Scenarios most suited -1) All the Cyber Security focused development environments2) Definitely a must for Financial Clients since it deals with live money transactions - Hence it is imperative to keep the Network and tech asset environment secure, and compliant to standards3) IAM is another area where it plays an IMP part - For eg one of our healthcare clients where they wanted to restrict access4) Dashboards are also great, we can share the results to GISO/CISO level folks - Custom dashboard feature

Pros: Splunk is very well suited if you have multiple log sources of related data. All of them can be correlated and tasks can be automated based on the requirement. Other than alerts, Splunk can also run a specific script of your choice, based on some defined conditions. Cons: If you have a few logs but a large number of log sources, Splunk can be very expensive.

Cons
Check Point CloudGuard Posture Management
- There is not a comprehensive amount of documentation on how to set up best practices.
- Our initial set up assistance from Proofpoint approved vendor did not go smoothly.
- The ability to add more customized widgets in the main overview screen would be helpful.

- At times some queries can run slowly if indices are not on a portion of the query you use.
- Setup time initially can be difficult if your logs aren't stored in common locations or in a common way to write the log.
- Ability to ingest logs from different locations without having to change code to put logs in a certain place (pro and con).
- Searches can be a bit more difficult to look through if your log isn't pulled in a manner that is easy to read through splunk.

We are using Splunk extensively in our projects and we have recently upgraded to Splunk version 6.0 which is quite efficient and giving expected results. We keep track of updates and new features Splunk introduces periodically and try to introduce those features in our day to day activities for improvement in our reporting system and other tasks.

You can literally throw in a single word into Splunk and it will pull back all instances of that word across all of your logs for the time span you select (provided you have permission to see that data). We have several users who have taken a few of the free courses from Splunk that are able to pull data out of it everyday with little help at all.

Splunk maintains a well resourced support system that has been consistent since we purchased the product. They help out in a timely manner and provide expert level information as needed. We typically open cases online and communicate when possible via e-mail and are able to resolve most issues with that method.

Check Point CloudGuard Posture Management
First and foremost reason of our client selecting CheckPoint CloudGuard Posture Management / Dome9 was because they already had CheckPoint Firewalls which are in active use e.g. R75.40 and R82.x products. Customization Vs these other Vendors is another great assetReporting is one more standout feature, + Multi-cloud capabilities Centralized dashboarding is smooth to navigate as compared to other VendorsSyslog handling is much better as compared to some other vendors , Memory and space issues if planned well are less

I wanted to learn a new language that I can quickly master and implement. Splunk is easy, fun to use and best of all, it can be developed in hours not days or weeks. Splunk is fundamentally a programming language that is minimal but yet powerful enough to collect, analyze and visualize data.

- Overall very positive. It has provided visibility to what is going on within our network.
- One drawback is the time it takes to get up to speed with the application, but this is up to the user, and Splunk education is excellent.
- In my field, IT Security, there are few other friends to have in your back pocket better than Splunk. They are just that good.
