I have seen a return on investment with Trellix Collaboration Security; specifically, money was saved and fewer employees were needed because I do not need employees on different sites.

I observe that the return on investment is hindered by the lack of adequate training opportunities, with Trellix's own training being quite costly, ranging from 2,000 to 4,000 dollars, which many small or medium-sized businesses cannot afford.

Provides strong email protection and accurate threat detection with effective multi-layer defense mechanisms

They run us through about seven layers of protection, and the reporting is excellent. I found it to be very effective. It has a very high level of protection with Perception Point Advanced Email Security. They continually modernize their surveillance. They use a lot of AI. They run it through several layers of detection, deep packet inspection, which takes a lot of horsepower. I just think it is a good system. Perception Point Advanced Email Security has helped address specific email threats within my organization. I get weekly reporting, and by doing that, I can go and talk to these people directly and make them aware of how many attacks they had and where the attacks are coming from and not only the source of the email, but what category of emails that they are receiving. With the combination of KnowBe4 PhishER, I think it is a good security process that we have in place.

Real-time threat response has boosted detection accuracy and reduces manual investigation work

Cybersecurity Engineer Lead at Johnson & Johnson

I have had challenges in the past with Trellix Collaboration Security for implementation because of issues related to compatibility. Since we worked in a global company with different operating systems, it was necessary to create different plans and different actions to implement the product.One thing I really do not prefer in Trellix Collaboration Security is not related to the console. I am a McAfee fan since the McAfee tool, and I find the console of Trellix Collaboration Security to be very user-friendly and easy to use. However, I do not know if it is related to the architecture of the product. Of course, we have modern threats based on behaviors and zero days. We have today CrowdStrike and SentinelOne, where we have better results based on threats and behavior, where it is possible to create a simulation environment based on the file detected and based on it, confirm if it really is malicious or not. In general, I believe Trellix Collaboration Security improved the console based on the last console of McAfee, but I think it is possible to improve more. It really is a good product, but in my view, it needs to improve detection based on behaviors. Regarding automations, I have implemented Trellix Collaboration Security here at Johnson & Johnson, and I implemented it in the same situation at Santander Bank and BNP Paribas Bank, where I created automations to export data for different metrics, including malicious detections, compliance, baselines, scans, last scans based on the seven days, and checking of patterns. I export everything to CSV files. Based on that, I create Power BI dashboards, and in these Power BI dashboards, I have a more executive view for different metrics to provide to myself, my manager, or director to create an executive view based on it. Another important point we use here at Johnson & Johnson and other companies is a data hub or a SIEM solution, such as Elastic or ArcSight, where we select some logs to be sent and use it to build reports and metrics.

Trellix Collaboration Security is a comprehensive solution designed to protect sensitive data and ensure secure collaboration within organizations. With the increasing reliance on digital platforms for communication and collaboration, it is crucial to have robust security measures in place. Trellix Collaboration Security offers a range of features to safeguard data and prevent unauthorized access.

One of the key features of Trellix Collaboration Security is its advanced encryption capabilities. All data transmitted and stored within the platform is encrypted using industry-standard encryption algorithms, ensuring that it remains secure and protected from potential threats. This encryption extends to all communication channels, including emails, file transfers, and instant messaging, providing end-to-end security.

To further enhance security, Trellix Collaboration Security incorporates multi-factor authentication. This means that users are required to provide multiple forms of identification, such as passwords, biometrics, or security tokens, to access the platform. This significantly reduces the risk of unauthorized access, as even if one factor is compromised, the others provide an additional layer of protection.

In addition to encryption and multi-factor authentication, Trellix Collaboration Security offers robust access controls. Administrators can define and enforce granular access permissions, ensuring that only authorized individuals can view, edit, or share specific documents or folders. This helps prevent data leakage and ensures that sensitive information is only accessible to those who need it.

Trellix Collaboration Security also includes comprehensive auditing and monitoring capabilities. Administrators can track user activities, monitor file transfers, and generate detailed reports to identify any suspicious or unauthorized behavior. This proactive approach allows organizations to quickly detect and respond to potential security breaches, minimizing the impact on data integrity and confidentiality.
