Vikas Pandita - PeerSpot reviewer
Global Head Of Security Architecture Digital & Technology at Aramex
Centralized analytics have transformed noc and soc operations and deliver faster threat response
Splunk Enterprise Platform's most valuable features include its integration with AI, as Cisco, which has taken Splunk Enterprise Platform recently, is building up AI functionalities, enhancing remediation capabilities and the orchestration part in the market. Additionally, Splunk Enterprise Platform shows the correct logs at the correct time, and inventory management is very good. I assess the effectiveness of Splunk Enterprise Platform in detecting anomalies and preventing system outages as very strong; for over two to three decades, it has provided centralized log visibility, real-time monitoring, and analytics correlation, which is robust for threat detection and incident investigation. Splunk Enterprise Platform's machine learning capability of the toolkit predicts trends and reduces many false positives, making Splunk Enterprise Platform an essential tool for both SOC and network operations, where it effectively detects anomalies that other SIEM tools cannot. Splunk Enterprise Platform's personalized dashboards are superb, as I have been experimenting with them extensively, and new features have enhanced their quality, making them particularly effective for presentations to leadership, including direct engagement with the CISO.
