Microsoft Sentinel vs. Splunk SOAR

I'll go with where it's very suited in certain industries, including ours where the data resides or where it's being sent is incredibly important. So because the data stays within Microsoft World Garden, we are able to piggyback off of a lot of those certifications and meet certain requirements that allow us to expand where we sell our product to outside of scopes that we couldn't reach ourselves.

Our company has very complex and dynamic security operations because of the large number of security tools and systems that we need to manage and coordinate. Moreover, it helps us to meet many regulatory and compliance requirements because it helps us to automate and document our security operations. We also use it to streamline our security operations and improve our response to potential threats.

• It is a good tool for threat detection and analysis of the threats. We are using this tool for real time threat detection on our employee machines as well as some servers.
• It provides various options for collecting data sources by leveraging multiple sources using data connectors. This helps us in gathering data from multiple sources such as our servers as well as our employee machines.
• One good thing about this tool is automated incident response thereby increasing the security of servers.

Incentivized

• Its security orchestration and integration capability that supports multiple tools.
• Easy coding that automates our security actions.
• Enables us to easily collaborate and respond to security issues faster.
• Splunk SOAR is a flexible product that is easy to deploy.
• Efficient tracking and monitoring capability.
• Excellent real-time reporting functionality.

• It takes some time to learn how to use and install it properly, and it does not connect effectively with external PaaS systems such as Salesforce CRM, Salesforce Commerce Cloud, and so on.
• Microsoft can simplify the display of the logs to make them easier to study, and the user interface occasionally delays, which can also be enhanced.

Incentivized

• A lack of instruction It can be difficult to contact the support staff. Limited experience from current users.
• It takes some effort to set up and learn new technology at first. More assistance is required from the support staff. The product's price needs to go down.
• Cost of the larger version.

As we already have a lot of clients being catered with Splunk SOAR and because Splunk SOAR is robust and efficient, we are already using it, and we have understood the product to a certain extent, I feel we are personally more enticed to use and scale it to a lot of business.

The Microsoft Azure Sentinel solution is very good and even better if you use Azure. It's easy to implement and learn how to use the tool with an intuitive and simple interface. New updates are happening to always bring new news and improve the experience and usability. The solution brings reliability as it is from a very reliable manufacturer.

Not immediate: it always requires a training.

We are able to automate almost every one of our use cases, even our threat-hunting, and threat intel procedures. We have 20+ playbooks and cover almost everything, even searching logs into Splunk, looking into TIP and external systems, enrichment, and collecting evidence for analysts; it can perform concurrent playbooks running.

Azure Sentinel is very easy to use and configure. If you are stuck somewhere, Microsoft support is excellent in assisting and solving your issue.

Splunk Support is always great! In addition the Community is very efficient and active.

I never followed an in-person training, I gave my evaluation based on the online training

I followed training for Phantom admins and it opened a world for me

I already said that the main key insight is the knowledge of Phantom, so a detailed training for all the people involeved.

I use most of the Sims that are out there, but RSAs, old Sim Log, logic, elastic, a lot of them. Sumo, we checked out Sumo too. We're a Microsoft shop and live almost entirely on top of a Microsoft ecosystem. We are considering other Microsoft security products to integrate with it. So it made a lot of sense to really drive as hard as we could Microsoft Sim at least for a few years to make sure it would fit us.

Splunk Phantom integrates well with Splunk ES and has many integrations. One thing that I liked about XSOAR as compared to Phantom is that it has an "app-store" where you can download not only app integrations (similar to Phantom) but Playbooks and dashboards as well.

me and the customers I encountered found it flexible and scalable

• Log Management is a little difficult in-house as everything is situated on the cloud.
• Paying according to the throughput of the data can be costlier for some organizations.
• Excellent integration and log parsing for Microsoft products save many man-hours for the SIEM admin to focus on other things.

Incentivized

• The playbooks are valuable. They are the core component. Being able to implement and build a code process to work through and scale out what we want to do is valuable
• Before its use, analyzing each email would take at least 15 to 20 minutes, with some complex cases taking up to 30 minutes...With the automation provided by Splunk Phantom, we could significantly reduce the amount of time and human effort required to complete this task
