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.

CSO at Altera
Has improved implementation speed and coverage but lacks contextual accuracy in alerts
One major improvement I would suggest for Sumo Logic Security is in its risk-based alerting system; while it initially sounds clever and modern, it works as a point-based system where an IP address or entity gets points for bad actions, raising alerts when enough points are collected. This can lead to alerts that are collections of disjointed signals that sometimes make no sense and lack real context; this simplistic approach makes it hard to find coherent stories during investigations. To improve in the support area, I recommend enhancing the technical part because, while the process is good, the actual quality may depend on the personnel involved.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"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."
"Overall, Google SecOps is a very useful service for security operations."
"The most valuable feature of Siemplify is the playbooks that can be created."
"Google SecOps is extremely useful for threat detection and hunting."
"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."
"Sumo Logic Security is a good solution for searching the logs and identifying the issues."
"We can ingest logs and make reports out of them. It is a good tool which can help us monitor any issues."
"For many of our services, we use Sumo Logic to track errors and send notifications to our Slack channel, if there are issues. Then, we have our support people monitoring this, and they can react quickly."
"We are able to diagnose problems before our customers."
"The most valuable features of Sumo Logic Security are the rules, use cases, and ease of use. Additionally, the integration is straightforward and good GUI."
"With this tool, we provide access to every developer team the ability to find errors, then they come to us and ask for specific help."
"The solution is quite stable."
"We use it to ingest Windows domain controller logs. We use this to monitor if anyone is placed in particular administration groups that potentially shouldn't be. It helps us keep track of people."
 

Cons

"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."
"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."
"The main improvement could be in the accuracy and detail provided in threat descriptions."
"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."
"The correlation rules and log mapping are not as mature compared to other SIM tools like Splunk."
"In my opinion, this solution has a steep learning curve and requires practice if users to be able to use this tool very efficiently."
"The initial setup is the most stressful, like learning how to use it."
"It took a bit of trial and error to get it set up correctly based on everything we had to do. In the end, we had to send everything over HTTP, which was sort of a stop-gap."
"From the network segmentation side, there is some discrepancy in log onboarding. The tool needs to improve direct API integrations, login integration, native login integration, etc."
"It would be nice to have an improved ability to scroll through logs within a time frame. Right now, we can search for specific errors. However, if we want to look for "before and after" within a specific time frame, it's not easy using the tool. This would be an improvement."
"Sumo Logic Security is expensive, and its pricing could be improved."
"I would like to see improvement in the user experience when configuring things, ingesting logs, and creating ports."
