Improved log visibility has simplified troubleshooting across firewall and directory events
Falcon LogScale offers excellent features, with scalability being the most notable. The search speed stands out to me as particularly good. Falcon LogScale has positively impacted my organization by providing visibility of the logs, making it easier for us to troubleshoot any issues. The visibility makes troubleshooting easier overall because you can see the logs.

A scalable SIEM solution for monitoring a user's activity in the file server
The most valuable features of the solution are its quick and simple features related to advanced permissions for files, allowing for what permission needs to be granted to the users when it comes to the monitoring folder in the solution. If someone who has been denied permission to use a particular folder tries to go to that folder, then the administrator gets a notification. In general, the administrator can easily gather and maintain records if a person who has been denied permission to a particular confidential folder tries to access it.
