Cisco Secure Cloud Analytics Room for Improvement

There are two areas of improvement. Firstly, extend the log retrieval limit to at least three months.  For example, there is a limit on the number of log messages that can be received. So, I would like to expand the log retrieval limit.

And another thing, if we migrate these things to an event or send us an email if there is any critical event, I would like to configure these things on the initial launch. Because if a system is compromised, there will be a lot of data movement from one post to another post to the outside. Then, we should also get an alert on email as well. We have since we have integrated these things. But a direct email for critical alerts should be there. So, I would like to enhance the critical event configuration.

If a new user wants to learn how it should work, how policies work, and where we can configure policies, there should be some learning material for this product.

The product needs to improve its user-friendliness. It is very tricky and you need to study it before using the standard functionalities.

It gives you a whole lot of information, but they can keep on constantly adding to it. When I used to work on it, I just didn't see anything new happening for about a year and a half. Providing newer data and newer reports constantly would help. There should be more classifications and more interesting data.

Cisco Stealthwatch Cloud could improve the graphical user interface. It could be a more user-friendly graphical user interface. so that. Not everybody's a cyber security professional, most of the customers that I deal with are not very skilled. The terms that they use in the solution are quite understandable for a normal CIO.

If you're going to sit with a CIO or a CSO to explain to him anything about the solution, most of them are not technical. Their technical skills are approximately 20 to 30 percent. They need to have simple terms, such as some of the other solutions have that they are able to understand. For example, forensic analysis means this. However, that example is a normal word that someone can understand, but some words that they use to describe certain features, are quite hard to understand.

Cisco Stealthwatch Cloud for technical people is user-friendly because they already understand how it works. For those people who are less technical and not very good at security, they might have a difficult time trying to work around to understand the solution. If they do not have the support it will make it even more difficult and they will have to do the troubleshooting themself.
