Has improved threat detection with deep log analysis and streamlined investigation workflows
The most useful features I find in Elastic Security are the forensic ones that allow us to carry deeper analysis into the logs for in-depth investigations, and the dashboards, with the reporting dashboard being quite user-friendly. Elastic Security is quite good at identifying threats, as it is part of the deep investigation tool that I mentioned before. Unless we need to look further into a certain log, we can carry out a deeper analysis and forensics on those particular logs. I can assess the impact of Elastic Security's real-time data analysis on our threat response efficiency as working pretty good. We are looking for real-time analysis because we have a continuous inflow of logs from different sources: from our cloud, from Active Directory, from our network. So it works pretty well.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"ELK Logstash is easy and fast, at least for the initial setup with the out of box uses."
"Elastic Security is a highly flexible platform that can be implemented anywhere."
"The most valuable feature of Elastic Security is that you can install agents, and they are not separately licensed."
"The performance is good and it is faster than IBM QRadar."
"The stability of the solution is good."
"It is the best open-source product for people working in SO, managing and analyzing logs."
"Elastic Security makes data communication easier."
"One of the most valuable features of this solution is that it is more flexible than AlienVault."
"The security level that they are maintaining with the pre-authentication keys is very good."
 

Cons

"There is room for improvement in the Kibana dashboard and in the asset management for the program."
"Sometimes, the solution isn't the easiest to use."
"It is difficult to anticipate and understand the space utilization, so more clarity there would be great."
"Elastic Security consumes a lot of resources, requiring a substantial deployment setup."
"I think because we are a cybersecurity company, the thing that can be improved is the prebuilt tools, especially quality. Compared to its competitor, they still have fewer prebuilt security rules. Elastic Security, in terms of generating alerts, cannot group the same products into one another. Even though the alerts are the same, they still generate them one by one. So, it is very noisy in our dashboard. I would like the Elastic Security admin to group all the same alarms into one alarm so that our dashboard is not noisy."
"In terms of improvement, there could be more automation in responding to and evaluating detections."
"Authentication is not a default in Kibana. We need to have another tool to have authentication and authorization. These two should be part of Kibana."
"The solution should generate an automatic product that integrates with ELK Stack to use artificial intelligence."
"The solution could improve by providing better documentation for beginners to learn, such as videos or other tutorials."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I can say that the product is cheaply priced."
"Compared to other products such as Dynatrace, this is one of the cheaper options."
"Affordable but with additional costs"
"The solution is free."
"It's a monthly cost with Elastic SIEM, but I am not sure of the exact cost."
"The solution is not expensive and costs around ten dollars a month."
"Its price is fine. Its licensing works on a yearly basis. We have to renew the license every year. I also have a good experience with Darktrace. When we buy Darktrace, we get training free of cost, which is not there in Elastic. We have to pay extra for training. There is certainly room for improvement."
"The pricing is in the middle. I think it is not an expensive experience if we compare it with big names, for example, QRadar, and also Oxide. I think Elastic Security is quite cheap. I would rate the pricing of this solution a five out of ten."
"The solution is not expensive for the data security measure you receive, it is reasonable."
