IBM Security QRadar SIEM vs. ReliaQuest GreyMatter

I would only recommend IBM Security QRadar SIEM in a few situations. For one, it's very easy to setup and use if all your log sources are generic from known vendors. It's also significantly cheaper than Splunk, which is nice if you're trying to save money or be more efficient. I would not recommend IBM Security QRadar SIEM for environments with a lot of custom logs and complicated detection requirements.

Our company generates more than a terrabyte of log a day and it can easily go above 2 TB a day. We were using out of the box SOC Solution from splunk to manage our SOC. We lacked the know how of using splunk and also lacked the staff to keep the product up to date to help us tackle the latest threats. We outsourced our SIEM/SOAR service to RQ and they helped us with creating new use cases which addressed the latest threat to our organization. RQ has people who research the latest threats and helps us keep up to date on the day-to-day security operations. RQ also helps with data onboarding if required. So we would recommend RQ to customers who are short-staffed and who lack personnel who could research security threats to keep your organization safe from threat actors.

• Some Analysts are relatively fresh to SOC. They sometimes get put into supporting large infrastructures.
• RQ has a ton of correlation searches that they use to provide end-to-end visibility. Most of them can be restructured to get the same results and this can reduce the number of correlation searches.

As a grade I give 8 as QRadar is not easy to learn. It requires some time to master it. It also needs a team of people actively working on the product. Once you learn to use it the software works very well and it is easy to correlate and understand detected threats. It only takes time to learn how to use it well and configure it properly.

Initial patience is required to learn how to use the product, and it takes a dedicated team to use it. One person is not enough, and it's not enough to just set it up and check it once in a while. It has to be used daily and kept under control to be used effectively

IBM Qradar takes the best from its competitors. Reliable and stable but sometimes very expensive, the SIEM from IBM offers a wide range of scenarios in which the customers can suite and size their own infrastructures. IBM Qradar doesn't really needs to stack up againt its competitors because it already sets an example in the SIEM world.

Reliaquest is vendor agnostic. They have a lot of correlation searches that they use to provide security for your organizations. Compared to other products we have tried we felt that they are the only company that is doing proper market research on the latest and greatest threat to our vertical and coming out with the latest methods to keep up to date. RQ also has a good leadership structure that we could rely on if we run into any escalations. Compared to other products that we tried they try to work with you holding hands trying to resolve your problems.
