Microsoft Security Copilot vs. Arcsight by OpenText

Microsoft Security Copilot is well-suited for environments where security teams face high alert volumes and need rapid triage. It is effective during active threat response, helping us establish timelines and suggest remediation steps quickly. Copilot also excels in executive reporting, generating clear summaries for leadership without much effort. Security Copilot is less effective outside of Microsoft's ecosystem because it doesn't integrate well with other products.

In the current lot of hundreds of SIEM solutions out there in the market, ArcSight ESM is fairly less expensive with strong fundamentals in place. The log ingestion, correlation are very well performing and totally worth ROI. However, the tool has lost its way when it comes to staying abreast with current feature curve of SIEM technology and the evolution has not been done by MicroFocus. Search times are high and there is no major plug-in that has been introduced as part of the product life cycle.

• I think this product can do much better in terms of static code analysis. I don't think it has the full bit of knowledge on various languages. If the product can improve on SaaS and also help with threat modeling, that should be a great addition.

• ArcSight is a really complex tool, but it's not that easy to implement and maintain.
• Troubleshooting issues on ArcSight can be hard if you have a large environment.

It is easily accessible and provides a similar Copilot interface as other Microsoft services. The natural language processing allows users to interact with it in plain language which greatly reduces the learning curve. Theoretically, even non-technical users within a company could utilize the product to get data for reporting or analysis.

Overall, it is a good investment in order for an organization to stay compliant and stay secure from all the wild things happening. It is definitely a cost effective tool with some good features including correlation, log storage, reporting and dashboards. If a customer is looking for advanced set of features, then I would highly not recommend this.

Microsoft Security Copilot is more orientated towards the work I do and business I work for which is Security in Azure or Microsoft Products. Comparing the products has minor differences unless given explicit scenarios. In general use all of the products can fit a need but Microsoft Security Copilot suits mine in my security role the best.

We are currently using Elastic search as well for better management of our devices and to keep all the loopholes filled that have been created around the non-upgraded version of Arcsight Enterprise Manager. Elastic searches have the latest mechanism to fetch logs and correlated data, as well as process them in a more useful way.

• Helps reduce time spent creating a baseline script.
• Some errors get corrected but then get reintroduced while adding functionality.
• I noticed that when using this for PowerShell it will sometimes have you install the module in the script without verifying if it is already installed. You must read the script before executing.
