Featured Reviews

Peter Nowak - PeerSpot reviewer
Integration of multiple firewalls enables advanced threat detection
The integration of data from firewalls and Active Directory is most valuable. Cybereason XDR facilitates two-way communication, where the firewall sends data to the Cybereason system, and it can communicate with the firewall to stop unwanted communication. Customers can deal with multiple types of firewalls with ease. The behavioral analytics help detect advanced threats when attackers use existing software. The multilayered protection approach, including NGAV, integrates XDR detection with antivirus to assess and counter threats effectively.
Sheikh Abu Ayub Azad - PeerSpot reviewer
Great at managing cyber incidents; the technical support could be improved
The initial setup is easy, partly because LogRhythm is primarily based on the Windows platform. It's good to have two engineers for deployment but it can be done with one. It's more about the knowledge. Deployment is typically done in two or three different phases. It usually takes up to three full months to get good deployment. There's the initial onboarding of all the log sources, then collecting data in the data lake, followed a couple of weeks later with some minor tuning before the final tuneup.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Cybereason XDR's most useful feature is the investigation."
"The integration of data from firewalls and Active Directory is most valuable."
"The integration of data from firewalls and Active Directory is most valuable."
"The solution has an investigation feature, which is useful for building storylines."
"The solution is useful for privilege accounts and super admin accounts. It is beneficial from a security perspective. The tool uses machine learning rather than threshold-based alerts. For instance, it can detect unusual user logins, such as a user logging in from a new browser or location."
"The tool's most valuable feature is server threat hunting."
"It is easy to monitor users and that is how the solution is adding value to our firm."
"I typically use the product for reducing cyber risk, and I can investigate attacks more quickly using machine learning tools."
"LogRhythm UEBA’s best feature is the dashboard. It provides several graphs, charts, and event logs."
"I can investigate attacks more quickly using machine learning tools."
"What I like most about LogRhythm UEBA is that it allows you to identify and analyze end-user behaviors and suspicious activities within the systems."
"The most valuable features are file activity monitoring and registry activity monitoring."
 

Cons

"Customer service is rated as a five out of ten. When they work and reach the right level, they are helpful, but getting to the right person can be time-consuming."
"The one thing we sometimes have issues with is its integration with other security applications like antiviruses."
"There could be more integrations with other data sources like NDR systems."
"Cybereason's customer support could be better."
"The search feature needs to be improved."
"The product could be user-friendly for someone who doesn’t have any prior experience working with it."
"LogRhythm UEBA's data aggregation needs to be improved. Open-source users do not have much documentation available. Documentation is available only for enterprise users."
"The on-premises LogRhythm is not very scalable. When considering packets per second or the MPS needed for additional logs such as web application logs, scalability is usually found in cloud products."
"The product should improve its dashboards. Splunk has neat dashboards. Additionally, we would like to enhance the use cases provided by LogRhythm as its use case library is not as extensive as other tools. Its machine-learning capabilities need to improve when compared to other solutions. It lacks risk quantification in a single, transparent view for individuals such as CSOs."
"The cloud version is lacking and not up to par."
"The UI could be improved a little bit."
"In general, if something needs to be improved in the algorithm, it would be the dashboards."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is cheaper than Microsoft Defender. It has a subscription and no standard license."
"As LogRhythm UEBA is pretty expensive, I'd give its pricing a seven out of ten."
"The pricing is nice when compared to other products in the industry."
"It is quite a budget-friendly product."
"LogRhythm UEBA's pricing is affordable for small and medium businesses."
"I rate the product's pricing a three out of ten. However, the cloud version is expensive. You need to hire professional services for deployment and migrations, which can be expensive."
"Licensing is on a yearly basis. It's not expensive compared to its competitors."
