Overall Satisfaction with AlienVault USM

We started using AlienVault USM two years ago. We choose AlienVault as IDS device to monitor network activity and security on one of the two company locations. Last year we tested the integration with our Antimalware solution and monitoring some logs that come from Linux server. Initially, we used it on the premises. Currently, we migrate to Saas, adding the second company location and we are evaluating to replace other SIEM solutions. The solution is used by the IT department (Networking and Information Security areas).
  • Existent connectors for common IT infrastructure equipment (brands) simplify initial configuration a lot.
  • Dashboarding and reporting capabilities permits that you can see relevant information in a single view.
  • Availability to train in Spanish would really help us a lot.
Currently,, we use Splunk, not implemented as a SIEM, but configured to monitor some security events.
Correlation of events with different tools like firewall, web filtering, and anti-malware, is very valuable. Integration of other kinds of logs. Monitoring Linux logs in our case.
