Marko Pirc - PeerSpot reviewer
Key features are roaming, application control and the firewall
We are partners of Aruba as well as sellers and customers. My job in the company is IP network engineer.  The roaming is a feature that works very well. In addition, the application control and firewall features are very good. These are all important features and make the product a valuable one.…
Roshan Jadhav - PeerSpot reviewer
Has improved threat detection and streamlined incident analysis through centralized control and AI-driven insights
People are looking for Cynet because it has next-generation threat protection that detects zero-day threats. It has UEBA (user entity behavior analysis), threat hunting features, and storage device control where we can create profiles and block unauthorized USB storage devices. We can also create threat protection policies to detect malware, ransomware, and many other threats. The most valuable feature is the UBA (User behavior analysis). It has integration with SIEM solutions, allowing us to share our logs to third-party SIEM servers. Cynet has AI integration which showcases complete forensic data about threats, making it very easy to understand what happened with the system and what type of incident was detected. Autonomous breach protection is a feature of Cynet which can detect and mitigate known and unknown threats based on signatures. If there are any signature-less files, malware, or ransomware, it will detect them based on autonomous breach protection capabilities. The centralized management console provides a dashboard where we can see four types of attack vectors and incident counts in real-time. It continuously scans the radar and shows open alerts related to files, hosts, users, or networks. We can easily export these alerts and send reports via email.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Roaming feature, application control and firewall features."
"The most valuable feature is the end-user monitoring. If there is any abnormal behavior on the machine, the administrator will be alerted."
"I haven't heard of any issues with stability."
"Cynet has AI integration which showcases complete forensic data about threats, making it very easy to understand what happened with the system and what type of incident was detected."
"It can be deployed in autonomous mode, and then it automatically blocks malware threats."
"I like that it is possible to use the solution to check more information about the users' devices."
"The valuable aspects of Cynet are its EDR and XDR components, which are available at a reasonable price point."
"Cynet's most valuable features are laptop and server performance, internal network monitoring, and external firewall lock management."
"The dashboard is beautiful, overall easy of use, and the UBA and NBA features are valued."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the network part of it because most of the endpoint products in XDS products we find Cynet has networking user behavior analysis and network analysis, for the whole team."
"The EDR, as well as the XDR features, are very valuable."
 

Cons

"Technical support is a little slow."
"I would like to see improvements made to the dashboard, where you can get the information with a simple click."
"The packet analyzer needs improvement."
"I suppose everybody's working on AI these days. So, I would like to see more about AI-based threats."
"I'd like to see more data loss prevention within the product."
"The reporting is a little weak and could be improved. The other downside is that Cynet does not use the local time zone. It's based off of Greenwich Mean Time."
"In future releases, I would like to see cloud security aspects included."
"There is room for improvement in terms of support. The support should be faster to respond."
"Cynet fails to deploy the same technology in mobile devices."
"Most of their times are in Greenwich Mean Time. I would like to see more local time zones."
"We'd like something that makes it easier to manage specific points."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The license is based on the number of users. The evaluation license is free, you can download it from the website and try it out first."
"Everything is included in this one solution and the pricing is pretty competitive."
"Cynet is cheaper than other solutions in the market."
"Pricing wise, Cynet seems to be very competitive. The cost is probably lower than that offered by many of its competitors for all the functions and features it offers."
"It is extremely affordable. I'll give it a five out of five in terms of price. It was half the cost of the next closest competitor, and the competitor didn't provide SOC services."
"Cynet is cheap."
"Our billing is on a quarterly basis, but they have monthly or annual billing availability."
"The price should not be less than $100 which is quite reasonable for this solution because you are getting multiple components."
"it's not cheap, but I would rate it a three out of ten. If one is cheap and ten is expensive."
