Likelihood to Recommend
Well-Suited Scenarios:
Real-Time Threat Response: ES excels in swiftly detecting and responding to security threats through data correlation.
Compliance Management: ES streamlines compliance with detailed logs and reports, ideal for regulated industries.
User Behavior Analytics: Effective in monitoring user and entity behavior, particularly for insider threat detection.
Large-Scale Environments: Valuable for organizations with diverse data sources and high volumes of data.
Incident Investigation: ES aids in post-incident analysis, reconstructing events to understand root causes.
Less Appropriate Scenarios:
Smaller Organizations: For simpler setups, ES may be complex and costly.
Static Environments: In low-risk settings, ES's advanced features may be unnecessary.
Limited Resources: Tight budgets or sparse IT resources may hinder effective ES use.
Lack of In-House Expertise: Without security experts, optimizing ES can be challenging.
Budget Constraints: ES may be cost-prohibitive for budget-conscious organizations, prompting consideration of more affordable alternatives.

It is suited for people who are looking to secure their PCs from malware attacks. There is also email threat prevention where it will detect unwanted mails which come through our inbox. The sandbox feature comes in handy when you want to test new applications that will prevent it spreading to multiple systems in an environment if it is malicious. It has good customer support for all our technical queries. Since pricing is quite high, small-scale organizations can't afford it.

Pros
  • Its best feature is its user interface, which is easy to navigate and understand. All you need is a little tutorial on how to use the Splunk query language and you're done.
  • Logs can be easily uploaded or shared across multiple platforms and display a highly insightful graphical representations of data using graphs, tables, and many other formats.

Cons
  • To identify User Behaviour analysis is lacking component which we get in Splunk UBA.
  • The documentation part is hard to work on because if the new user tries to learn ES then the documentation is not user-friendly.
  • ES must ass more Knowledge objects by default to make security-related aspects more reliable and enhance the details.

  • handling exceptions if you could centralize it would be nice.
  • In the same way, it could improve how the logs are seen, the board is very rough.
  • At the level of final use, there is no way that it can visualize the time it takes for a scan to be carried out remotely.

We are very happy with Splunk and would advise anyone to take a serious look at it. It might look pricey but the rewards Splunk offers seem endless.

Usability
You definitely need to learn how to use Splunk to get the most of the tool. There are many courses available for free to get up to speed on the usability of the tool but it's not that simple. It will take time to digest all the data and to understand how to query for what you are looking for.

Reliability and Availability
I'm not an ES user, but, in my implementation I usually try to prevent all service stops to guarantee High availability to the final customers.

Performance
ES requires a very performant infrastructure: if it has it's performant, otherwise not. I had situation with a very performant infrastructure and I didn't notized that it was a distributed architecture, it seemed that there ware few data on my PC, othewise I experienced less performant infrastructures with less performaces.

It's good when it's responsive, but I've had times where I had to wait quite a while for a response. But these are typically the exceptions rather than the rule. When you do get a response it is always well-informed and appropriate. I would say they've been trending better over time with this.

Personally, I have only called our internal IT team about needing changes to permissions, not McAfee itself, but our IT team can make the changes though it seems to take them longer than I would think it needs to take. As someone who administers a different program, with different permissions, I would feel they should be able to make the exceptions faster and easier.

In-Person Training
I experienced only on-line training, but the trainers were very professional and competent. Maybe it could be more useful if they also have an experience in projects because sometimes they didn't have a real project experience to communicate to the students. Anyway, it was very interesting and I learned many thing that's very difficoult (or maybe impossible!) to have by myself, aven if I have more than 10 years of Splunk activity experience.

It was very interesting and I learned many thing that's very difficoult (or maybe impossible!) to have by myself. The only problem was that, when I worked with the Splunk Professional Services, I found some difference between the training contents and the information from PS. In addition is required a long experience on Splunk Enterprise for the data ingestion part, in other words I'm able to work with ES because I'm worling on Splunk since 11 years, otherwise I'd some problem.

It's a fantatic product and it was very useful the presence of Splunk Professional Services for the Design Phase and the final Health Check.

Alternatives Considered
LogRhythm is good for a team comprising mostly non-technical IT users. Unlike Splunk, it has a GUI log search and a good ticketing system. Splunk is better than Logrhythm for me as it provides me with the ultimate flexibility to write custom queries. Scalyr is a good tool and quite frankly lot faster than Splunk. However, I prefer Splunk because of its better Dashboards and panel customization abilities. Elastic is another amazing tool. It is hard to choose between the two especially because both have different sets of logs on them. I use both. Elastic for internal server logs, Splunk for everything else.

McAfee brand is used, mcafee antivirus scan, mcafee drive encryption, mcafee DLP, mcafee cloud proxy. He Kaspersky at the corporate level and used his admin dashboard is a bit rough. I recommend mcafee since the graphical environment is very friendly with the administrator. We selected it because at the administration level it is more comfortable, support for end users is very easy, the administration console can create roles and segregate permissions.
