Really scalable for enterprise customers
The solution should have more integration capabilities with different platforms. The API is nearly open and scalable, so the solution can integrate with many platforms. The solution has more than 200 log sources in the scalability to support, but this is its limit. Installation is pretty easy. However, there are a couple of modules involved, so it is not as easy as it could be. We are talking about a distributed module, not a single-module type. This is what makes things a bit complex, instead of easier. I rate it as a seven out of ten on its installation and configuration capabilities.

Good file integrity monitoring and change tracking tools but the knowledge base needs to be available online
For the NNT Log Tracker and Change Tracker, they have to make their knowledge base available online because there is very little information available on the internet. I would like to see the integration of AI technology, so rather than manually monitoring the logs, the tool will understand it and take care of it.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The software is scalable to whatever is required, and you can also put a lot of resources in the cloud."
"Incident management is its most valuable feature."
"The most valuable features are the packet decoder, log decoder, and concentrator."
"The most valuable features are its ingestion of logs and raising of alerts based on those logs."
"It gives the capability for the incident response team to correlate logs to identify any kind of problem like malware and incidents in a general sense, both for logs and packets."
"NetWitness Platform offers flexibility for deployment and robust integration capabilities."
"The most valuable features are the integration and ease of use."
"The most valuable feature is that we can create our own connectors for any application, and NetWitness provides the training and tools to do it."
"The FIM features in the Change Tracker and the Log Tracker are the most valuable."
"This is a very easy-to-use interface with a quick ramp-up time."
"The most valuable feature is the predefined reports for PCI compliance."
"File integrity monitoring is a very important function."
 

Cons

"Nowadays, their support is a little subpar compared to other solutions. I rate RSA support six out of 10."
"The threat detection capability and centralizing and upgrading capability need to be improved. The threat alert capability needs to be improved as well because there is some lag time at present. They need to work on their database search too."
"The user interface is a little bit difficult for new users and it needs to be improved."
"They should implement algorithms to digest that data and produce additional, more advanced reporting, alerting and support of internal security teams."
"The system looks like it is a mix of a bunch of different systems, and nothing looked like it was quite together."
"The initial setup was complex because it takes a lot of time to complete the implementation."
"The tool's integration capability isn't so great."
"The system architecture is complex and sometimes it’s hard to troubleshoot potential problems."
"The correlation suite needs to be improved."
"I would like to see the integration of AI technology, so rather than manually monitoring the logs, the tool will understand it and take care of it."
"Only one minor deployment issue came up and it was resolved quickly. No other areas of improvement come to mind yet."
"It is able to identify the vulnerability, however, they need an option to auto-mitigate."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It provides tools to assist in selecting the appropriate license and usage scenarios."
"In comparison to other SIEM solutions such as Splunk, NetWitness is less costly."
"The new pricing and licensing mechanisms are fair. I would advise always to get the full solution (i.e., not only Logs)."
"Many clients are not able to purchase the packet capability because there is a huge amount of data, and the cost depends on the number of EPS (Events per second), as well as the number of gigabytes of data per day."
"We have a perpetual license, so the total cost of ownership is not very expensive. It's a good investment."
"The NetWitness Platform may be affordable only for enterprise-level customers, as it may not be within the budget of small and medium-sized businesses."
"RSA NetWitness Logs and Packets do not have a subscription model, it's a one-time purchase. There is only a perpetual license."
"It’s cheaper to run virtual machines in a VMware environment."
"Consider both their on-premises solution and their hosted solution. Both are reasonably priced."
"NNT's pricing is moderate - I would rate their pricing two-and-a-half out of ten."
"We have selected a perpetual license along with support."
