Find out in this report how the two Log Management solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The most valuable features are the threat prediction and network forensics."
"The most valuable feature of RSA NetWitness Logs and Packets are the alerts and correlations tools."
"In my opinion, the solution's most valuable feature is its capacity to monitor network traffic, logs from devices within the network, and network captures. This capability extends beyond logs to include full network capturing."
"The most valuable features are its ingestion of logs and raising of alerts based on those logs."
"What we are mainly using are the RSA concentrator, RSA Decoder, Archiver, Broker, and Log Decoder."
"The most valuable features are the packet inspection and the automated incident response."
"The newer 11.5 version that my team is using has found it to have good mapping."
"The packet capture aspect of it is a valuable feature because it is quite different from a traditional SIEM solution that only carries out investigations based on captured logs."
"It catches modified signatures of known viruses."
"They have many different options with Palo Alto WildFire and the set-up is quick. If you have all the details in hand, it does not take more than 15 minutes to deploy a firewall."
"Whole team can use the firewall and understand it."
"The most valuable feature is the Automatic Verdict, to recognize whether something is a threat, or not."
"What I like about Palo Alto is that it is a complete product, with everything in it."
"Their technical support is outstanding and top-notch."
"The most valuable feature is the improved security that it offers."
"Scalable ATP solution that's quick to set up. It demonstrates good performance and stability."
"There are instances where you try to run the reports and then it does not give you the desired outcome."
"The documentation is not as structured as I would like, personally, and I think that it can be improved and made much more user-friendly."
"It should have a monitoring feature. It would help us analyze the current state of attacks faster from a single platform."
"Lots of competing products have vulnerability protection built into their products, and this solution would be improved by including that support."
"The log system is a bit complex and has room for improvement."
"An area for improvement would be better automation and more inbuilt use cases."
"I believe that integrating the solution with other products such as Oracle would be beneficial."
"They should implement algorithms to digest that data and produce additional, more advanced reporting, alerting and support of internal security teams."
"The threat intelligence that we receiving in the reporting was not as expected. We were expecting more. Additionally, we should be able to whitelist a specific file based on a variety of attributes."
"In the future, Palo Alto could reduce the time it takes to process the file."
"Palo Alto Networks WildFire could improve by adding support for manual submission of suspicious files and URLs. Additionally, it would be an advantage to add rule-based analysis. Currently, it uses only static and AI. We need to be able to analyze archive files."
"The cyber security visibility and forensics features to receive more information about incidents could improve in Palo Alto Networks WildFire."
"They should make their user interface a little more user-friendly."
"The global product feature needs improvement, the VPN, and we need some enhanced features."
"The system performance degrades after the solution has been deployed for some time. The data that it gives us becomes a little bit slow. When you try to get some data for troubleshooting, it seems like it's working hard to extract that data."
"They provide a medium level of technical support."
