Comprehensive monitoring boosts security, yet incident management features need expansion
Fortinet FortiSIEM should broaden its remediation part to include more features for incident management. Currently, to manage repetitive incidents or for remediation, I need to use a separate software called FortiSOAR. Additionally, the search functionality in FortiAI should be improved to provide more precise results, making it easier for me to understand what actions need to be taken.

Real-time threat detection and alarm management have improved security operations
Google SecOps is extremely useful for threat detection and hunting. It provides a detailed pipeline for detection and is beneficial for real-time threat monitoring when integrated with Mandiant. The tool's integration capabilities are effective, and it helps in managing alarms for normal threats efficiently. Overall, Google SecOps is a very useful service for security operations.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"To add workers and even collectors is pretty easy."
"FortiSIEM is a great tool for making security processes transparent."
"It detects new technologies, vulnerabilities, and emerging threats on the internet."
"It provides extensive logging and record-keeping for internal networks, cloud applications, and services as well as perimeter physical network security."
"Its automated response feature has benefited our customer communication. Analysts feel more confident in providing timely responses."
"Technical support is helpful."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to view all the network events on a single pane and find the point of contact or point of the incident."
"FortiSIEM's log correlation is good."
"Without hyperbole, I have never, in my entire career, encountered a vendor or a vendor community as awesome as Siemplify. Siemplify and the Siemplify Community quite literally made it possible for our SOC to increase almost five-fold in our number of clients and number of analysts and to go from a Monday to Friday 9-5 shop to a 24/7 shop all in the span of under a year and a half and all while continually adding capabilities and improving the services we offer to our clients."
"The most valuable feature of Siemplify is the playbooks that can be created."
"Google SecOps is extremely useful for threat detection and hunting."
"Overall, Google SecOps is a very useful service for security operations."
"The playbooks feature in Siemplify is crucial for automation. We've utilized both standard and custom integrations with other security operation solutions, enhancing our flexibility. The user interface is generally straightforward, although recent changes may require some adjustment and Siemplify's integrations and capabilities offer potential support for various compliance requirements."
 

Cons

"There could be more AI features included in the product."
"Fortinet FortiSIEM needs to provide better API integrations to users."
"FortiSIEM could be better integrated with other vendors."
"The tool's technical team's response time is too high, and they are not available even when they know that there are many pending issues."
"The backup and recovery process for this solution needs improvement."
"Areas for improvement would be the ease of use and the integration with Fortinet's own products."
"Their technical support is horrible. By horrible, I mean a train wreck of a disaster that has fallen off a bridge and caught fire."
"The performance can be improved. Sometimes it takes a long time to fetch data."
"We often encounter minor issues that could be improved, but we maintain communication with the developers and submit feature requests. Recently, I requested enhancements such as improved search functionality within playbooks and expanded options for exporting case data."
"I'm inclined to say that I'd love to see some Machine Learning capabilities integrated into the platform, however, I just attended a demo this morning where Siemplify gave a sneak peek into some Machine Learning capabilities that they are currently developing and have roadmapped for release soon."
"The main improvement could be in the accuracy and detail provided in threat descriptions."
"Building the playbooks could be easier and the integration could improve. It is a difficult process, such as what API connections need to be made."
"The main improvement could be in the accuracy and detail provided in threat descriptions."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Fortinet FortiSIEM is very cost-efficient compared to other SIEM solutions."
"The price is competitive."
"The tool is really expensive. For what the tool does for our team, the price is fair."
"There are additional features that cost more than the standard licensing fees."
"They have a yearly subscription."
"Fortinet FortiSIEM is cheaper compared to other products."
"Manageable, however would be better as pay as you go versus CapEX."
"Please be cheaper and more simplified."
