Symantec Advanced Threat Protection Reviews

Our primary use case for the product is to provide advanced threat protection to our clients, primarily in the banking and financial sectors.

Symantec ATP has been beneficial in ensuring robust security for our clients. Its effectiveness in detecting and mitigating threats has improved customer satisfaction, evidenced by clients opting for renewals instead of switching to new products.

We use the product to protect the environment with the help of antivirus and firewall features.

Symantec Endpoint Protection provides end-to-end protection. Along with antivirus protection, it has a lot of key areas, including intrusive prevention, firewall features, and application and device control. It can integrate with other Broadcom solutions, such as Symantec Messaging Gateway and Symantec DLP. If you want to send an email, it gets scanned through endpoint protection and DLP. We get all Symantec functionality in a single pane.

We primarily use the product to protect against malware, spyware, and hardware issues.

The platform is easy to use, which saves us a lot of time and effort. Monitoring is straightforward and efficient.

We use it for antivirus, as well as network threat protection. 

The most valuable feature is NetFlow threat protection.

We use it for advanced antivirus protection. It is primarily used for protecting the workstations and servers from Zero-Day and other emerging threats. 

I am using its latest cloud-enabled version. Its deployment model varies. We recommend the full cloud version, so we try to get everybody moved over to the cloud. Most of the time, it is a hybrid for a while, until you get moved fully into the cloud.

You don't have to buy a separate email security platform. You can enable that using their endpoint, and I like that. You don't have to have two agents running on the same box. 

They have advanced their product line with other detection capabilities outside the traditional hashes. They have added Zero-Day in the emerging Advanced Threat Protection series. So, it gives the customers a better feel that they're protected. It is not just traditional AV-only protection. It also protects against new and emerging threats.

Its agent is also pretty solid. It is a good product.

 We use the solution for our service's inter-coolant rotations.

The Application Control code and the easy integration are valuable features. 

We have two departments, two clients on Advanced Threat Protection.

Advanced Threat Protection usually helps in identifying and protecting against non-signature virus attacks. With this product, you can protect yourself from attacks.

The solution has proven so far to be quite stable.

It's mostly an effective product and it's good to have on the side.

We have found the initial setup to be simple. The deployment is also very fast.

Technical support has been helpful and responsive.

We primarily use the solution for its integration capabilities.

Their integrations are pretty good as are their Sandbox solutions, their proxies, and their LTAs with API or ICAP protocols.

Symantec has good experience in the field. They're good at picking up on trends.

They have one of the biggest background cloud networking internet solutions due to the fact that they have a lot of customers everywhere in the world and they have a lot of data.

The incident management on the solution is very good. You get a lot of detailed information about an incident. You also get a lot of documentation in connection with the CVI or integration.

If you have to integrate it with CM solutions, you can correlate data more with other solutions, for example, with firewalls. The result of this integration is that it gives you much more information. 

There are customers where the engineers have enough time to investigate all of the incidents. However, you can also collect this data in a CM and then in an incident and response management solution. It ends up saving a lot of time
