Has improved threat detection with deep log analysis and streamlined investigation workflows
The most useful features I find in Elastic Security are the forensic ones that allow us to carry deeper analysis into the logs for in-depth investigations, and the dashboards, with the reporting dashboard being quite user-friendly. Elastic Security is quite good at identifying threats, as it is part of the deep investigation tool that I mentioned before. Unless we need to look further into a certain log, we can carry out a deeper analysis and forensics on those particular logs. I can assess the impact of Elastic Security's real-time data analysis on our threat response efficiency as working pretty good. We are looking for real-time analysis because we have a continuous inflow of logs from different sources: from our cloud, from Active Directory, from our network. So it works pretty well.

Great for PCI compliance but issues with stability and large amounts of data
I mainly use this solution to meet PCI compliance The automation of compliance reports and the correlation of the log have been major improvements.  The most valuable feature is the predefined reports for PCI compliance. The correlation suite needs to be improved. I also think they need to…

"This is one of the best open-source log management and log analyzer tools in the world."
"Elastic Security offers advanced features such as machine learning and integration with ChatGPT."
"The most valuable features of the solution are the prevention methods and the incident alerts."
"The FIM features in the Change Tracker and the Log Tracker are the most valuable."
"The automation of compliance reports and the correlation of the log have been major improvements."
"The most valuable feature is the predefined reports for PCI compliance."
"If you want to deploy a SIEM and you want it to be simple, and not deal with much maintenance or help from the OEM, then I would say that NNT is the one."
"File integrity monitoring is a very important function."
"The Change Tracker tool is very good and will reduce your overall workload."
"This is a very easy-to-use interface with a quick ramp-up time."
"Customer Service: The service we've seen from NNT to date has been extraordinarily good."
 

Cons

"The documentation for this solution is very important, and more needs to be developed."
"I think maybe on the last exercise part, I think the index rotation can be improved. It's something that they need to work on."
"The solution's query building is not that intuitive compared to other solutions."
"The solution needs to be more reactive to investigations. We need to be able to detect and prevent any attacks before it can damage our infrastructure."
"It is difficult to anticipate and understand the space utilization, so more clarity there would be great."
"The tool needs to integrate with legacy servers. Big companies can have legacy servers that may not always be updated."
"It's a little bit of a learning curve to understand the logic of searching for things and trying to find what you're looking for in Elastic Security."
"One thing they could add is a quick step to enable users who don't have a solid background to build a dashboard and quickly search, without difficulty."
"Only one minor deployment issue came up and it was resolved quickly. No other areas of improvement come to mind yet."
"For the NNT Log Tracker and Change Tracker, they have to make their knowledge base available online because there is very little information available on the internet."
"The correlation suite needs to be improved."
"I would like to see the integration of AI technology, so rather than manually monitoring the logs, the tool will understand it and take care of it."
"There are some issues with the stability - the correlation engine has failed multiple times, and the reports sometimes take too long, so we have to involve the tech team to get them."
"It is able to identify the vulnerability, however, they need an option to auto-mitigate."
"It is able to identify the vulnerability, however, they need an option to auto-mitigate."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I find it better than Splunk in terms of cost-effectiveness. For cost-effectiveness, I would rate it a nine out of 10."
"The price is reasonable. It probably costs the same as ArcSight and LogRhythm SIEM. FortiSIEM might cost less than Elastic Security. There are no hidden or additional costs."
"There is no charge for using the open-source version."
"Affordable but with additional costs"
"Elastic Security is free to use."
"The base product is open-source but if you need advanced security features then you need to pay for the subscription. Elastic Security's price is reasonable in some cases and in other cases it's not."
"I can say that the product is cheaply priced."
"We use the open-source version, so there is no charge for this solution."
"Consider both their on-premises solution and their hosted solution. Both are reasonably priced."
"We have selected a perpetual license along with support."
"NNT's pricing is moderate - I would rate their pricing two-and-a-half out of ten."
