Featured Review
Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The solution aggregates all event streams, so that if there are any issues, it's all in the same interface.""LogDNA consolidates all logs into one place, which is super valuable."

More Mezmo Pros →

"The most valuable feature in AT&T AlienVault USM is the reporting.""The vulnerability scanning is helpful to identify the areas that need patching or fixes installed.""Asset discovery seems to be good.""Ease of deployment across various environments.""I can easily check (in one place) all the logs and data in relation to attacks. It also gives me an overview if a server is not configured properly.""It has allowed us to see what is happening on our servers.""It brought our logs into one place for review and set up alarms based on changes we were missing due to lack of having one place for everything to go.""OTX is a great module that lets staff maintain and monitor updates regarding events in the infrastructure and takes decision to improve the security perimeter."

More USM Anywhere Pros →

Cons
"No ability to encapsulate a query or a filter, and communicate or share that among the team.""Every once in a while, our IBM cloud operational implementation gets behind. Sometimes, when we have a customer event, we do not get access to the latest logs for about 30 minutes, particularly for the sites that are heavily utilized. This is clearly not good. It is impossible to RCA when you can't look at the logs that pertain to the time period in which the event occurred. It could be more of an operational problem than a feature problem. I don't have visibility about whether it is a LogDNA issue or just an operational issue."

More Mezmo Cons →

"The lack of mature functionality and expertise in any of those areas is a strong negative.""It would be hard for any legitimate MSSP to use it.""It would be nice to see some machine learning and monitoring of the configuration in network devices.""Its reporting tools need improvements. It would be good if they can provide integration with other ticketing systems. Currently, we only have integration with Slack and Jira. It is also a bit slow, and its replication engine can be improved.""Adding a parsing interface for the customers would make AT&T AlienVault USM better.""I feel that some areas of improvement would be vulnerability scanning. We use a separate product that seems to do a much better job.""The vulnerability scanning feature is one of the areas where the product has certain shortcomings and needs to improve. The tool has vulnerability scanning, but it is not that efficient.""AlienVault must improve their correlation feature. Some of the events do not match with the correlation rules and some of the correlation events are false-positive."
