Informative dashboards and integrates well with other products, but it needs artificial intelligence for more advanced threat detection
The product can be developed by bringing in AI and ML-based logic to learn from external emerging threats. This would help to keep the feeds real-time and secure the client's environment. Furthermore, it should use automation to notify customers or remediate the environment. The analytics and big data platform integration can be improved to provide better visibility of past data to look for existing threats or missed threats. It will be better able to predict future threats and be resilient against new threats, risks, or attacks. A cloud-based solution can be bought in to look for wider issues in external users or technologies.

Reliable and good support but can be expensive
I have no real complaints about the solution. Threat detection could be better. They need to enhance their threat intelligence feeds. We would like to have more IOCs or more trade intelligence to not only rely on the intelligence of the engineer in charge but to have some threat intelligence and some seeds of IOCs and to have the host have some artificial intelligence to reduce the number of false positives. I don't see this solution being very scalable. The solution is pricey.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"All of the feeds can be enriched by using the predefined content pack, which can be deployed and used by SOC operations, threat hunting teams, and engineering teams."
"It is stable. We have been using it for some time, without any issues."
"The most valuable feature is the way it captures the traffic, and it contains every detail of the communication."
"It helps our security team respond more accurately when there are threats, then we get less false positives or negatives."
"RSA NetWitness does market analysis in a more granular form. It gives you full visibility."
"We've contacted technical support several times. They've been very good. They have been able to help us resolve our issues."
"The interface of this solution is very flexible and easy to use."
"It is very easy to use, and its usability is great. The use cases are also very easy. The visualizations of the use cases are magnificent. You cannot find this in any other solution. From my point of view, it is great."
"It's a scalable solution. We have around five to eight customers using RSA NetWitness Endpoint, and we hope to increase the number of users."

Cons

"The analytics and big data platform integration can be improved to provide better visibility of past data to look for existing threats or missed threats."
"The solution is modular, for example you can buy the RSA ePack, which you buy as a module is not part of the conduit solution. They could include it and have it as an all-in-one solution."
"The solution lacks a reporting engine."
"Its price could be improved. It is an expensive product. Its training is also too expensive. It would be great if they can have a better pricing scheme for the training."
"The contamination feature could be improved."
"The deployment process is complex. I don't know why, but this solution will suddenly stop working. Logs stop coming. Often, one thing or another stops working. Most of the time, one of my team members is working with troubleshooting and working with technical support. Log passing is also one of the biggest challenge."
"Threat detection could be better."
"This solution needs an upgrade in reporting. I have heard from RSA that they are working on this, but as of yet it is not available."
"NetWitness Endpoint's blocking feature does not work properly - if there's a malicious process, it's not possible to kill it via a custom rule unless and until it's flagged as malicious."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The cost is affordable and it also depends on the usage of the toolset."
"It is an expensive product."
"The cost depends on the number of endpoints that you want to monitor, but it is not expensive."
"The pricing is not very economical. It is a quite costly product for India. One thing is that when you purchase it, you have to purchase a module separately."
"It is highly scalable. It can be bought based on your requirements."
"The price of the solution depends on the environment. If the environment is large then it will cost more. However, the larger the environment with more endpoints, you will receive an increased discount. If the environment is very small, then you might think it is expensive. It is always better to buy in bulk to receive a discount. The minimum number of assets is usually 500, with discounts on 1000 and 2000."
"I do not have any opinion on the pricing or licensing of the product."
"NetWitness Endpoint is less costly than its competitors, but it offers fewer features."
"They can easily adjust if you have the requirements which are required. If you have a budget cut or a budget constraint, they can bend."
