VMware Carbon Black Cloud Valuable Features

GS
Information Technology System Administrator at General Assembly

The best feature is that it collects so much information. Its search functionality on the console works well as far as being able to drill down and find compliance issues. Also, something was executed on a machine or across a bunch of machines and how it relates to those bits of data. In that case, you can look at the whole picture in your environment.

The solution is very inexpensive but still provides good process-level management. 

The solution does very well as a baseline EDR, especially between the endpoint and launching scripts or pulling data back. 

There is a back-end Python library for reporting.

Cyber Security Manager at a insurance company with 51-200 employees

The ability to quickly isolate a system from the network, while still being able to perform some forensics and mitigation work remotely, was of great value to us since we had many mobile and distributed systems.

We also took full advantage of its incident response reporting capabilities to act as a “black box” for our infrastructure around strings of suspicious activity. The reporting and incident response capabilities were incredibly helpful during active security concerns.

What we mainly find valuable in the product is exactly what our use case is. We use Carbon Black for the intrusion alerts and quarantine. Those would be our favorite features.

Carbon Black Cb Response excels at providing context to indicators when responding to incidents. It allows responders to understand the entire scope of an incident and quickly contain it to minimize impact and disruption. In incident response speed is of the utmost importance, as many incidents can quickly spread through the entire organization if not immediately contained.

Probably the most valuable feature of CB Response is its ability to isolate a host and take it off the network, so it's not spreading anything. We have two security operations centers around the globe. When an SOC analyst sees something on an endpoint, they can use Carbon Black Response to isolate that host from the customer's environment and prevent any kind of lateral spread.

Integration and scalability are the most valuable. For example, if you chose a cloud solution, it's not very scalable, because it doesn't support any integration. But on the client side, you can combine materials, you can combine everything. You can add anything.

The ability to isolate an endpoint with only the host name and a click of a button is a major time saver. No need to go hunting for an IP or typing in terminal.
