The indexes allow you to get your results quickly. The filtering and log passing is the advantage of Logstash.

The most valuable thing is that this solution is widely used for work management and research. It's easy to jump into the security use case with the same technology.

ELK Logstash is easy and fast, at least for the initial setup with the out of box uses.

We chose the product based on the ability to scan for malware using a malware behavioral model as opposed to just a traditional hash-based antivirus. Therefore, it's not as intensive.

It is very quick to react. I can set it to check anomalies or suspicious behavior every 30 seconds. It is very fast.

The cost is reasonable. It's not overly pricey.
 

Elastic Security Cons review quotes

Elastic Security can be a bit difficult to use if a person only has experience in SMBs with tools like Zoho. The product can also be difficult for those who have never dealt with query language.

We're using the open-source edition, for now, I think maybe they can allow their OLED plugin to be open source, as at the moment it is commercialised.

In terms of improvement, there could be more automation in responding to and evaluating detections.

With Elastic Security, the challenge arises from the fact that there is a learning curve in relation to queries and understanding the query language provided to extract usable data.

In terms of what could be improved with Elastic, in some use cases, especially on the advanced level, they are not ready made, so you'll have to write some scripts.

The solution needs to be more reactive to investigations. We need to be able to detect and prevent any attacks before it can damage our infrastructure. Currently, this solution doesn't offer that.

It could use maybe a little more on the Linux side.

If you compare this with CrowdStrike or Carbon Black, they can improve.

There should be a simulation environment to check whether my Elastic implementation is functioning perfectly fine. Other solutions have their own Android and iOS applications that I can install on my mobile so that I am continuously connected to the SIEM.

This type of monitoring is not very mature just yet. We need more real-time information in a way that's easier to manage.
