We performed a comparison between Recorded Future and Tenable Security Center based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Recorded Future, Check Point Software Technologies, Microsoft and others in Threat Intelligence Platforms."The solution is diverse and provides me with a lot of different mechanisms for evaluation."
"The intel that they were providing us over the emails was very good. If it found any hashtag in our organization's name on the dark web, a rogue IP, or a marketplace, it would send us an email and notify us that this is being mentioned, and if we want, they can take some action."
"As a threat intelligence tool, it's very helpful."
"Has the ability to conduct and build any query without limitations."
"The most valuable feature of Recorded Future is how it detects everything regarding our domain."
"The most valuable features of Recorded Future are the useful alerts it provides. If we are monitoring a domain, the solution will provide us with an alert in a prompt manner. It is simple for clients to receive alerts. The advanced search is useful for more accurate filter results."
"From the feedback I've received from my clients, the most valuable feature is the ability to personalize the solution. The ability to have a customized dashboard makes it easy for leadership and management to obtain details. Intelligence analysts or security engineers care about the actions and results, whereas the leadership care about graphs and reports. Recorded Future helps my clients create reports and also determine how the intelligence that is generated is consumed. They can easily show the benefits to the leadership without them having to invest 10 hours a week into transferring numbers into a graph or into creating reports."
"It can collect data from various sources, including social media and the dark web."
"The tool gives us fewer false positives. Compared to its competitors, the solution’s reports are more accurate."
"The feature we've liked most recently was being able to take the YARA rules from FireEye and put them into Tenable's scan for the most recent SolarWinds exploit. That was really useful."
"Compliance and vulnerability scans are most valuable. Compliance scan helps in validating how our teams are complying, and vulnerability scan helps in future-proofing. Its vulnerability detection is accurate."
"Tenable is the leading product for vulnerability scanning."
"The initial setup process is simple."
"Compared to other products, the most valuable features of the solution are its ease of use and ability to provide visibility over scan results while providing many templates to users, making it a helpful tool."
"The scans are the most valuable aspect of this solution."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the vulnerability assessment."
"Lacks sufficient visibility of malware and international APT attacks."
"There is a semantic oncology dynamic relationship between how the MIGR Tech framework needs more data infusion enrichment capabilities."
"The solution could improve in reducing the false positives. However, most of the other tools on the market have false positives. If they enhance their data algorithm, it could improve the accuracy of results and minimize false positives. Identifying patterns of false possibilities can aid in developing better reporting features that could potentially eliminate them in the future. This recording feature tool could benefit from adopting similar techniques utilized by other tools to enhance its functionality. By doing so, it could minimize the need for manual efforts in distinguishing true positives from false positives, ultimately reducing the workload."
"At present, my clients need to be trained by me or another organization on how to use Recorded Future and how to get the best out of it as an analyst, engineer, and administrator. It would be better if clients could directly learn these things without having to go through me or other organizations."
"Recorded Future is a very expensive solution, and its pricing could be improved."
"The solution would benefit from introducing automation."
"When you add one website to Recorded Future, it should automatically call all other websites and social media platforms."
"We can get the data of different malware active throughout the globe, but it would be good if we can do sandboxing of a file. For example, on Any Run, we can perform sandboxing of malware along with their intel about a particular file or hash. It would be great if they have a feature like that."
"We experienced some difficulties with the solution’s support."
"The vulnerability scan does not work correctly until the access privileges are set by the system administrator."
"I think the vendor training provided for Tenable.sc could be a lower price. It's quite expensive for the training."
"If I want to have a very low-managed scan policy, it's a lot of work to create something which is very basic. If I use a tool like Nmap, all I have to do is download it, install it, type in the command, and it's good to go. In Security Center, I have to go through a lot of work to create a policy that's very basic."
"A good plugin editor would be a good additional option for the Security Center."
"Certain aspects require manual effort, such as exporting and analyzing data for our dashboards. The built-in components of the Tenable solution are somewhat clumsy that require external tools. So, this is an area of improvement."
"The solution should provide better web application features and support."
"Tenable SC can improve by making it easier to create complicated reports and have more effectiveness in the remediation area for comparison between the scans."
