Alert Logic: An awesome layered defense product
We use Alert Logic Network Threat Detection to augment our on-premise staff who are engaged in other duties. The service was fairly easy to implement, and management of the product was quite easy. We would get a call anytime we were seeing attacks of any type, usually 2-3 times a week for something more than a script kiddie trying to probe our network defenses. In conjunction with Akamai, who we use for WAF functionality, the Alert Logic product was a solid companion.
- The managed solution took the detection of network threats off of our very full plates.
- Required little intervention from me as a network engineer once it was in place.
- The staff at Alert Logic were top notch, and we felt as though they were an extension of our team.
- When we chose Alert Logic, they did not have an IPS solution but intended to use another product to protect our environment and web farm.
- The product relies on someone to call you after the attack starts.
- There are no protection mechanisms once an attack is noticed to shut it down. However, using a layered defense as we do, it did not affect us nearly as much as without.
- Positive: Staff Augmentation allowed our staff to focus on priorities that are key to our company's success.
- In conjunction with Akamai WAF, we saw a 95% drop in malicious traffic hitting our web front ends.
- This product is not effective at blocking attacks without another layer. You need to be aware of this going in.
How well the Alert Logic team, and ours integrated; plus costs were the biggest factors in selection. Ease of implementation and someone watching our back 24/7/365 made the selection of this product easy. Secondly, it helped us keep our WAF vendor honest on what types of attacks they were and were not catching.

Alert Logic, The Cloud Alternative
Previously we used Logrhythm to collect syslogs on an on primus server. Logrhythm is/was very convoluted and almost required a dedicated person to manage the system. Alert Logic is a cloud managed service that removed the need for an on primus dedicated person to constantly review logs and determine if there was an issue. The main users of this is our security team.
- The cloud managed service; the cost benefit and 24x7 monitoring
- The Alert system went from possibly 24 hours to 1 hour
- The benefit of nothing having to write our own queries
- The interface is a little lacking from a search perspective but its not really meant for us to have to do the work
- The cloud service vs have an on prim dedicated person
- 24x7 monitoring
- The detailed threat analysis
If anyone has ever used Cisco products to manage threat detection they will tell you that, while Cisco products are good, they aren't the most user friendly. Multiple pieces are needed to do what Alert Logic can do in one product. The user interface is ok and the search function isn't the best but the whole point of cloud manage is just that.

Barkly is an AV to help protect against future nastiness
Barkly is our primary end-user and server anti-virus program. We use this company-wide, for all end-users. This helps our end users protect against virus, malware and the like and it also alerts me to any issues that may arise on my network.
- Stops programs from making changes to users' system - this can be hit or miss, but I'd rather have a false positive and have to override it, then a virus on my systems.
- The override system for false positives is very simple and easy to use - if a program throws up a flag, it is very easy to tell Barkly to leave it alone and it will do this network-wide, which is nice for things like updates.
- Very lightweight, small install and leaves almost no footprint on your system. Also system resource utilization is very light.
- There is no visible icon that it is installed unless you go into Add/Remove programs, locally you would not know its there.
- If an update is installed (i.e. Windows Update) and Barkly flags it, you will get SPAMMed with alerts until it is overridden. An easy fix but can be annoying if you are on your way in and not at the office yet.
- Reporting is a bit lit in the Admin console - installs, and updates, but not much else.
- Getting better, but when they update their product, there wasn't much warning originally. A bit unsettling when you log into your console and see every one of your end users out-of-date.
- Decently priced for AVs
- Has protected against several viruses, and that right there is enough to warrant purchase, any virus stopped is money saved
- Low impact on users, so they aren't complaining of slowness on their computers when scanning (it does not scan traditionally)
- Trend Micro and Sophos Endpoint Protection
I've found Barkly to be much better than these products at protecting my systems. It does not require the horsepower that these do to run. It uses systems resources well. It protects well. It alerts and updates well. This is a good AV system to have on your endpoints and is a sound financial investment if you are looking to protect your assets from virus/malware/ransomware.

Alert Logic and SIEM solved!
We use Alert Logic Log Correlation and Analysis across our suite of AWS cloud based services which supports over 10,000 users in a health care setting. For us, it provides the right level of security information and event management to protect our assets from current cyber threats. It also provides business assurance around information security and allows us to understand potential risks and deal with them.
- Alert Logic provides very technical solutions to address security risks. However much of the benefit is from a human level understanding of the threats seen.
- As a company, they are profiling thousands of companies and are better able to predict threats such as denial of service attacks and warn organisations ahead of time.
- Overall the product and service works well and addresses all our key requirements so we have no real negatives to share.
- Return on Investment is measured in how protected our reputation is and Alert Logic contributes to this is a large way.
- Alert Logic provides excellent information security assurance to the business and allows us to feel more proactive.
- SolarWinds Log & Event Manager
There are alternatives some of which have a greater overhead and require more in-house technical skills. Alert Logic provide a full service so for us this was a better solution.
