Automated and manual threat analysis provides deep insights for potential threat remediation

The most valuable features of Bitdefender Sandbox Analyzer include manual and auto-submission. The sandbox analyzer provides a combination of technologies including machine learning-based technologies. Network analytics is performed, and the tool analyzes using threat feeds. Manual and automated submissions allow suspicious files or URLs to be analyzed thoroughly, providing deep insights for further investigation. This information is crucial for making informed decisions on remediating potential threats.

Ensuring long-term reliability while seeking internal email management enhancements

Prisma is a commercial name of the firewall now, but we don't work with the cloud product. Only our company is using it and we do not recommend it to customers. For us, it's transparent because it's a cloud product, so we don't really know the version as it's always updated. We have not had any problem, but it's difficult to report on what's going on because some days they can wash out perhaps 100 mails, and then it's difficult to say how many attacks you have reached. The right email has been washed out and then nobody has complained. We do not use the Threat Visualization feature; as we are in MX, the mail is washed out before it is in the mail inbox of the user, thus avoiding any problem requiring a reservation. In fact, there is no integration with existing security frameworks. The only problem we can have is that as we have no API interface, there is no inspection of internal mail. I rate Trellix Advanced Threat Defense a nine out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Sandbox Analyzer is easy to use. It's simple to drill down into the data. In a lot of the competing products, an extremely informed end-user can do battle with the tools provided, but in today's market, end-users have less and less time to try and keep up. The CSAW alerts come out every day, and they're huge. Adobe did a master patch last Thursday and another one a few days later."

"It is easy to use, and there is a lot of automation. So, users don't need to worry about that."

"The solution is useful in the event of a gray file or grayware, as there are certain files users may download of which we know little about."

"Bitdefender has shown fantastic stability over the past eight years with no major incidents reported."

"I like the fact that it works pretty well. It can be a little aggressive at times, but I'd rather have it be a little bit aggressive than not catch what it's supposed to catch. We've been running that platform for about five years, and we've not really had any viruses or malware get through. It's also easy to set up, and it's easy to manage."

"The most valuable features are the administration console and its detection and response module."

"The fact that in 10 years, we have had no problem is the most valuable feature for us; it's really a washing machine, but the only problem we face is that it's difficult to report on this product."

"Provides good exfiltration, and is an all-in-one product."

"Its greatest strength is the DXL client which can rapidly disseminate attack information to all clients via the McAfee Agent instead of going through the ePO server."

"It is stable and reliable."

"It is very scalable."

"It stops in excess of twenty-five malware events per month, all of which could be critical to the business."

"I recommend this solution because of its ease of use."

Cons

"It does everything we need. We haven't been able to throw anything at it that it couldn't handle."

"It would be better if there were real-time alerts. The whole suite, unlike most anti-virus consoles that just ping you when there's an infection or something, for some inexplicable reason, Bitdefender doesn't do that. The most you could do is get an hourly email, or maybe if there's an outbreak that affects 30% of our machines, it sends me an email. There's no real-time alert to say, "Hey, so-and-so literally 30 seconds ago just had this happen on their machine." Real-time reporting would be a huge improvement. All in all, it's a pretty nice product, generally speaking. They do a pretty good job. They can pretty much go toe to toe with just about anybody. But it's that kind of real-time nature. I've not had occasion to use the EDR portion to actually try and do any kind of custom scripting to drill into things that are going on at the endpoints. But my understanding from reading comments of others is that it's not particularly flexible in that regard to be able to do things like that."

"We would like to see the time it takes for the sandbox to analyze a file reduced from its ten or fifteen minute duration to five."

"It should be more secure. There should be more protection, especially for non-signature-based malware. It works fine for non-signature-based malware, but I expect it to become a bit more advanced to be able to cope with future or upcoming environments."

"We propose the on-premises solution to most of our customers, for which we must provide a license, although no such request accompanies customers who want a cloud-based solution."

"One area that needs improvement in Bitdefender Sandbox Analyzer is the addition of an asset management feature."

"There could be a tool that automatically updates all-new Microsoft IPs, which are available for free to connect to the client."

"I would like to see future versions of the solution incorporate artificial intelligence technology."

"We'd like them to be better at dealing with script threats."

"The only problem we can have is that as we have no API interface, there is no inspection of internal mail."

"Make the ATD system a part of the whole product and take the whole thing onto the cloud. While it is there already, it is not to the same level as the on-premise version."

"This solution needs to be made "cloud ready"."

"The initial setup was industry standard complex. It takes awhile and has a lot of planning involved. It could be simplified with product redesign."

"Lacks remote capabilities not dependent on the internet."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I think it's probably less expensive than something like CrowdStrike. We got a really good deal because it was literally their year-end, and they were trying to close all the sales for the week. So we bought a three-year contract from them. It roughly ended up costing me somewhere around $17 for an endpoint per year. It was really quite a nice pricing. I've talked to other folks where they got CrowdStrike, and it's like $60 for an endpoint for a year. It does, and they can be pretty aggressive if you're dealing with them directly, and I have. So no complaints there."

"You need a license to a certain extent. You need to pay for advanced features. For corporate accounts, it isn't is really a problem, but pricing is an important thing for many companies."

"The product is expensive, but it is better than the rest of them in the industry."

"Our licensing fees for this solution are approximately one million dollars per year."
