Overall Satisfaction with AlienVault USM

Multi-layered network security is essential in order to protect your network from today's advanced threats. But when all else fails, you need that one extra step, the last nail in the coffin so to speak that identifies a problem using all the available data. That last step for total security is the deployment of AlienVault. AlienVault provides high level, affordable SIEM and security analysis that will detect breaches as well as vulnerabilities on your network. Combined with our managed services, your company will not only have the visibility that AlienVault provides, but the manpower as well to monitor the network either 8x5 or 24x7.
  • Correlation of HIDS, NIDS, and security devices attached to your network.
  • Vulnerability scanner included.
  • Reporting and notification functions work flawlessly.
  • With every product I evaluate, I would like to see a better system of creating custom reports.
There are a number of likely competitors, however, price and performance, you would not be better with any other product.
AlienVault is a valuable security piece of any network that requires some level of security compliance, or any company that has intellectual property. It is a very affordable solution for small and mid-sized companies. It can be sized to handle enterprise accounts with additional individual components. [Also well suited for] additional remote sensors, deployment of HIDS sensors, as well as NIDS ports.
