Compliance and cost-effectiveness have improved while critical infrastructure security adapts to evolving needs
ArcSight Logger fulfills compliance requirements and passes audit requirements. It is one of the Aramco standards requirements and is recommended by Aramco for any implementation. Aramco, SABIC, water companies, and electricity companies are critical infrastructure with air-gapped networks. In an air-gapped network, there is no communication going out from that network area to the outside world, even to the corporate network. ArcSight Logger is installed on minimal resources with minimal requirements. There are not many upgrades or new features that come up frequently, though they do occur occasionally.

Real-time monitoring and analytics are very easy and fast and very easy to use
The alerting and real-time analytics helped the security team. They are using a Hadoop database, so real-time monitoring and analytics are very easy and fast. Queries return results quickly and in very small time. It has full automation and automated SIEM responses. We are currently only testing Logsign, but in a few months, we plan to integrate our servers, routers, firewalls, and endpoints into our company's Logsign instance. Then, we can manage everything using Logsign.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It's a robust, mature product and you can do some really complex operations and analytics."
"As the name suggests, it's a brilliant log collection tool, and it can handle hundreds of thousands of servers in a single shot to ingest the data."
"I think where Logger shines is usability."
"It is one of the best products available in the market."
"ArcSight provides the basic information that we want."
"The technical support team is good...It is a scalable solution."
"The most important thing is the scalability of the product and its ease of use."
"It's an efficient solution."
"It has full automation and automated SIEM responses."
"Logsign provides sample logs within the product, allowing users to see how logs will appear before integration, which is a valuable feature for testing and understanding log formats."
"The most valuable features of Logsign SIEM are its cloud capabilities, alerting functionality, integration with Elastic Search, and configuration options."
 

Cons

"Using the ArcSight Logger dashboard is not particularly intuitive or efficient, so it is important to be trained in its use."
"They are migrating to Splunk because ArcSight Logger doesn't have those features for user or customer behavior analysis."
"The speed of Logger indexing and searching for certain bugs for some queries that we provide could be improved. It can handle a huge number of logs but it can be improved."
"You have limited reporting capabilities and I wouldn't choose ArcSight Logger for this purpose."
"The only thing I did not particularly like about the product was its speed on the web interface."
"The platform is quite expensive. They should reduce its cost."
"The initial setup was a bit complicated to follow since there are many different components present within it."
"It's not a new product and is a bit complex. So, it requires a person dedicated to working on it and to know about it in and out. It is a huge product, and the search operation is a bit complicated for a new user or someone who has not used it for long. So for that person, it becomes a bit difficult."
"Improvements needed in Logsign SIEM are providing specific security alerts that can be filtered and configured more effectively."
"I hope they address the pricing model for Logsign Next-Gen SIEM, especially regarding regional variations. The pricing should not differ based on the country of operation as it can lead to dissatisfaction among customers. A fixed pricing structure would be more favorable for us. I would also suggest enhancing the GUI interface and adding features similar to xFi Exchange from IBM Pure. This would streamline operations and save time for analysts."
"AI and machine learning need to be developed. If they develop those features, I think everything will be fine."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"ArcSight Logger is very expensive compared to their competitors, but when we talk to the customer and explain what the features are and how we can scale, they understand. Still, ArcSight is more expensive than the competition."
"ArcSight is an expensive solution."
"I rate the product’s pricing a seven out of ten, where one is inexpensive, and ten is expensive."
"I would rate the product a seven out of ten since it's an enterprise product."
"The pricing is quite harsh."
"It's not cheap at all as it's a big product and has been in the market for quite some time now."
"We have a lifetime license, so we don't pay a monthly fee."
"Pricing is reasonable compared to similar tools on the market. They offer perpetual licenses."
"Compared to other SIEMs, it has low pricing."
