Overall Satisfaction with AlienVault USM

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I use AlienVault to protect our network from the threats we would otherwise not have known exist.

Pros and Cons

Pros

AlienVault shows intrusion attempts, where they're coming from, what device they're attempting to attack, and what account they're attempting to use.

Cons

The configuration was not the easiest.
Adding customization usually requires an experienced AlienVault consultant to complete.

Alternatives Considered

I don't recall the competitors we tested before choosing AlienVault but I do know that for the cost, it provided the best value and most comprehensive statistics.

Likelihood to Recommend

I believe that any IT department would find at least some use for AlienVault. The threats you are unaware of are the ones that cause the most issues and AlienVault helps with that.
