In the current lot of hundreds of SIEM solutions out there in the market, ArcSight ESM is fairly less expensive with strong fundamentals in place. The log ingestion, correlation are very well performing and totally worth ROI. However, the tool has lost its way when it comes to staying abreast with current feature curve of SIEM technology and the evolution has not been done by MicroFocus. Search times are high and there is no major plug-in that has been introduced as part of the product life cycle.
XSOAR is well suited for phishing detection and response. Phishing alerts are as much of a problem today as they were decades ago. This is because: ●Attackers Can leverage automation to launch high-quantity phishing attacks with the click of a button. ●Spear Phishing attacks are sophisticated and sometimes indistinguishable from real emails, resulting in compromise through human error. ●Security Teams aren’t able to follow set processes while responding to phishing alerts. They must coordinate across email inboxes, threat intel, NGFW, ticketing, and other tools. Each tool has different consoles, data conventions, and contexts, making it difficult for security teams to fill in the gaps while minimizing errors. XSOAR is less suited for analyzing traffic.
It has proven to be far to valuable and effective to consider getting rid of it. Until something better comes along, this is staying in our product stack.
Overall, it is a good investment in order for an organization to stay compliant and stay secure from all the wild things happening. It is definitely a cost effective tool with some good features including correlation, log storage, reporting and dashboards. If a customer is looking for advanced set of features, then I would highly not recommend this.
If you go for platinum support, it's good as you have priority for support. They will take remote control of your machines and troubleshoot. Also, they arrange requirement SEM depending on the issue.
We are currently using Elastic search as well for better management of our devices and to keep all the loopholes filled that have been created around the non-upgraded version of Arcsight Enterprise Manager. Elastic searches have the latest mechanism to fetch logs and correlated data, as well as process them in a more useful way.
The quantity of integrations with security solutions is highest in Palo Alto Solution. The capacity to identify anomalous events is much better in Palo Alto Networks Cortex XSOAR. The flexibility of increased storage area is better as well. The dashboard is very intuitive about showing the most important incidents and how to resolve them.
Reduces man-hours spent on handling false-positive repetitive alerts, daily 40% of analysts' time saved during a 24 hour period. In the initial stage, it was 75% of analysts' time saved due to the new environment, less maturity, and a lot of un-finetuned alerts.
Single pane for notification, collaboration, and action (to some extent) which is a major time saver compared to the conventional method of meeting invites and emails back-and-forth.
Secure documentation of business-critical incidents with a need-to-know basis of access according to each role.
