Development from open sources is very valuable but a huge infrastructure is required

The solution's command line should be simpler so that routine commands can be used. The search configuration is a bit different than other OEMs or SIEM solutions like ArcSight or QRadar that are easy to search because they operate similarly. The logic is there and the solution supplies a pretty good explanation. Basically, DNIF spelled out is the opposite of FIND. You have to find commands whenever you want to search something. For example, a highway gets you to your destination but there is an alternate way people don't yet know about. Gartner or Forrester haven't yet studied it. We were a bit nervous when we were trying to get familiar with the solution. We wondered if we could realize ROI because the commands and ways of pulling data were different to us. We raised a case with the support team and their professionals provided the needed support. The command line is user friendly once you understand it. If you need immediate use, then you might want to get assistance from someone who is well-versed in methods for using key patterns to find things. Lengthier files for threat hunting or analysis are needed. The correlation happens, but exporting a large number of files to abstract them is not possible. For example, I want to present raw data to management so I should be able to customize a date range in my query and download the files.

Comprehensive log analysis has improved traffic monitoring and streamlined risk mitigation

Fortinet FortiAnalyzer is a very comprehensive analyzer providing detailed analyzing features and customizable reports. I can get customization and custom reports, and there are many functions available. It is very good for any organization.Log management in Fortinet FortiAnalyzer is excellent, as it stores approximately two years of logs. Using Fortinet FortiAnalyzer, I analyze vulnerability risks and threats and sort out problems accordingly. I then create policies and mitigate the risk based on my findings. I have created many customizable reports in Fortinet FortiAnalyzer. I have customized the reports to schedule them and generate reports every day that are sent to my email. I am not using any SIEMs, but Fortinet FortiAnalyzer is the best and looks like a SIEM. I did not integrate Fortinet FortiAnalyzer with any security information and event management solutions. With Fortinet FortiAnalyzer, I have streamlined the process to mitigate risks and save time to get event information on any type of threats, risks, and unwanted traffic. Risk and time are saved, and it is valuable for any organization.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I like the MITRE table, a feature I saw for the first time in the same solution. There was one MITRE tactic table, which can be used to identify threats if you have all kinds of rules enabled or if you have rules for all the tactics in the MITRE table. There are 14 tables in MITRE, and those 14 tables consist of multiple columns, tactics, and techniques. It was one of the first SIEM tools I saw that had that particular MITRE table. On that basis, you can create new rules and identify existing ones. At any point, if an alert is triggered, it will try to match it to any of those MITRE tactics. I liked that creating a workbook on MITRE business was straightforward. I also like that you can search using SQL or DQL."

"The benefit of DNIF was that the solution was able to detect any anomalies and identify and prevent any possible security threats or attacks."

"It was one of the first SIEM tools I saw that had that particular MITRE table."

"If you're an enterprise company and want to scale your productivity for log monitoring purposes, I found DNIF a better option than Splunk which has more complex software."

"Great for scaling productivity for log monitoring purposes."

"The beauty of the solution is that you can develop infrastructure for a data lake using open sources that are separate from the licenses."

"The dashboard is helpful, and it creates visualizations to let staff review event data and identify patterns and anomalies."

"The response time on queries is super-fast."

More DNIF HYPERCLOUD pros

"Technical reports clearly identify system checks, locations and areas, how many times things escape, which firewall is affected, and source IDs."

"We are using this solution, and we are getting good results."

"With Fortinet FortiAnalyzer, it is easy to get reports and read specific logs."

"FortiAnalyzer ensures you have an accurate view of all your devices, so you don't need to check each one."

"The solution is very easy to deploy."

"I find it easy to deploy Fortinet products, including the firewall, Fortinet FortiAnalyzer, and many other Fortinet products."

"Log View is the most valuable part for us, as we can view logs from different Fortigates on a single GUI."

"This makes it easy to configure and use. I would recommend it to anyone."

More Fortinet FortiAnalyzer pros

Cons

"The vendor is fairly new and it's not as big as some of the international competitors. It's not a mature product. If you ask them to move data, it might take a lot of time."

"The EBA could be improved."

"There are currently some issues with machine learning plug-ins."

"DNIF HYPERCLOUD is not a stable product compared to other tools like IBM QRadar."

"The solution should be able to connect to endpoints, such as desktops and laptops."

"I feel that DNIF needs to invest more in marketing, considering that it operates at a very competitive speed."

"I used version 8 which was not at all stable. The services and processor keep going down, we had to manually keep them up increasing storage space because services are down, and logs not processed."

"I think DNIF HYPERCLOUD can implement the ability to export more than 100,000. At the moment, we can't go beyond that. So many times, if you're checking for the firewall logs and working on something related to authentication or network-related traffic, while that log count is low, the account goes beyond that. You can't restrict the logs or the amount of data you can export. It's very important for my situation. It would be better if they could increase the capacity of exports. Although there are many more types of searching in DNIF HYPERCLOUD, people still struggle to query out what they want because not everyone is good at SQL or DQL. The easiest way to query out in DNIF is using the GUI-based interface. But in the GUI interface, you can use operator calls. It gets tricky when you want to search for a specific type of event. You don't know where it will be passed and whether it will be consistent. In the initial phase, it's tough for us to use DNIF. You cannot pass every event in a stable DNIF. When we used that particular tool, we used to get those logs, but sometimes many things are not getting passed. So, we used to export the sheet or export the data into Excel and weigh the required details. In the next release, I would like them to improve the export of the columns and make the application more user-friendly. I would also like a threat-hunting feature in the next release."

More DNIF HYPERCLOUD cons

"I feel that Fortinet FortiAnalyzer is a little bit heavy, making it an area where improvements are required."

"The technical support is not very reliable. Sometimes it takes them up to a week to get back to us."

"The only issue that I can see is with the cost. For example, if you buy support for one year, you are messed up next year. It's better to buy another gateway."

"It should have customized reports as well. While it currently has them, you need to write a script which is not straightforward."

"FortiAnalyzer only integrates with Fortinet solutions. That is a limitation because many organizations use multiple vendors. It's often a mixture of Cisco network hardware and equipment from other vendors, such as switches, access points, etc."

"Fortinet FortiAnalyzer needs to improve its pricing flexibility."

"It is a pretty big software package. It has a lot of features which maybe aren't that useful."

"The integration with other vendors for log collection could be enhanced."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution requires a huge infrastructure and that is costly."

"Price-wise, the product is quite economical. I rate the solution's price as three or four on a scale of one to ten, where one is considered to be a very economically priced tool."

"The pricing is based on the log size."

"In the local market sometimes people are being charged more than other solutions. Although the market is competitive, legitimate suppliers do not receive a large enough discount to pass onto the customers."

"I rate Fortinet FortiAnalyzer's pricing as five out of ten."

"I believe that these devices were procured with a five-year maintenance and support license up front. I work at a university, so the vendor provides a considerable higher ed discount."

"It is expensive for small business customers. It is only available for customers with a high number of firewalls to manage or to report. If a customer has only five boxes of FortiGate, the price of FortiAnalyzer can be more than the five boxes. So, we can't easily put this solution for small business customers."

"The program is expensive."

"The price is quite expensive. Fortinet products are very expensive. That is something which they should also look at, because if you compare Fortinet product to, say, Sophos for example, Fortinet is really high and that's the only thing which is a drawback for most users."

"Its worth spending on FortiAnalyzer if you have multiple firewalls in your network."

"The company's choice to utilize Fortinet FortiAnalyzer was based on the overall security strategy and compatibility with existing solutions. It was deemed the best fit as it provided a centralized point of visibility for all of their security solution, including Fortinet FortiGate firewall, FortiClient, Forti EMS, and FortiAP. The company conducted a thorough evaluation of various solutions in the market but found that none of them could fully integrate and manage all their solutions as effectively as Fortinet FortiAnalyzer."
