Find out what your peers are saying about Recorded Future, Check Point Software Technologies, Microsoft and others in Threat Intelligence Platforms."The reporting services are great. With reporting services, if you have customers that just visit a URL you can see the result - including why it's blocked and how and how the URL was first recognized as malicious."
"Integrating the solution with our existing security tools and workflows was easy."
"The best thing about AlienVault USM is it being a “Jack-of-All Trades” solution. It provides SIEM, HIDS/NIDS, FIM, NetFlow, Asset Management, Vulnerability Management, etc., under one USM platform. None of the commercial SIEM vendors like ArcSight, McAfee, etc., can boast of such a diverse feature set."
"This solution can identify many threats inside the organization (compromised endpoints, configuration issues), as well as "outside" threats (botnets, network scanners, web-attacks, etc)."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is security management for PCI DSS."
"The most valuable feature is threat intelligence."
"The asset management functionality (active and passive scans) is also really important. You can't protect what you do not know about, so having an inventory of all your devices and software is critical to a security management program."
"Easy to use, scalable, stable, and very intuitive platform that provides protection against security threats."
"Reports are customized, so you can present them to executives or engineers."
"It is my "security person" looking at irregularities and letting me know when something has occurred."
"The tool is not user-friendly."
"The solution should be simpler for the end-user in terms of reporting and navigating the product."
"The vulnerability reporting needs to have options to be able to sort or customize the output."
"Their threat intelligence platform needs to be broadened. They should integrate it with more threat intelligence platforms. For the threat feed that they get from open intelligence, I would like them to add a few premium threat intelligence platforms. They can provide a bundle in which AlienVault has the threat intelligence background of other premium products."
"There could be some type of integration with our existing portal. We have our own customer portals, and it would be good if there was an integration so that our portal can provide reports. There could be some type of API into the AlienVault system with the USM system so that it is easy to show the customers high-level reports of the system through our portal."
"It should be able to communicate with other security solutions to stop threats."
"The lack of mature functionality and expertise in any of those areas is a strong negative."
"The reporting and dashboards have room for improvement."
"We develop additional rules and scripts to make it more usable."
"The GUI needs to improve because it's not user-friendly."
