Offers remediation capabilities and provides a bird's-eye view of events happening in your environment, summarizing critical events that need attention
One drawback is that it becomes so easy to use that users may lose the habit of manual checks and balances. As a security person, you should always worry about potential threats. If you have a very useful and easy tool, you might lose the ability to think differently and critically. For example, in a group of ten people, if nine think the same way and one thinks differently, you should consider the tenth person's perspective because they might have valuable insights. Having a great product is not always beneficial because you may become too dependent on it, which can be problematic in the long term. If you lose your critical thinking skills, you might not recognize when something abnormal is happening. While the system will notice, systems can have their own challenges and issues. I'm not criticizing the product itself but emphasizing the importance of not being overly dependent on machines. Similar to what we see with Tesla cars, no matter how advanced, there is always a chance things may not work as expected. So, the users need to prepare for that eventuality. Seceon Open Threat Management Platform has some add-ons that they sell as part of the whole suite, but not individually. If they sold them individually, they could potentially get more business.

A highly scalable solution that is easy to manage and super easy to set up
We use Snare for picking up Windows logs, and we used to use it for SQL as well. We had used it for Linux once or twice. We're mainly using it for Windows and Windows flat files The most valuable feature of Snare is flexibility or the ability to filter all things you don't want and don't have…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It offers a holistic approach with multiple solutions blended into one platform."
"I like that it's an AI-based platform. The most valuable feature is that it's a comprehensive solution. Most tools in the marketplace are comprised of miscellaneous items. They fail to provide real-time remediation features. However, with Seceon Open Threat Management Platform, anything you can think of in cybersecurity, like auto-remediation, real-time response, and even on-premise components, is available in a single platform. So, it's perfect for finance and healthcare who don't want to share their data with a third party like the cloud. You can have this on-premise as well. So, the expenditure will be lower as less human intervention is required."
"The solution is stable."
"The algorithm used in Seceon OTM is clear and logical, categorizing events as needed. This helps us identify and respond to threats effectively."
"You can use different solutions in a single platform which is very easy and attractive for customers."
"It is effective because it has threat intelligence from across the world and constantly checks and updates for new threats."
"Seceon Open Threat Management Platform provides a more straightforward implementation that is better than Splunk and offers an AI-based platform with machine learning and deep learning capabilities."
"The solution is very cost-effective compared to Splunk and LogRhythm."
"Snare has good agents, especially for Windows."
"The most valuable feature of Snare is flexibility or the ability to filter all things you don't want and don't have security value."
"The best thing about Snare is its format and consistency."
 

Cons

"The dashboard has always been an issue."
"The product could be improved by including sandboxing capabilities in the next release."
"For small to medium-sized customers, Seceon Open Threat Management Platform is good. However, for large enterprises, it is not as effective."
"The product should improve the triggering rate."
"Seceon Open Threat Management Platform sells some add-ons as part of the whole suite but not individually. If they sold them individually, they could potentially attract more business."
"It would be ideal with the processing was more manageable. Not many customers are willing to have a dedicated server with two CPUs and one TB of memory. The cost of this is huge for a smaller organization."
"We are at the client’s end, offering services. They don’t know about security rules and benchmarks. We are working on the discovery and remediation but we don’t really have the intelligence that was available while working with other tools. Human working is also very essential for the solution. The automatic session is impossible to play since it needs to touch Redfin for further analysis. No one has breached our clients."
"Certain features, such as DLP, need to be improved as they are superficial and not in-depth."
"Snare should modernize its GUI a little bit."
"Users will initially find it difficult to identify the event types and installation in Snare."
"The solution is now developing a SIEM-like feature on Snare Central Server, but it's not complete yet."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is cheap and very competitive. It offers good tuning in terms of the pricing. Other solutions like Palo Alto and IBM are more expensive."
"The price is quite reasonable."
"I find Seceon OTM's pricing to be reasonable, not too high or low, just okay for the market standards. I can't disclose specific figures, we pay on a quarterly basis under a service model. I would rate it eight out of ten. As a customer, I always hope for better pricing options."
"It has a per-asset model instead of an ingestion-based model, which gives predictable pricing. In terms of price, it is in the middle to lower range of SIEMs that it competes against. It is the most affordable solution that we have implemented so far. It was much more affordable than anything else I've implemented."
"The pricing is very competitive. It's not expensive."
"Seceon Open Threat Management Platform is cost-effective because it's a comprehensive platform that offers high availability."
"We used the solution's trial version for two months and later purchased it."
"On a scale from one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive, I rate Snare's pricing a four out of ten."
"Snare has reasonable pricing."
"Snare is a cheap solution because a lot of customers are using it."
