Overall Satisfaction with Cisco Secure Network Analytics (Stealthwatch)

We got access to Stealthwatch with our Cisco Umbrella. We went with the on-premise version of Stealthwatch and like the product. We're sending in DNS, VPC Flow logs, etc and like how it pulls that and processes it and really cleans up the noise. Currently looking to get it fully-integrated with our SIEM.
  • Breaks down network data into categories like Recon, exploit, etc,
  • Good data around usage (categorized as Data Hoarding)
  • Alarms broken out by TTP
  • There is an appliance, so you do need to set that up
  • Not many issues or concerns
  • Aggregation
  • Filtering out the noise
  • Integration into our SIEM
  • This gave us better insight into our existing DNS logs
  • Better visibility into our AWS VPC flow logs
We use this in concert with Stealthwatch to help cut through the noise and get quicker drilldown times.

Would you buy Cisco Secure Network Analytics again?

Yes

On of our use cases that we needed help with was around vulnerability data, netflow, and infrastructure logs all coming together to get anomaly detection. We are limited by what we can send to our SIEM, so seeing this do a lot of the leg work before we send it is very nice.
