have the knowledge to get it done."
"Their support team could be better."
"ArcSight's features that can be improved include anything related to its visualization capabilities and user friendliness."
"It's a difficult product to navigate, it's complex."
"Currently, there are no compatible connectors for this solution, which means we have to depend on FlexConnectors."
"The interactive dashboard is complicated and you need to have training in order to use it, so I think that it could be made easier to use."
"I would like to see orchestration."
"The GUI interface is not always intuitive and easy for non-technical users to work with."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"When comparing the price of Anomali Enterprise to other solutions it is in the medium to high range. However, I am satisfied with the price."
"My customers pay a yearly licensing fee for ArcSight Analytics."
"ArcSight Analytics is a bit expensive compared with other tools in terms of licensing costs, training, hardware implementation, and support."
"It can range between $30,000 and $40,000 USD, and can go up to $500,000 and $600,000 USD."
"In addition to the costs of standard licensing fees, there is the cost of labor for maintenance."
"This solution is expensive."
"The monthly licensing fee is around $20,000. There aren't any costs in addition to the standard licensing fee."
