AnkurSharma3 - PeerSpot reviewer
Cyber SOC Manager at Tower Research Capital
Offers data models that learn the patterns and behavior of the internal network
I really like the artificial intelligence feature that utilizes automated versioning through AI Yellow Prism. It has a lot of data models that learn the patterns and behavior of the internal network. If something abnormal happens, it raises a flag or alert. The GUI control interface was good and very attractive, and setting up the tool was easy with the help of online articles. Customization was also possible for each department.

Information Technology Manager at ProfitSolv
The SOC center monitors, hunts, and notifies us of threats around the clock
I know they are working to resolve this issue, but Netsurion is currently unable to retrieve logs from S3 buckets. We use WP Engine for a lot of web hosting as well as AWS, and both of these platforms use S3 buckets. I would like Netsurion to be able to pull logs from Linux devices. We have some of that capability, and I believe they can do it. However, the way it works with Amazon is strange and glitchy. Therefore, working something out with Amazon would be great. Netsurion's SOC can be a bit too aggressive at times. We have asked them to adjust their playbook because I am tired of being notified about the same issue multiple times a day. I am aware of the issue, and it is not a cause for concern. Let's only take action on this issue if we see an actual problem.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Advanced threat intelligence reports have enabled each department to coordinate roles and put security measures in place."
"We get analysis and can take into consideration the critical alerts found at any time, which gives us security and stability."
"The most outstanding characteristic that we can see is having something in place that allows any network administrator to apply security policies throughout the company's network."
"It was easily configured and offered one more layer of security in our environment as the monitoring provided by the dashboard is very complete."
"We have not seen a security capacity equal to that of Check Point in other manufacturers."
"It's a small investment to protect our largest investment which is the assets, both physical and virtual, shielding us from attacks and making it possible for us to operate seamlessly and with full confidence."
"The reports it shares with the IT team provide the feedback necessary to see what needs to change and what needs to continue to be done."
"The real-time intelligence was a good feature."
"I think Netsurion scales well. We've gone from a small number of agents up to thousands. So I would imagine that it would continue to scale. I don't see any issue with that."
"Netsurion's 24/7 monitoring has enhanced the overall security of the company."
"We don't have the eyeballs available to stare and watch for things, or even have the capability of building internal alert systems. So, the managed SOC has been huge for freeing up staff to work on other responsibilities. We are saving on at least one full-time employee."
"When I looked last week, we probably averaged about 20 million log entries a day. So, we certainly can't individually manage that. Just looking at the reports, then trying to go back and find anything that was questionable, was a challenge. Therefore, the managed service has been invaluable to us in terms of being able to narrow the scope of what really needs to be looked at and bringing those things to our attention to be dealt with."
"Their SOC team manages vulnerability management and IOC reviews. They stop bad processes when they happen. The best thing is their weekly reviews of what has been going on in the infrastructure as well as the things that they see and what we should look out for."
"The product satisfies our compliance, and thus, all of our auditors."
"The managed service is great value which saves you a full-time employee on your staff by being able to outsource it to EventTracker to review all the logs and cull through the data to make recommendations and identify threats, then how to remediate them."
"Netsurion's 24/7 monitoring has enhanced the overall security of the company. They have someone looking at the data 24/7 who will call us as needed. If their team spots a malicious process after hours, they notify the appropriate person by phone. We get a lot of actionable threat intelligence from Netsurion. For example, if a user clicks on a malicious link in a web page and starts an unusual process that isn't on the white-list, Netsurion's team can detect it and prevent it from executing. Afterward, they'll notify us by telephone, so we can respond and clean up whatever damage has occurred."
 

Cons

"I would like for the service to be a little more accessible for all segments."
"The only issue I encountered was with mobile device integration and compatibility with on-premise solutions."
"We want better customization."
"Sometimes we can see the documentation and follow its instructions to apply a new rule or policy, and sometimes we don't get the expected result by following them."
"The next release should have threat indicators that categorize various types of threats and their immediate solution."
"One of the great improvements that must be improved is the support for end users."
"The documentation for the most modern applications of the manufacturer is sometimes not well done or complete."
"The MITRE ATT&CK framework could be faster when identifying and understanding sophisticated threats. Whenever something happens, we usually get notified a couple hours later."
"Using Netsurion has not meant we have consolidated cybersecurity technologies."
"I would also like to have a dashboard that I can access anytime to review the real-time data from their website."
"We get a report generated on a particular day of the week and we go through it, trying to mitigate problems and make sure we're seeing everything that's happening. It would be helpful if the SOC spent a little more time with us going through some of those reports."
"I would like to see a faster response when we see things like 15,000 lockouts."
"I'd like to see improvement in the ease of generating reports. It seems fairly cumbersome whenever you decide to start tracking new categories of events. It seems a little kludgy when trying to generate those reports."
"Netsurion's SOC can be a bit too aggressive at times."
"The system requirements are very, very high. So I need a pretty powerful server to run. If they could lighten that load so that the on-premise part of their product didn't impact my systems as much that would be ideal."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"Netsurion's pricing is extremely fair and flexible. The price of their SIEM product is reasonable, and you can pay for those services you want on top of that. It wasn't cheap, but it's competitive, and we intend to renew our contract."
"EventTracker's subscription-based model is interesting as far as yearly license type stuff. It's nice because you know what it's going to be next year. We haven't really looked at any other solutions. The pricing at the time compared to the other solutions was a lot less. A couple of years ago, we actually looked at Splunk. The amount in Splunk's licensing model is based on 20 gigs a day, or something like that. Based on our number of logs and stuff that we were already generating, the costs would be substantially more for the amount of logs that we would be getting."
"Our budget follows the calendar year. We just started a new budget year at the beginning of the month. We did budget for an increase in our threat management system selection. Therefore, we have the budget to implement and accommodate a threat management system change, including an increase for the quoted actions that we received to improve EventTracker. We are just waiting on our council to approve that budget, which might not be for a little while. Hopefully, when they do, we will be able to jump on doing something."
"In the security space, it's hard to quantify your return on investment. So, I don't. We spend about $40,000 a year and so. It's hard to say if the SIEM saved that much money."
"The solution is fairly expensive, but in my experience, all of the SIEM applications that I've evaluated or looked at cost about the same."
"We put together the package of what we needed. It was based pretty much on the number of agents that we were deploying. If we needed to manage logging from certain specific applications, like Active Directory and SQL Server, there has been no additional cost for that. We had agents deployed for those specific servers and the applications were included, then there was just an additional installation that they had to do for us."
"The upfront costs have increased, and we have been locked into this contract. The cost of changing over from it is way too high."
"Licensing is very easy. Our CIO takes care of the billing, but in terms of price point, he hasn't complained, so it must be good."
