Great for PCI compliance but issues with stability and large amounts of data
I mainly use this solution to meet PCI compliance The automation of compliance reports and the correlation of the log have been major improvements.  The most valuable feature is the predefined reports for PCI compliance. The correlation suite needs to be improved. I also think they need to…

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

"Customer Service: The service we've seen from NNT to date has been extraordinarily good."
"File integrity monitoring is a very important function."
"This is a very easy-to-use interface with a quick ramp-up time."
"The most valuable feature is the predefined reports for PCI compliance."
"The Change Tracker tool is very good and will reduce your overall workload."
"The automation of compliance reports and the correlation of the log have been major improvements."
"The FIM features in the Change Tracker and the Log Tracker are the most valuable."
"If you want to deploy a SIEM and you want it to be simple, and not deal with much maintenance or help from the OEM, then I would say that NNT is the one."
"I would tell potential customers that ESM has a feature called all in one box."
"The product’s most valuable feature is log monitoring."
"Scalability is quite easier with Trellix ESM, because all we need to do is add more receivers to it, so it can go to any point."
"The most valuable feature is the capability to correlate different events from different platforms that we feed into it."
"It blocks the things which are not to be allowed. It has an adaptive mode where it learns for itself."
"It has performed well and delivered the results that I have been looking for."
"Doing Incident analysis in my opinion with ESM is easier than other solutions."
"It is easy to use and deploy. It comes with user-friendly manuals."
 

Cons

"For the NNT Log Tracker and Change Tracker, they have to make their knowledge base available online because there is very little information available on the internet."
"There are some issues with the stability - the correlation engine has failed multiple times, and the reports sometimes take too long, so we have to involve the tech team to get them."
"Only one minor deployment issue came up and it was resolved quickly. No other areas of improvement come to mind yet."
"I would like to see the integration of AI technology, so rather than manually monitoring the logs, the tool will understand it and take care of it."
"It is able to identify the vulnerability, however, they need an option to auto-mitigate."
"The correlation suite needs to be improved."
"Customized reports and alerting functionality could be included in the dashboard."
"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."
"I would like to see improvements to the user interface."
"The support from McAfee ESM could improve. They could improve the speed."
"I have to purchase a new box now. Its existing box is not scalable and I can't use it anymore."
"McAfee ESM is not user-friendly and the log is not accurate. For instance, if I were assigned to generate a log for changes made today, I wouldn't be able to see all the modifications. While Palo Alto allows us to see all changes, McAfee ESM only captures one out of every ten changes. It's crucial to have visibility into all changes made."
"Product-wise, adding accounts on a single data source by batch would be a really great help."
"McAfee is no more providing security updates on this product, and the enhancements to this product seem to have stopped."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Consider both their on-premises solution and their hosted solution. Both are reasonably priced."
"NNT's pricing is moderate - I would rate their pricing two-and-a-half out of ten."
"We have selected a perpetual license along with support."
"It is an inexpensive product. We purchase its yearly license."
"We renew our license annually."
"We pay for our licensing fees on a yearly basis, and there are no costs in addition to the standard licensing fees."
"The cost is all included. The finance department handles the financial part, and we mostly don't get involved in it."
"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."
"The product is slightly expensive."
