N-Able Adlumin Security Operations vs. Securonix Next-Generation SIEM

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.

The best part of Securonix is it's architecture which makes it scalable and allows it to add any new feature to match the requirement. Securonix is well suited for enterprises who are mid to large size and are looking for a quick time to value, do not want to put upfront capex and invest less on the service layer. It becomes little costly for a small sized organisation.

• 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.

Incentivized

• A robust automated response mechanism via Playbooks.
• Thorough documentation on search query syntax.
• Built-in Graph/chart creation based on query results.
• A quick and responsive support team.

• 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.

• There is a steep learning curve for the platform.
• Developing your own analytics can be challenging due to the depth and complexity of the analytics engine.

We love the security it provides our clients and for us.

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.

Securonix Next-Generation SIEM provides loads of features that can be utilized as per business requirements. With the Securonix Jupyter update, the feature set is fine tuned for efficient implementation. The SOAR platform will complete the product for automated response on top of the alerting capabilities. The primary factor for selecting a SIEM will include the support model. While implementing and currently using Securonix Next-Generation SIEM in our environment, we have experienced the best support provided by the SIEM team in all aspects.

Securonix acts with urgency to support day to day operational issues & queries and shows a real commitment to us as a partner. I rate this an 8 because there are still some bumps in the road, instances where communications can be sparse or unclear.

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.

I have worked with the Securonix PS team and they have done a good job so far.

• 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.

• Securonix Next-Generation SIEM has reduced the amount of overhead required for environment monitoring by 15%!
