Real-time monitoring and analytics are very easy and fast and very easy to use
The alerting and real-time analytics helped the security team. They are using a Hadoop database, so real-time monitoring and analytics are very easy and fast. Queries return results quickly and in very small time. It has full automation and automated SIEM responses. We are currently only testing Logsign, but in a few months, we plan to integrate our servers, routers, firewalls, and endpoints into our company's Logsign instance. Then, we can manage everything using Logsign.

SVP IT at AS IT Consulting Pvt. Ltd.
Offers comprehensive report generation while maintaining ease of integration
We need to improve Trellix ESM by making sure that most of the logging devices available in the global market should be covered, and if there is any device which is not covered, there should not be any additional charges for writing the custom parsers on that. We can add some new features regarding AI in the future for Trellix ESM, but the maturity will take a longer time. There are many false positives that happen in an environment during the first couple of months, or around six months, so the system analyst is not able to identify whether the event which has occurred is a true positive or a false positive.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable features of Logsign SIEM are its cloud capabilities, alerting functionality, integration with Elastic Search, and configuration options."
"Logsign provides sample logs within the product, allowing users to see how logs will appear before integration, which is a valuable feature for testing and understanding log formats."
"It has full automation and automated SIEM responses."
"The solution is 100% stable. We really have had a great time working with it. It hasn't let us down."
"From my perspective, for anyone with a small or medium-sized business, this is the best solution."
"The most valuable feature of Trellix ESM, for detecting, is that it detects malware and viruses, such as a particular virus that was critical in Kenya; we used ESM to detect and block that particular virus completely."
"The most valuable feature is that if the scanning does find something, it quarantines it. Then you can decide what you are going to do with it."
"The most valuable feature is for the security operation center because it provides visibility of all traffic within the company infrastructure."
"The most valuable features of McAfee ESM are intrusion detection, malware protection, and the device controller."
"It has good technical support, which is available around the clock. You can call up anytime and get whatever you want. My queues are resolved."
"You will definitely get a return on your investment if you develop the correct security management metrics and have decent operational procedures in place to take action on events in ESM."
 

Cons

"I hope they address the pricing model for Logsign Next-Gen SIEM, especially regarding regional variations. The pricing should not differ based on the country of operation as it can lead to dissatisfaction among customers. A fixed pricing structure would be more favorable for us. I would also suggest enhancing the GUI interface and adding features similar to xFi Exchange from IBM Pure. This would streamline operations and save time for analysts."
"Improvements needed in Logsign SIEM are providing specific security alerts that can be filtered and configured more effectively."
"AI and machine learning need to be developed. If they develop those features, I think everything will be fine."
"The product documentation is good, but could be better. Also a bug-free version would be nice as the version I worked on had a bug in the alarm system."
"The user interface could be more user-friendly."
"The product’s alert response feature needs improvement. It could be more flexible and secure."
"The only drawback is that they don't have any packet capturing or network behavior analysis."
"Executives don’t see ROI on this solution as the reports are not meant for C-levels."
"It is not a very advanced solution, and it is for very generic use cases. It cannot cope with the advanced requirements that we're going to have. For example, for multiple authentication failures, it is still based on Windows events for detecting multiple login failures, whereas other companies are going beyond and working on implementing two-factor authentication. It is time to correlate the two-factor authentication results with authentification failures, which is not happening with McAfee ESM. The performance of the tool should be improved because it is very slow. The data display on the console is very slow in McAfee ESM. Its data storage is still old-fashioned, and it should be improved and upgraded to the latest versions. They have to come up with some new ideas to match what other leaders in the same domain are doing. For example, in Splunk, when you search for information for the last 60 days or five months, it quickly shows the information, but that is not the case with McAfee. The results should be quicker and faster on the console. They should integrate some additional features such as User Behavior Analytics (UBA) and automation. The threat intelligence part should also be improved on McAfee."
"There are always multiple bugs in the product."
"I would like to see good analytics in future releases."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Compared to other SIEMs, it has low pricing."
"McAfee is the right choice for a low-budget solution."
"Regarding pricing, Trellix ESM is not that expensive. It's less than half the cost of IBM QRadar."
"It is an inexpensive product. We purchase its yearly license."
"The licensing cost is based on EPS."
"When compared to IBM Security QRadar and other similar platforms, the pricing of McAfee ESM is reasonable and comparatively less expensive."
"The price is good. It's moderate. We follow a pay-as-you-go model. There are different models available, and they can also be monthly. You can choose monthly or yearly. It's very flexible. If our existing customers exceed the current plan, you can just call McAfee and get it extended."
"You should buy the distributed option instead of the all-in-one for environments with more than 1000 end points."
"The product is slightly expensive."
