Aggregates logs in one place and helps to review data points
We tried Graylog Security, starting with their inexpensive open-source version. We tested it out and continued using it for a while. As for the main differences between Graylog Security and other vendors, some users might prefer cloud-based platforms over on-premises solutions. It isn't inherently cloud-native, but that might not matter much for some.

Alarm correlation has improved incident investigations and streamlines multi-vendor security operations
There is room for improvement for Trellix Helix Connect; I see some direction that they still could improve. The most problematic part was the integration part because in their catalog, they have so many third-party vendors, but some of them were not fully supported, so we requested some development and feature requests. Sometimes we saw that some documentation was not enough to integrate the third-party vendor's product. However, they improved their documentation, so it was a good experience. Everyone expected that we could use an XDR solution as on-premises; they could make some improvement on this point, which is a priority for some institutions. I am not sure what additional functionalities I would like to see in the future for Trellix Helix Connect; they could add some AI features, basically machine learning capabilities, and also improvements in the chatbot feature, but it was at the first stage an average.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We use the solution to collect logs."
"The tool aggregates logs. We can see the logs in one place."
"The solution is very high-quality and offers a very small number of false positives, so we don't have to get distracted by checking up on false data and making sure nothing is wrong."
"It is kind of simple and very easily deployable, and you can start working with it very fast."
"With FireEye Helix, if a customer already uses any of the FireEye endpoint solutions, the response part is very fast and the investigation is also very fast."
"The most valuable features include predefined use cases and threatening states."
"The product offers very strong automation. Our cyber security analysts don't have to correlate the information to detect problems. They only need to analyze problems that have been identified by the platform."
"In general, I can say that Trellix Helix Connect impacted my organization positively."
"It is kind of simple and very easily deployable. You can start working with it very fast."
"The integration is very useful and very easy. You can have an API connection with any cloud and I'll be able to do both ways of communication with the help of APA."
 

Cons

"Graylog Security needs to incorporate security scorecards."
"FireEye Helix would be improved with the option of an on-prem version, which they don't currently offer."
"The support would rate a three out of ten. It can take one to four weeks to connect with someone who truly understands Helix and can provide solutions."
"Integrations could be improved, and the dashboard could be a little better."
"We have certain challenges with integrating the SOAR platform with multiple vendors."
"Sometimes the rules are disabled by FireEye, and we basically get it after the patch. I think there needs to be a better way of creating the application rules. I would like to see better pricing for our licensing."
"We have certain challenges with integrating the SOAR platform with multiple vendors."
"There is room for improvement in the integration capabilities of third-party tools."
"Trellix needs to address the price for the product to be more appealing to customers."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I rate the tool's pricing a one out of ten."
"FireEye Helix is a little expensive."
"I rate Trellix Helix a five out of ten for pricing."
"The price could be better. But I think it's rightly placed when we buy everything in one shot, and we get some discount for that. That's how we basically plan our deployment, and it's holistic. We pay for the license yearly."
"It could be cheaper, but that applies to every product."
