USM Appliance (On-Premises)

Overall Satisfaction with AlienVault USM

We use AlienVault USM as the SIEM for a large healthcare organization with numerous disparate sites and a small security team. We also employ a SOCaaS to help optimize and monitor for 24x7 operations.
  • Lots of ability to generate reports.
  • Solid appliances ingest many sources.
  • Default settings are a bit esoteric and require outside expertise for optimization.
  • AI isn’t really catching as much as I thought it would.
This is well suited to small organizations that need a SIEM but can’t justify Splunk or LogRhythm.
