Global Director at a computer software company with 51-200 employees
Proactive dark web intelligence has reduced breach impact and protects organizations quietly
Cybersixgill has one of the largest data lakes around. I think the way they can be improved is to be able to initially during the onboarding, make sure that the false positives are correctly addressed to really do the tweaks that need to be done to filter through exactly what the organization is trying to accomplish and give them the outcomes they are looking for without all the extra noise or chatter. I just think during the onboarding, that is the most crucial part to make sure that the organizations who purchase Cybersixgill ensure that they actually have the right person or persons to go through the onboarding to make sure that the data lake feeds can be properly set up and organized so it can filter through the noise and the chatter.

Centralized visibility has improved SOC investigations and supports faster, more accurate incident response
I think ReliaQuest GreyMatter could be improved further in a few areas. First, I want to see more flexibility in dashboard customization so analysts can configure views based on their roles and investigation requirements. Second, improving alert correlation accuracy and reducing overall false positive rates would help analysts focus on genuine possible threats rather than spending time validating repetitive low-priority alerts or false positives. Third, more detailed investigation timelines, better reporting capabilities, and simpler investigation integration configuration would make the platform more effective. I suggest continuously improving automation workflows to reduce repetitive manual tasks while allowing analysts to maintain control over critical response actions. Overall, I think these enhancements can make the platform more user-friendly and improve the efficiency of SOC operations. One additional improvement would be enhancing the investigation experience by providing more detailed context directly within the alert. For example, having a clear incident timeline, related alerts, historical activity, and threat intelligence information available in one place would make investigations easier. I believe these improvements would make day-to-day SOC operations smoother and allow analysts to focus more on proactive threat hunting and other complex investigations.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The solution’s approach of using limited open source intelligence and focusing, instead, on the Deep Web and Dark Web is what seals the deal. That is why I like them. I have other tools that I can aggregate all the open source intelligence from. I value Cybersixgill because it provides access to things that no one else does."
"The size and scope of the solution’s collection is amazing, and when we compare what other solutions can and cannot do, we see how Cybersixgill Investigative Portal is superior in many ways."
"Rather than hiring more analysts, we have been able to do more with less and automate some of our investigation functions."
"If I conducted research manually it would take one week, but by using Sixgill it takes two hours or three hours."
"I have been very vocal about how much this tool has helped."
"The advanced analysis has made our security operations more efficient. It has also potentially given us quicker access to data that we might not have otherwise located."
"They also provide some of the greatest notification capabilities. I put in a customer's company name and domain names, or sometimes I put in their IP addresses as a keyword. Once Sixgill collects information that includes those keywords, they then provide us email notifications. That means we can catch information related to our customers as soon as possible."
"Cybersixgill has positively impacted our organization significantly because it helps us by providing leaked information in case a client is being attacked."
"One of the best features that ReliaQuest GreyMatter offers is the ability to bring together security tools and data that support threat investigation, detection, and response."
"ReliaQuest GreyMatter saves around 60% of time or resources."
"ReliaQuest GreyMatter has helped us to reduce security incidents by 89%, which is a significant amount of incidents we have seen."
 

Cons

"We need real-time updated information. If we could have this, it would be amazing."
"We need real-time updated information. If we could have this, it would be amazing. For example, if someone was posting something, then ten second later, it was on the platform. Sometimes, it takes a minute or hours right now, depending on the forum."
"Sixgill has strong capabilities based on search queries, but there is some difficulty in using Sixgill. Their querying is very powerful but it can be difficult. It's not hugely complex but you need some skill to use Sixgill querying."
"I want to highlight that sometimes Cybersixgill retrieves leak information from the past two years, which can be very irrelevant to the client."
"Regarding their scraping abilities, things could be solidified. There are definitely improvements that could be made on the specificity for setting certain queries."
"I think the way they can be improved is to be able to initially during the onboarding, make sure that the false positives are correctly addressed to really do the tweaks that need to be done to filter through exactly what the organization is trying to accomplish and give them the outcomes they are looking for without all the extra noise or chatter."
"The breadth of access to data is good, but there are gaps."
"The breadth of access to data is good, but there are gaps. More data would be my suggestion because the platform is good and I have no complaints about the system. I think it is just a case of always trying to get more data sources."
"Areas that have room for improvement include user interface and integration."
"ReliaQuest GreyMatter is stable to a certain extent, but there is still some room for improvement."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is cheap compared with Recorded Future. Sixgill's cost-effectiveness is very good."
"The pricing and licensing are good. It is expensive for us because the US dollar is quite strong compared to our dollar. Otherwise, it is quite reasonable for what it is. All the tools in the market are around the same price from my experience."
"Sometimes, Cybersixgill Investigative Portal is cheaper than its competitors."
