Overview
NetWitness Platform delivers uncompromised threat detection, investigation, and response, across network, logs, and endpoint, whether deployed on-premises, in the cloud, or hybrid.
The NetWitness Platform allows security analysts to prioritize, respond, reconstruct, survey, investigate and confirm information about threats in their environment and take the appropriate response, optimizing their security posture and protecting against the impacts of attacks.
Core platform modules include network detection and response (NDR), security information and event management (SIEM) and endpoint detection and response (EDR). Additional modules are available for UEBA, SOAR, and asset analytics to reduce the attack surface. NetWitness features market-leading SASE integrations (both packets and logs), and over 400 integrations with general-purpose and industry-specific security tools, with the ability to instantly parse new sources. NetWitness Platform is utilized continuously in the field by NetWitness Incident Response/Cyber Defense Services, where new detections and methods cycle back into product development.

Threat hunting playform
Helps to deal with potential attacks and is available at a reasonable price
What is our primary use case?
I use the solution in my company for packets mainly and log analytics.
What is most valuable?
I don't really see any valuable features in the product. I feel that it is time to move away from NetWitness Platform. All SIEM tools have to deal with advanced use cases, and many of them are getting upgrades, but this is not the case with NetWitness Platform. NetWitness Platform has remained the same for almost four to five years. The support and RMAs offered by the product in our region have also become very bad.
What needs improvement?
From an improvement perspective, the NetWitness Platform needs to release new features and improve in areas like log correlation. The tool needs to have easier integrations with the cloud. Building a parser should be made easier in the tool.
The tool needs to have easier integrations. The tool needs to have the extra log-related suggestions. The platform and UI should be easier to use.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using NetWitness Platform for eight years. My company is a customer of the tool.
How are customer service and support?
I rate the technical support a six out of ten.
How was the initial setup?
The product's initial setup phase was not at all difficult. The tool's upgrades and moving from old hardware to new hardware are difficult and time-consuming. If you have any hardware failures, as per the RMA offered by the tool, it takes a very long time to get some after-service. The product has not been working well in my region recently.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
The product price was reasonable for my region and the market.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
My company has a hybrid environment. I have looked at other products like Splunk and Sentinel. I am still looking around for other solutions in the market. In my company, we are having discussions to move to some other solution.
What other advice do I have?
My company has had many benefits from the use of the product in the last eight years.
The tool has streamlined our company's incident response process since it serves as a log repository, which allows us to correlate events and access different technology stacks. In our company, we were able to actually find some potential attacks, so it has been very helpful.
The tool's integration capability isn't so great. In my company, we managed to integrate it with our Microsoft Azure Subscription, after which we managed to integrate it with other tools. You will face a lot of difficulties if you want to integrate it with your database monitoring tool, PAM solutions, or IAM products.
The product has done well overall for my company's teams to deal with their workflow efficiency.
I would not recommend the product to others.
I rate the tool a seven out of ten.
