Overall Satisfaction with AlienVault USM

AlienVault USM is being used by my entire organization for log aggregation and analysis in support of PCI compliance activities. It allows us to quickly identify security threats for 100+ remote and on-prem users, providing a 'single pane of glass' to view identity, networking, and workstation issues across the enterprise.
  • Identifies possible spurious identify (Windows AD) changes and manipulation.
  • Identifies installation of possible malware.
  • Analyzed all activities and filters for only those with a potential negative security impact.
  • Closing an Investigation does not close the attached alarms.
  • Vulnerability Scanning interfaces/process is complicated to use.
  • Vulnerability Scanning allows far too many assets to be specified at once, resulting in timeouts and ambiguous results.
AlienVault was recommended by our PCI consultants.
AlienVault USM works well for a cloud/remote/on-prem environment where AV is also centralized (to allow for cross-checking findings). It would be perhaps less well suited to a cloud-only environment with remote users.
