Has helped manage client domains with streamlined access control and threat visibility

I don't know what areas could be improved with Cloudflare WAF; Cloudflare is constantly improving and adding features to their feature set. They're doing a good job, and as far as DNS and support for any domains that I create or my clients create, it's mandatory for me to make sure that they have Cloudflare as their DNS provider. The Cloudflare load balancing capability hasn't really helped in enhancing my website's uptime and resiliency because we don't really get that much traffic; it's mostly remote users, and web hosting is done by a web hosting service. It doesn't pay to try to host your own website.

Data discovery has transformed compliance workflows and automation now speeds up requests and remediation

The best feature that BigID offers is data discovery and classification, which is the most powerful engine. It allows connecting to many different data sources, ranging from cloud to on-premises to structured to unstructured data. If there is no connector available, you can build your own classifiers as well. Regarding the custom classifier option, you can build custom classifiers using regular expressions, and I have done that if you know how to create regular expressions. Custom connectors are something you create to connect to a database where the connector is not available. BigID has positively impacted my organization as it's a very powerful tool, especially with the increasing regulatory compliances for different countries such as GDPR, CCPA, and India's recent DPDPA act. Having these tools in place greatly helps organizations avoid any penal charges for not being compliant with the regulatory compliances. For example, regarding compliance or reduced risks for my clients, the DSAR process I was talking about allows organizations to respond quickly to user data deletion requests under GDPR law, which traditionally has a 30-day or 60-day timeline. In larger organizations, when the number of requests is high, it becomes tedious. However, using DSAR automation with BigID, it's almost instantaneous; instead of 30 days, you can respond in just one day to what users have requested.

Email scanning and keyword monitoring improve compliance with data policies

Trend Micro DLP allows me to scan and monitor emails for specific words, ensuring compliance with data loss prevention policies. The DLP system captures keywords from email headers and subjects, and if those words are present, the DLP system operates accordingly. I also use DLP for monitoring data at rest, data in transit, and external devices.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The web application firewall brought us good security and a view of the accesses/blocks of the entire domain and subdomain that were accessed both by region (country) and IPs."

"Cloudflare is a security SaaS provider that provides security and protects us from any application layer attack."

"We're using dynamic components to build flexible pages to create and manage Git merge requests for code and reviews."

"The most valuable feature of Cloudflare is that it has a free version. They give us the free version with the anti-DDoS features and also the load balancing solution."

"Smaller businesses have seen great ROI due to the low investment and strong performance."

"Cloudflare consolidates various capabilities into one product, streamlining processes."

"From what I've seen so far, there are no negatives to report as of yet"

"DDoS attacks target unprotected machines. Cloudflare detects and stops these attacks using internal systems. It identifies incoming DDoS attacks, issuing challenges or blocking them immediately."

More Cloudflare pros

"The best feature that BigID offers is data discovery and classification, which is the most powerful engine, allowing connection to many different data sources ranging from cloud to on-premises and from structured to unstructured data, with the ability to build your own classifiers if no connector is available."

"It provides a unified view across different databases and supports a wide range of data source types, including cloud and on-premises systems."

"One of the most valuable things in a data-focused world is a tool, a technology that's data-centric, not trying to master data management or whatever else. It's a source of truth for what data an organization holds, giving it the ability to catalog, categorize, and understand its data."

"The features that I have found most valuable are the user experience, the credentialing, and that BigID is user friendly. Additionally, you can deploy to several other Microsoft platforms and you can use it for other things, like a bigger element or a report."

"I like BigID's in-depth discovery and scanning capabilities, especially for unstructured data. This feature is a standout compared to competitors. The tool's data classification capabilities are impressive. It offers custom classifiers and a blend of regular exploration and artificial intelligence, making it a next-generation solution. This enhances data security, and its security posture management is straightforward and user-friendly."

"The tool's most valuable feature is correlation. Using BigID's data classification capabilities has strengthened our data security. It lets me classify and connect data, which helps me manage data at various classification levels."

"My experience with BigID has been very positive and memorable, as BigID is simple, straightforward, and reliable when it comes to data discovery and data scanning exercises."

"BigID offers different scan types for data discovery. The most powerful one is the full scan, which scans both data and metadata. However, the metadata scan is faster in comparison."

More BigID pros

"The basic setup, like configuring servers or deploying the SaaS platform and agent implementation, is straightforward."

"The product's initial setup phase was easy."

"We find the initial setup to be very easy."

"The interface and dashboard are okay."

"There are no issues with the interface."

"Trend Micro Integrated Data Loss Prevention is a reliable product."

"We find the malware scanning and intrusion detection most valuable for our server management requirements. We can find out who is on our servers and what they have done."

"We are able to check the log and keep records."

More Trend Micro Integrated Data Loss Prevention pros

Cons

"The timing aspect can lead to it being considered overpriced. This is a particular concern we have with Cloudflare, as they may struggle with accurately detecting the client."

"We have noticed multiple instances where Cloudflare falsely indicates that our servers are down, even when there is no actual load on them. This makes it challenging for us to identify the exact issue."

"The tool needs to improve caching of servers. The product needs to include PFX certificate as well."

"If they improve on the placement of their data centers, it would be better. I'm living in a remote area. I would like to connect to them without any kind of lag."

"The solution could be more user-friendly."

"Eventually, things go sideways and require fixes when it would have been easier to prevent the issue initially."

"Cloudflare's console should be made more user-friendly."

"There should be a specific price list for enterprise-level customers."

More Cloudflare cons

"BigID's user interface was problematic as it was not very user-friendly, though I believe it improved over time."

"The challenge we encountered was with data connection across multiple databases. We struggled with configuring the data connection successfully. However, with the assistance of dynamic teams, we resolved this issue."

"There are some shortcomings when it comes to Calvirus authentication, which is not yet supported by BigID."

"The tool currently lacks security features."

"One improvement I would suggest is addressing the intermittent failures of BigID scans, as there are times when some errors occur."

"Some users find catalog navigation challenging due to the lack of a search-by-column feature, which makes it difficult to locate specific data quickly."

"I want them to focus on data mapping, assessment, automation workflow, and privacy incident management."

"BigID is expensive. I prefer McAfee."

More BigID cons

"Trend Micro could be priced better, currently, it's a bit high. And there needs to be better after the sale, technical support."

"Needs a remote login option."

"The platform's support structure for government-specific domain requirements could be improved."

"The solution could use better logging in the future."

"There is a need for more predefined templates in the DLP tool."

"Trend Micro Integrated Data Loss Prevention is buggy, which is one area for improvement. I also found Trend Micro Integrated Data Loss Prevention support horrible, so that's another area for improvement."

"The tool should improve its reporting functionality. We need a proper reporting feature in a DLP solution."

"They could improve the product's data loss policies."

More Trend Micro Integrated Data Loss Prevention cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of the solution is expensive."

"There are no additional costs beyond the standard licensing fees."

"The product's pricing is minimal compared to other products."

"So far I use free tier and happy with it. You can subscribe to business package if needed."

"The solution is expensive when compared to other products but offers unlimited bandwidth."

"The price is reasonable."

"It's a premium model. You can start at zero and work your way up to the enterprise model, which has a very high pricing level."

"In terms of licensing costs, we don't pay for licensing for Cloudflare. We only establish communication, then for peering, Cloudflare takes care of the cross-connection in different data centers."

More Cloudflare pricing and cost advice

"I think that BigID's pricing is very reasonable."

"The solution is expensive."

"The solution is not licensed per user but rather based on capacity. For instance, organizations with large amounts of data, such as 50 GB or more, are the ones that typically qualify for BigID."

"The product is expensive, but so are all competitor tools"

"The pricing depends. If you have thousands of data sources to connect and manage, and you struggled with an MDM package in the past, you'll find BigID valuable and even cheap. But if you're a small business, it's probably not the right tool for you."

"I rate the tool's pricing a three out of ten."

"The client needs to pay for the Trend Micro Integrated Data Loss Prevention license on an annual basis."

"It's relatively cheap so the pricing is okay."

"The product is worth the money you pay for it. It is not an expensive solution."

"The licensing and pricing of Trend Micro are comparatively low and competitive since they are offered in a bundle, especially compared to Symantec, which was has a relatively high price."

"The platform is expensive. We purchase its yearly license."

"Price-wise, it is a cheap solution. I rate the solution's pricing a two on a scale of one to ten, where one is low, and ten is high."

"Trend Micro Integrated Data Loss Prevention is expensive compared to other solutions."

Now more than ever, your data is on the move—whether it’s on a laptop, flash drive, or moving across physical, virtual, and cloud infrastructures. At any point along the way, your financial data, customer information, intellectual property, or trade secrets could be lost or stolen. Securing this data is further complicated by several growing risk factors:

Rapidly evolving compliance regulations and mandates, including GDPR
Continued growth of workforce mobility
Employees using their own mobile devices and consumer apps for work
Rising frequency of advanced persistent threats (APTs) and data breach incidents

To avoid the embarrassment, reputation damage, regulatory fines, and revenue loss, today’s enterprise must be able to identify, track, and secure all confidential data from multiple points within the organisation and in the cloud without impacting employee productivity and performance. In the past, many organisations tried traditional data loss prevention (DLP) solutions but found they were too intrusive, too complex to manage, and too costly to acquire, deploy, and maintain.
