Q&A Highlights
Question: IBM QRadar is rated above competitors (McAfee, Splunk, LogRhythm) in Gartner's 2020 Magic Quandrant. Agree/Disagree?
Answer: Hello , As someone who worked with Splunk, Arcsight and Qradar. I am sorry but you cant compare between those two . IBM QRADAR works great with 100 eps and with 100000 eps. IBM Qradar analyze not only logs but Traffic, Policey's, Vulnerabilities, OSINT Data and integrates them all into a single quilty event which made the analysis factor and easter Risk management Risk assessment. Even in an SMB business So you cant compare those two.

Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The daily alerts allow me to quickly find security and operations issues which need to be addressed.""Even other products we have that feed into it, instead of having to watch all of them we only have to watch one. For example, we have CrowdStrike, so instead of having to pay attention that solution - because their dashboard doesn't really pop when an alarm comes up - we can see issues with the red on the LogRhythm alarm. That is very nice.""It's positively affected our overall rate of efficiency.""The artificial intelligence engine.""It's reliable and the performance is good.""Overall effectiveness is very good. I like how it is oriented to both analysts and technical support people. It's easily adopted by end users as much as by technologists.""In terms of security, LogRhythm NextGen SIEM is great.""It has allowed us to dive deeper into our network and figure out what is going on by parsing logs properly and being able to reduce the time it takes to work cases down from seven days to approximately two days."

More LogRhythm SIEM Pros →

"It is a good central viewpoint for issues. These can then be investigated in more detail on the subnet server(s)/endpoints.""The solution's technical support is great.""McAfee as a whole is a good solution.""The most valuable feature is the capability to correlate different events from different platforms that we feed into it.""It has performed well and delivered the results that I have been looking for.""I like the ease of deployment.""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.""This solution integrates easily and very well with other technologies."

More Trellix ESM Pros →

Cons
"LogRhythm's SOAR and NDR features don't stack up well against competitors. maybe integrating theme functionality as the other do. But in general, it's okay.""One area for improvement in LogRhythm NextGen SIEM is that it's a Windows-based tool, and I feel it should be on the Linux operating system instead. Another area for improvement in the tool is the UI. There should be minor changes in the UI to make it better, though I like the dashboards in LogRhythm NextGen SIEM.""I would really like to see some type of group or global management for RIM policies,""I would like a more fuller implementation of STIX/TAXII so I can pull in some of the government lists without having to go implement a whole new STIX/TAXII platform.""The initial setup is not so easy because it is quite a process.""LogRhythm NextGen SIEM is currently based only on the Windows platform. This means that some of our customers have to purchase a Windows license elsewhere. If LogRhythm can move to a Linux platform or a proprietary platform, it would be very helpful.""We have gone through a few versions which has caused a lot of instability. We have logged a lot of hours with professional services.""There is room for improvement with separate running sources or better integration."

More LogRhythm SIEM Cons →

"It cannot integrate with our Next-Generation Firewall and few applications such as Cisco ACI.""I have to purchase a new box now. Its existing box is not scalable and I can't use it anymore.""It seems McAfee does test its product before releasing. When we - not only us, other companies also - deploy McAfee, we face multiple issues from the customer side, after which, McAfee reacts and fixes the bugs.""The user interface could be more user-friendly.""The only issue I have with McAfee is the amount of computer resources that it takes... it's definitely impacting some of the other applications that are running on a computer at the same time.""The solution needs to improve case management. The UI is confusing.""The initial setup is difficult and could improve.""The only drawback is that they don't have any packet capturing or network behavior analysis."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "Look closely at the cost of licensing of other products. This should include setups and the need for support services. I did a RFQ to 2 other vendors before choosing this product."
  • "If you don't have your staff, absolutely look into the co-pilot and factor that into your cost evaluation."
  • "I would recommend that whatever sales quotes to them upfront, they will probably go up. Because they are probably going to outgrow that very quickly or once they start getting everything into it, they are going to have to move up anyway."
  • "Look for whatever will give you the most value. That's the main point. It is not one size fits all."
  • "I would recommend talking to the rep. That's the biggest thing because they will know what questions to ask."
  • "In comparison to the competition, they are more affordable. This allows us to do more with less."
  • "The solution has provided us with consistency and increased staff productivity through orchestrated automated work flows by at least 20 percent."
  • "I have seen a measurable decrease in the mean time to detect and respond to threats. We went from not detecting them to detecting them. We can actually pick up what is anomalous in our network now."
  • More LogRhythm SIEM Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "You should buy the distributed option instead of the all-in-one for environments with more than 1000 end points."
  • "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 dependent on the customer's environment and requirements."
  • "The pricing is good, and they are competitive compared to providers such as RSA and IBM QRadar."
  • "The cost is all included. The finance department handles the financial part, and we mostly don't get involved in it."
  • "We renew our license annually."
  • "McAfee is the right choice for a low-budget solution."
  • "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."

    I cannot respond to the query as I have worked with solutions based on NetIQ and AcrSight.
    1. I feel the query is very generic and can not have any tangible response other than users listing their side of the stories (experience) while tabulating Pros & Cons would be inconclusive.
    2. The vendors mentioned (McAfee, Splunk, LogRhythm and IBM Q1 Labs) are from the top quadrant and are very much comparable based on evaluation parameters such as List of Features, capabilities and capacities, Integration to other corporate IT security tools etc. 
    3. Methodology used by Gartner for evaluation of vendors for SIEM Quadrant should also be kept in view to get a realistic comparison. I feel, its not a real Apple-to-Apple comparison nor can be used as a measure to influence the decision making for a new deployment (or migration to another vendor)
    4. I also feel that vendor experiences, most of the times are dependent on how clear you are of your own Security Landscape, Compliance & Regulatory drivers and requirements. 

    Thanks

    Unfortunately while evaluating SIEM solutions I was unable to evaluate the IBM solution. I tried to work with IBM for two weeks to get an evaluation of the product and finally gave up.

    I think Splunk is an incredibly diverse and flexible product; however, if you are just looking for a SIEM I think it's a bit overcomplicated.

    Our company choose SolarWinds LEM due to it's ease of deployments for small to mid sized environments and we have a good track record working with SolarWinds as a vendor.

    I asked this question in a previous discussion, what is your experience with the solutions?

    I went to Infoworld and found some pretty interesting results - www.infoworld.com

    It seems that based on price, GFI took the prize with $220/server $22/workstation.

    But based on features and sheer capability, Arcsight took the prize there.

    Additional findings bring up HP Arcsight, IBM Q1 Radar and McAfee Nitro as the industry leaders - Gartner Magic Quadrant from 2013 - infosecnirvana.com

    But if you were to go to the comparison charts:

    Cons
    HP Arcsight - Complex, Suited for Medium to large deployments, learning curve, skilled employees
    IBM Q1 Radar - Limited Customization, limited multitenancy support, limited use case configuration
    McAfee Nitro - Very basic correlation capabilities, requires agent installs, no analytics capability, limited customization, limited support for multi-tier, multi-tenancy

    There are others these seem to be the leaders in the industry.

    So from the report from Gartner, Infoworld and Infosecnirvana.com, they all seem to think that HP Arcsight is the way to go

    Hi,

    I disgree for SME installation since Q1 is usually on a large scale
    installation. While expertise on the product is still needed including
    integration with other security platforms.

    Splunk/LogRythm is good for Network correlation only not focusing much on the
    security area.

    McAfee is ok for both SME and Enterprise whilst expertise should also be
    considered as they have an easy and available tool for integration with their
    ticketing system, IPS, and AV.

    Hope this helps.

    Cheers,
    Lilet

    Vendor

    Its is now an easy and clear answer.
    It depends on the environment, the integration needed, and the staff expertise.

    IBM is usually a better solution for large/very large installations and integration.
    But it requires much more staff and skills.

    But for smaller environments Splunk and LogRhytm is better.

    McAfee is correctly rated against others.

    So the answer is YES/AGREE for large installations.

    And NO/DISAGREE for smaller ones.

With more than 4,000 customers globally, LogRhythm SIEM is an integrated platform that helps security operations teams protect critical infrastructure and information from emerging cyberthreats. Ultimately, LogRhythm SIEM is an integrated set of modules that contribute to the security team’s fundamental mission: rapid threat monitoring, threat detection, threat investigation, and threat neutralization. LogRhythm SIEM is for organizations that require an on-premises solution and offers:

    ● Streamlined workflow

    ● Secure data access

    ● Real-time visibility

    ● A unified user experience

    ● Management customization

    Security information and event management (SIEM) solutions have been evolving for over a decade; their core functionality still acts as the most effective foundation for any organization’s technology stack. A SIEM solution enables an organization to centrally collect data across its entire network environment to gain real-time visibility into activity that may pose a risk to the organization. SIEM technology addresses threats before they become significant financial risks while simultaneously helping better manage an organization’s assets.

    LogRhythm SIEM has many key features and capabilities, including:

    High-Performance Log Management: LogRhythm SIEM offers structured and unstructured search capabilities which allows users to swiftly search across an organization’s vast data to easily find answers, identify IT and security issues, and troubleshoot issues. Users can efficiently process and index terabytes of log data daily.

    Network and Endpoint Monitoring: Forensic sensors allow users to gain deep visibility into endpoint and network activity. Users can see behavioral anomalies and better respond to incidents.

    SmartResponse™ Automation: LogRhythm SIEM allows users to centrally execute pre-staged actions that automate incident investigatory tasks and responses.

    Automated Machine Analytics: LogRhythm SIEM's AI Engine continuously analyzes all collected security incidents and forensic data. Security teams are delivered precise, real-time intelligence about risk-prioritized threats.

    Case and Security Incident Management: LogRhythm SIEM offers an integrated workflow so that threats don’t slip through the cracks. Collaboration tools help centrally manage and track investigations.

    User and entity behavior analytics (UEBA): Embedded deterministic UEBA monitoring helps protect against insider threats.

    Security orchestration, automation, and response (SOAR): LogRhythm SIEM includes our embedded SOAR solution to increase efficiency and higher-quality incident response with low mean time to response (MTTR).

    Benefits to Using LogRhythm SIEM

    The platform offers great value to security and IT operations. Users have the ability to map their security and IT operations to existing frameworks such as NIST and MITRE ATT&CK.

    ● The platform offers broad integration across security and IT vendors: Users benefit from support for integration with hundreds of security and IT solutions. In turn, this further extends SIEM capabilities and data collection.

    ● The platform provides compliance adherence, enforcement, and reporting: The prebuilt compliance modules automatically detect violations as they occur and remove the burden of manually reviewing audit logs.

    Reviews from Real Users

    LogRhythm SIEM stands out among its competitors for a number of reasons. Two major ones are its ability to be customized and its quick performance of queries.

    Jason G., a senior cybersecurity engineer, writes, "I have found the Advanced Intelligence Engine has provided the most value to us because we can customize alarms based on our requirements and have created hundreds of alarms that notify different people for different scenarios."

    Andy W., principal consultant at ITSEC Asia, notes, “LogRhythm SIEM covers all our primary security analysis needs. It makes it easier for us to analyze threats and improves our response times. It's a versatile platform that performs queries fast compared to other SIEM solutions.”
