We performed a comparison between Cisco Secure Network Analytics and IronNet Collective Defense Platform based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Darktrace, Vectra AI, Auvik and others in Network Traffic Analysis (NTA)."Most valuable features are the network maps and server and network response time."
"Provides easily identifiable anomalies that you can't see with signature detections."
"It provides good visibility to the customers. People are still evaluating it, but it provides visibility and helps them to take action to remediate and mitigate the issues that are highlighted on the dashboard. It has good integration with the Cisco switching platform."
"Being able to graph and show data to management has improved our organization. We can show the data to the higher-ups. It shows them that it's picking up on these anomalies and doing its job."
"This product alleviates the day-to-day headaches for us, in regards to metrics."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is data hoarding because it catches threats on a frequent basis that we had no idea of."
"Stability is the most valuable feature we have seen in this solution."
"I value the feature which enables me to detect devices talking to suspect IPs."
"The most valuable feature is the ease of use and the full reach of services."
"The overall visibility into the actual device itself would be helpful. I don't just want support-specific data, but also to be able to see information such as CPU and other internal components or usage of the devices."
"The ability to be natively integrated into Port Aggregator would be beneficial because it would reduce just one more component that's needed in order to have that type of view."
"The version with the Dell server had iDRAC problems. Often, it reported iDRAC failure."
"One area that could be improved in SNA is the integration with Cisco ISE for user and session details, which currently requires additional setup."
"At my company, we might not be using it enough with other applications that we have that can integrate with it."
"It's a good solid solution but integration with Network Access Control products with Cisco ISE would be good."
"We need to be able to filter out internal IPs as non-threats."
"Stealthwatch is still maturing in AI. It uses artificial intelligence for predictions, but AI still needs to mature. It is in a phase where you get 95% correct detection. As its AI engine learns more, it will become more accurate. This is applicable to all the devices that are using AI because they support both supervised and unsupervised machine learning. The accuracy in the case of supervised machine learning is dependent on the data you feed into the box. The accuracy in the case of unsupervised machine learning is dependent on the algorithm. The algorithm matures depending on retrospective learning, and this is how it is able to detect zero-day attacks."
"I would like to see it integrate with third-party systems."
