Comprehensive visibility has transformed how I secure and prioritize risks across connected devices
The best features Armis offers include vulnerability management for OT and IoT devices, providing risk prioritization, and offering protection across all connected assets. Armis cyber exposure management is very good as it provides continuous visibility, risk prioritization, and protection across all connected assets. Armis has positively impacted my organization by providing asset discovery for both OT and IoT, as well as threat visibility for OT and IoT devices along with vulnerability information, including the CVE number so that I can fix the threat on OT and IoT devices. Most of the time, focus is on IT devices and attention is not paid to OT and IoT. Armis facilitates focus on OT and IoT as well, closing the gap that often exists. Armis makes life easier for customers by providing visibility of OT and IoT, as well as threat visibility. Armis has a user-friendly interface, is very useful for customers, provides quality support, and has a global presence allowing easy access for both customers and Armis representatives. The console is user-friendly. Armis handles compliance requirements in my industry very well and is useful.

Centralized threat detection has improved incident response and now reduces alert fatigue
SecureWorks Taegis VDR's best features include unified detection and response, as it pulls in alerts and logs from all my different tools such as EDR, SIEM, firewall, cloud services, and Windows machines, collecting everything into one clean dashboard where I can view all these items and eliminate the need to hunt through ten dashboards to piece a threat together. I find it very easy to navigate and customize the dashboard to fit my team's needs once everything is set up, and it is very simple to view the dashboard after setup. Cloud and hybrid support is another valuable feature of SecureWorks Taegis VDR, as it supports on-premise and cloud workloads, managing endpoints and network traffic to provide centralized visibility regardless of where my assets live, whether in the cloud or on-premise. SecureWorks Taegis VDR has positively impacted my organization because of its ease of use. The positive impacts include faster incident response, as I can detect, investigate, and contain threats much faster because it shows the full attack path in one place with deeper analysis of everything, and it reduces alert fatigue by consolidating alerts into one or two high-confidence incidents, which improves analysis efficiency and morale.
