Find out what your peers are saying about Arctic Wolf Networks, Palo Alto Networks, Netsurion and others in SOC as a Service."We can effectively manage the massive amounts of security data that we receive from various sources such as firewalls, switches, endpoints, and other log sources."
"Arctic Wolf is laser-focused on providing top-notch customer service."
"The agents give pretty good visibility into what is happening at the endpoint."
"The visibility into our endpoints is huge."
"They have a portal where you can evaluate and mitigate any vulnerabilities that you and your network might have."
"What's valuable about Arctic Wolf AWN CyberSOC is the cost savings it provides for companies that no longer have to hire a bunch of security people and pay for a SIM."
"Arctic Wolf is our eyes and ears 24/7 because we can't possibly watch all of our alerts. We may see all of these alerts, but our attention is distracted because we're working on other things."
"The tool's most valuable feature is its ease of implementation."
"The product has valuable features for cloud IoT device enhancement, intelligent threat detection, etc."
"They focus on detecting administrator-level control compromises. Because they're focusing more on administrator-level compromise, they are less able to see if an individual user has been compromised. It is, admittedly, very difficult because they don't know what normal human behavior is. If a hacker compromises a human account and then acts just like the human, how are you ever going to notice, unless you have some inside knowledge of how the company works? For example, they overlook account lockouts on user accounts, whereas in our own alerting system, we do not. We review every account lockout, and if it is bad, we contact the person, whereas they think of that as noise because they're more focused on the administrator-level compromise."
"It would be great if the whole process of determining vendor risk could be simplified by Arctic Wolf."
"We need an easier way to audit and act on agents."
"The implementation process could be a little more streamlined."
"While it isn't a regular occurrence, there have been some gaps in response to some support questions. Questions get answered, yet there are times it takes longer than I'm comfortable with."
"Arctic Wolf Managed Detection and Response's analysis and remediation parts could be improved. It's not bad, but it needs improvement."
"They could probably expand on their integration tools. They can integrate with more security tools."
"It can sometimes take up to an hour to get notification of a problem and that's a long time."
"The product is more expensive than other vendors in terms of features."
