Great for PCI compliance but issues with stability and large amounts of data
I mainly use this solution to meet PCI compliance The automation of compliance reports and the correlation of the log have been major improvements.  The most valuable feature is the predefined reports for PCI compliance. The correlation suite needs to be improved. I also think they need to…
MD
Senior Vice President IT at AS IT Consulting Pvt. Ltd.
Offers comprehensive report generation while maintaining ease of integration
We need to improve Trellix ESM by making sure that most of the logging devices available in the global market should be covered, and if there is any device which is not covered, there should not be any additional charges for writing the custom parsers on that. We can add some new features regarding AI in the future for Trellix ESM, but the maturity will take a longer time. There are many false positives that happen in an environment during the first couple of months, or around six months, so the system analyst is not able to identify whether the event which has occurred is a true positive or a false positive.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Customer Service: The service we've seen from NNT to date has been extraordinarily good."
"This is a very easy-to-use interface with a quick ramp-up time."
"File integrity monitoring is a very important function."
"The FIM features in the Change Tracker and the Log Tracker are the most valuable."
"The most valuable feature is the predefined reports for PCI compliance."
"You will definitely get a return on your investment if you develop the correct security management metrics and have decent operational procedures in place to take action on events in ESM."
"Doing Incident analysis in my opinion with ESM is easier than other solutions."
"It enables us to detect malicious threats, issues, or vulnerabilities in our network."
"The ease of use is the most valuable feature. Over the years I have always been using this solution and have become comfortable with it."
"It is easy to use."
"The tool's effectiveness depends on how you define your log sources. To build visibility of incoming and outgoing traffic, you need logs from perimeter defense, firewalls, web application firewalls, and endpoint protection. With good traffic visibility, incident response time is really quick."
"It has performed well and delivered the results that I have been looking for."
"The most valuable feature of Trellix ESM, for detecting, is that it detects malware and viruses, such as a particular virus that was critical in Kenya; we used ESM to detect and block that particular virus completely."
 

Cons

"Only one minor deployment issue came up and it was resolved quickly. No other areas of improvement come to mind yet."
"The correlation suite needs to be improved."
"I would like to see the integration of AI technology, so rather than manually monitoring the logs, the tool will understand it and take care of it."
"It is able to identify the vulnerability, however, they need an option to auto-mitigate."
"Product-wise, adding accounts on a single data source by batch would be a really great help."
"Update to user interface from version 9 is cosmetic in some aspects, and after a few clicks you are back on the old interface."
"Tech support is required each time there is a system update of the solution."
"I would like to see fingerprint recognition included in the next release of this solution."
"The disk space needed for events is not clear."
"There are some banking and transactional cases that are local, South America transactions. I would like to see them add features that can be used locally, to make those transactions more reliable."
"I have to purchase a new box now. Its existing box is not scalable and I can't use it anymore."
"The disk space needed for events is not clear. In all clients, we had at least more than 100GB free that we could not use."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Consider both their on-premises solution and their hosted solution. Both are reasonably priced."
"We have selected a perpetual license along with support."
"NNT's pricing is moderate - I would rate their pricing two-and-a-half out of ten."
"The pricing is good, and they are competitive compared to providers such as RSA and IBM QRadar."
"The cost is all included. The finance department handles the financial part, and we mostly don't get involved in it."
"You should buy the distributed option instead of the all-in-one for environments with more than 1000 end points."
"The price is good. It's moderate. We follow a pay-as-you-go model. There are different models available, and they can also be monthly. You can choose monthly or yearly. It's very flexible. If our existing customers exceed the current plan, you can just call McAfee and get it extended."
"The licensing cost is based on EPS."
"The product is slightly expensive."
"The price of McAfee ESM is higher than some of the other solutions. There are additional features that can be added at an additional fee."
"When compared to IBM Security QRadar and other similar platforms, the pricing of McAfee ESM is reasonable and comparatively less expensive."
