Has helped identify misconfigurations and prioritize risks but lacks multi-cloud support and deeper integration features

AWS Security Hub cannot scale up to multiple different cloud environments; it only works for AWS. There are other products in the market for CSPM that can give you multi-cloud environment misconfigurations, even Microsoft for that matter. Regarding the integration of AWS Security Hub with third-party tools, I am not certain whether we can integrate them, but there is no need to do so. However, AWS Security Hub cannot integrate with other cloud providers, so it only supports the AWS environment. The compliance checks within AWS Security Hub are good, but we don't use them much. We utilize compliance frameworks such as CIS compliance frameworks and ISO 27017 framework, which are beneficial, but it can improve in other areas too, such as including NIST and other frameworks beyond just ISO and CIS. Improvements can be applicable for scalability, particularly on integration with multi-cloud environments, and compliance frameworks can be added for more variety as well. The unified dashboard in AWS Security Hub is adequate; I cannot say it is exceptional, but the content available in the dashboards is satisfactory for now.

Provides strong detection capabilities but requires improvements in parsing and stability

I cannot think of any specific features that LogRhythm SIEM can improve upon since it supports a wide variety of major vendors. However, they need to improve their parsing techniques; the tool should understand various devices and present data in a human-readable format. For example, if a personal Android mobile needs to be integrated, LogRhythm SIEM should be able to parse that data effectively. They also need to improve their database of supported devices to cover smaller vendors alongside the major players, allowing for better global reach and usability. I have noticed some problems with parsing errors, event mismatches, and data mismatching, so ensuring accurate parsing and continuous improvement according to device updates are my basic expectations as a detection engineer.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Currently, our organization utilizes AWS for various purposes, including SaaS (Software as a Service), PaaS (Platform as a Service), and hosting applications in the cloud. We develop our applications and use AWS services as a platform for basic functions and secondary development needs. Additionally, we rely on PaaS for accounting services. Approximately, 50% of our applications are hosted in the cloud environment, making it a significant part of our current setup."

"AWS Security Hub brings many features into one table that is quite useful, and the app team finds it easier to see what is missing."

"AWS Security Hub can check your infrastructure against multiple compliance frameworks. You can turn on or off specific frameworks based on your needs."

"Security Hub provides insightful information about what is running and where there might be weaknesses."

"The most beneficial aspect of Security Hub is its proactive capability, allowing us to identify potential security issues before they escalate."

"It's a security posture management tool from AWS. Basically, it identifies misconfigurations, similar to Trusted Advisor but on a larger scale."

"Within AWS Security Hub, there is a feature for aggregating and prioritizing security findings which allows for better risk prioritization based on misconfiguration, as they know AWS thoroughly."

"The platform has valuable features for security."

More AWS Security Hub pros

"Currently, we are in the implementation phase. LogRhythm is better than QRadar from the point of view of collecting Windows events. It has a much higher view. You can enable monitoring by default."

"As a security organization, our challenges are discovering where our data is at, most times, and protecting it, and just having everything in a single space has been very helpful."

"The fact we're able to create customized monitoring reports that extract info from event logs helps us a lot."

"LogRhythm SIEM's automated response capabilities help organizations mitigate threats through alerts based on specific use cases and monitoring requirements."

"The initial setup is pretty easy."

"All in all, it's one of the best SIEMs, as a total package, that I've worked with."

"It's reliable and the performance is good."

"LogRhythm NextGen SIEM covers all our primary security analysis needs, makes it easier for us to analyze threats and improves our response times, and is a versatile platform that performs queries fast compared to other SIEM solutions."

More LogRhythm SIEM pros

Cons

"I would like a more fine-grained capability for creating custom rules and a more user-friendly experience programmatically in writing queries and configuring custom security rules, making it quicker and easier."

"AWS Security Hub's configuration and integration are areas where it lacks and needs to improve."

"Shortening the response time for support tickets, particularly in production issues, could make the service more efficient."

"The user interface, graphs, and dashboards of the solution could improve in the future. They are not very sophisticated and could use an update."

"The solution is not wholly self-sufficient."

"From an improvement perspective, there is a need to add more compliance since, right now, AWS Security Hub only provides four to five compliances to control the tool."

"The solution should be easier to learn and use"

"It is not flexible for multi-cloud environments."

More AWS Security Hub cons

"Granted, we haven't enabled the UEBA module, but we're forwarding all our proxy logs to LogRhythm and we have a really hard time pulling those proxy logs back out of LogRhythm."

"Sometimes the error-logging is not altogether helpful. There have been many times where I've been disappointed, where I'll ramp an agent up to Verbose and it will say, "LogRhythm critical error, the agent won't bind to a NIC," or the like, and I end up with no really actionable or identifiable information coming in, even though I've ramped up the logging level."

"LogRhythm NextGen SIEM could improve by adding more applications for the banking sector. There are not any custom applications at this time."

"I think a must-have feature would be better reporting. The reports do not provide information such as, who are your top ten end users generating the most activity within the environment, or appliances, per se, so that's very limited."

"My big thing is the easability. I don't like to go to two different systems."

"Then, there is whole mention of hot versus warm and being able to keep data because SecondLook is terrible."

"If there are interruptions in the data downloads or hosts that don't report to LogRhythm from the CDE, the utility of the LogRhythm Reports declines dramatically."

"One of the challenges of the SIEM for the LogRhythm 7 platform is the amount of time it takes to bring new log sources into the MDI."

More LogRhythm SIEM cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"There are multiple subscription models, like yearly, monthly, and packaged."

"The price of the solution is not very competitive but it is reasonable."

"The price of AWS Security Hub is average compared to other solutions."

"AWS Security Hub's pricing is pretty reasonable."

"Security Hub is not an expensive solution."

"AWS Security Hub is not an expensive tool. I would consider it to be a cheap solution. AWS Security Hub follows the PAYG pricing model, meaning you will have to pay for whatever you use."

"The cost is based on the number of compliances, core checks, and services required, and for more than 10,000 recommendations, the charge is just one dollar."

"The pricing is fine. It is not an expensive tool."

"The license cost is around $10 per MPS."

"When it comes time to renew, they say, "This is what you are using. This is what we can do for you." So, they work with you on pricing."

"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."

"NextGen SIEM's pricing is moderate."

"Look closely at the cost of licensing of other products. This should include setups and the need for support services. I did a RFQ to 2 other vendors before choosing this product."

"I think the tool is reasonably priced. There is a need to pay per year towards the licensing costs of the tool."

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

"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."
