    If you don't already have a system in place for anomoly detection, log monitoring, and alerting, you're doing your company a disservice. Whether Adlumin is the best choice for you depends on your budget and technology stack, but overall, Adlumin has been one of the best security purchases made by our company in the last few years, and has paid for itself by automatically preventing and protecting against specific attacks that were non-attacks due to Adlumin stopping them before they could start.

    I enjoy how well it integrates Cisco systems to provide a single pane of glass for security events that are easily digestible to the SOC. However there is room for improvement to integrate more seamlessly with non Cisco products. XDR is great to identify where malicious processes are in the MITR kill chain and is useful for threat analysis.

    • Impossible Travel Identification and Isolation.
    • Device isolation in Standalone mode (not looking at S1).
    • Alerting on new app registrations, GA permissions, email rule creation in M365.

    Cons
    N-able
    • After an alert has been "Cleared" by internal IT, there should be no further action taken by the SOC team or the AI agent.
    • When there is an active internal incident or problem with Adlumin, there should be a notice in the incident or on the platform's active issues board about issues that may affect Adlumin agents. This would save people who have to respond a lot of time.
    • Have not been able to get one forwarder to function properly, despite documentation from a technician and the platform documentation. This is frustrating when a Windows collector option is available but doesn't work at all.
    • I have noticed some SentinelOne detections do not warrant responses or actions from the Adlumin team. These are usually repeated flags that do not require action, but some do, and some do not. I can't figure out what we reference specifically to determine a response from SOC or AI.

    Usability
    N-able
    A number of integrations were simple to set up and well documented, but a few things were difficult or undocumented yet. Some sections feel over-complicated and others feel way too vague during the setup process. Once the onboarding is finished though, the product is very simple, but there is a learning curve at the beginning.

    ArcticWolf has been a great product that we have used, but the ability that Adlumin has is extremely comparable for a fraction of the price. There are no hardware requirements with Adlumin, but it still has all of the abilities as ArcticWolf without the overheard. Again, the SOAR actions are a game changer when it comes to automation and immediate action.

    While both products were both easy to use and would have fit our environment, we are a very heavy Cisco shop and Cisco Cisco XDR fit better with the rest of our software portfolio. Stellar Cyber has some additional functionality in addition to Cisco XDR but the cost difference didn't work with our budget.

    Return on Investment
    N-able
    • We used to be with an MSP before I was hired, and the company spent over 20K per year for that service. With N-Able, we have reduced the cost by over half.
    • I spend minimal time now patching computers because this is all automated. I sometimes have to patch a couple of machines because I missed a patch, but it has saved me a great deal of time.
    • I save a great deal of time with Board Reports because they are automatically generated for me each month.
