Splunk Enterprise Security and DNIF HYPERCLOUD compete in the security intelligence market. Splunk appears to have an advantage due to its advanced analytics and comprehensive data integration, offering superior real-time insights and operational intelligence.

Features: Splunk Enterprise Security provides robust data ingestion capabilities, real-time security insights, and excels in log management with schema-on-read technology. It offers powerful correlation across disparate data sources beneficial for compliance and incident response. DNIF HYPERCLOUD is noted for handling large EPS volumes with a cost-effective, open-source infrastructure. Its User Entity Behavior Analytics supports emergency response systems efficiently.

Room for Improvement: Splunk could enhance integration with various security devices and improve the user permissions system. Its cluster and search head management could benefit from GUI support instead of command-line interactions.

Development from open sources is very valuable but a huge infrastructure is required
The solution's command line should be simpler so that routine commands can be used. The search configuration is a bit different than other OEMs or SIEM solutions like ArcSight or QRadar that are easy to search because they operate similarly. The logic is there and the solution supplies a pretty good explanation. Basically, DNIF spelled out is the opposite of FIND. You have to find commands whenever you want to search something. For example, a highway gets you to your destination but there is an alternate way people don't yet know about. Gartner or Forrester haven't yet studied it. We were a bit nervous when we were trying to get familiar with the solution. We wondered if we could realize ROI because the commands and ways of pulling data were different to us. We raised a case with the support team and their professionals provided the needed support. The command line is user friendly once you understand it. If you need immediate use, then you might want to get assistance from someone who is well-versed in methods for using key patterns to find things. Lengthier files for threat hunting or analysis are needed. The correlation happens, but exporting a large number of files to abstract them is not possible. For example, I want to present raw data to management so I should be able to customize a date range in my query and download the files.

Helps us detect cyber threats quickly and integrate multiple feeds effectively
Overall, the product is good, but when it comes to some infrastructure issues, we have to dig into more logs. There is no straightforward indication of an issue. Health check kind of dashboards are not available. More AI would help us, and more optimization, since security products run more queries. The AI module could suggest solutions, optimizing queries or workload balancing. If the product itself advises on running queries during peak times, it would be similar to what ChatGPT currently offers. We see quite a few issues on stability. Even last week, we faced something, and identifying bottlenecks is not easy. We need more SMEs, and there is no mechanism to tell us about indexer or search head issues. Self-monitoring dashboards could be beneficial. The technical support still requires more improvement. Often, primary support takes a lot of time and forwards most solutions to the engineering side. The primary support team has very limited knowledge to provide.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Has a great search capability."
"The User Behavior Analytics is a built-in threat-hunting feature. It detects and reports on any kind of malware or ransomware that enters the network."
"The beauty of the solution is that you can develop infrastructure for a data lake using open sources that are separate from the licenses."
"I like the MITRE table, a feature I saw for the first time in the same solution. There was one MITRE tactic table, which can be used to identify threats if you have all kinds of rules enabled or if you have rules for all the tactics in the MITRE table. There are 14 tables in MITRE, and those 14 tables consist of multiple columns, tactics, and techniques. It was one of the first SIEM tools I saw that had that particular MITRE table. On that basis, you can create new rules and identify existing ones. At any point, if an alert is triggered, it will try to match it to any of those MITRE tactics. I liked that creating a workbook on MITRE business was straightforward. I also like that you can search using SQL or DQL."
"Great for scaling productivity for log monitoring purposes."
"The solution is quite stable and offers good performance. It also works on a virtual machine. We haven't found any issues with it so far. It's been reliable."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is the number of EPS it can handle."
"The dashboard is helpful, and it creates visualizations to let staff review event data and identify patterns and anomalies."
More DNIF HYPERCLOUD pros
"It helps us uncover bottlenecks in the network."
"I really appreciate the all-integrated SIEM feature of Splunk Enterprise Security, which serves as a one-stop shop to get all security tasks done."
"Splunk is quite flexible for our customers. Splunk does not filter from a specific lock, you can define it later."
"I would definitely recommend Splunk Enterprise Security because if you are really concerned about security and want to follow compliance rules, this product is really helpful."
"I have noticed a return on investment with Splunk Enterprise Security, as it delivers substantial value for money."
"The search function for spam is like a google search. You just enter and it will quickly show you the results."
"Splunk provides immediate visibility into key business metrics and new business insights that deliver immediate value."
"What I appreciate about Splunk Enterprise Security is creating the newest SPL for network traffic and using the risk-based alerting feature that helps my organization by allowing me to learn more information about Splunk every day because it is a big platform."
More Splunk Enterprise Security pros
 

Cons

"There are currently some issues with machine learning plug-ins."
"The solution should be able to connect to endpoints, such as desktops and laptops... If this solution had a smart connector to these logs- Windows, Linux, or any other logs - without affecting the performance of the connector, that would be wonderful."
"The vendor is fairly new and it's not as big as some of the international competitors. It's not a mature product. If you ask them to move data, it might take a lot of time."
"I think DNIF HYPERCLOUD can implement the ability to export more than 100,000. At the moment, we can't go beyond that. So many times, if you're checking for the firewall logs and working on something related to authentication or network-related traffic, while that log count is low, the account goes beyond that. You can't restrict the logs or the amount of data you can export. It's very important for my situation. It would be better if they could increase the capacity of exports. Although there are many more types of searching in DNIF HYPERCLOUD, people still struggle to query out what they want because not everyone is good at SQL or DQL. The easiest way to query out in DNIF is using the GUI-based interface. But in the GUI interface, you can use operator calls. It gets tricky when you want to search for a specific type of event. You don't know where it will be passed and whether it will be consistent. In the initial phase, it's tough for us to use DNIF. You cannot pass every event in a stable DNIF. When we used that particular tool, we used to get those logs, but sometimes many things are not getting passed. So, we used to export the sheet or export the data into Excel and weigh the required details. In the next release, I would like them to improve the export of the columns and make the application more user-friendly. I would also like a threat-hunting feature in the next release."
"The EBA could be improved."
"The solution's command line should be simpler so that routine commands can be used."
"Dependency on the DNIF support team was frustrating."
"I feel that DNIF needs to invest more in marketing, considering that it operates at a very competitive speed."
"It currently has limited default rules and customizations. If they can concentrate more on the compliance part and the security information part, it would be helpful. The platform part is good, but it requires many features from the security aspect."
"At Splunk .conf24, I saw a demo for Splunk Enterprise Security 8. All the things that they have done in Splunk Enterprise Security 8 are what it can be better at."
"Its user interface for everything other than the charts can be improved. Some parts of it can be simplified a bit, such as when importing documents that have the network traffic. When you're going through the information about the network traffic, you have to have the expertise, but even if a program is supposed to be for IT support, it is good to make it user-friendly because it gets easier to train people. When something goes wrong, the more difficult a program is in terms of UI, the harder it is to fix the issue."
"In terms of the interface, it could include some improvements for the look and feel."
"AngularJS/ReactJS inclusion could be made easier in GUI."
"It can be tough to get a hold of somebody in technical support depending on the complexity of the issue."
"The solution is expensive."
"Splunk is not very user-friendly. It has a complex architecture in comparison to other solutions on the market."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is based on the log size."
"The solution requires a huge infrastructure and that is costly."
"Price-wise, the product is quite economical. I rate the solution's price as three or four on a scale of one to ten, where one is considered to be a very economically priced tool."
"We have seen ROI and improvements as we have continued to use the product, but they are more reactive."
"Splunk is definitely not a cheap solution. It is an expensive product."
"The tool's licensing is good and we haven't received any complaints from the team handling it."
"The price of Splunk is reasonable."
"Splunk Enterprise Security is cheaper than competitors, but I do not know whether it is just our contract."
"Splunk's cost is very high. They need to review the pricing. They have to go back and totally readdress the market."
"Splunk Enterprise Security is not at all cost-friendly to be deployed in very small enterprises like start-ups."
"The pricing is based on the volume of data fed into it, which can lead to substantial costs. This pricing model is complex and unpredictable, making cost management difficult."
