Cloud security has improved remote access and has reduced costs for smaller client sites
I have used Cloudflare One's Identity-Aware Proxy, and it is quite straightforward from what I have seen so far. The app registration on the Azure side integrates fully into Cloudflare, and I am very satisfied with that part because it is easy to set up. The integration of Cloudflare One's Secure Web Gateway and Zero Trust Network Access works without any issues. That part is pretty automatic, and if you complete the rest of the setup, it comes together by itself with no issues from my side. What makes it nice is that we can actually start replacing on-site firewalls at this stage for the smaller clients because it does not matter if they go to a coffee shop or work from home; they are still secured by the same connection. The hops get shorter and you get better latency. We have done testing to see if it is better. One thing that we did notice with our proof of concept with our current client is that they have people connecting from the UK. When they used their previous VPN solution, uploading CAD drawings and other files to the server took a long time. They mentioned that it is much quicker on Cloudflare One's solution. I definitely believe that is part of the improved performance, and I am satisfied with that as well. What is nice about Cloudflare One is that it makes the setup easier and also easier to train technicians to maintain it. Compared to legacy systems, we do not need to get fancy firewalls in place that are costly. That is definitely also a cost-saver with Cloudflare One.

Advanced email filtering has reduced phishing incidents and protects users across our organization
Check Point Anti-Spam and Email Security Software Blade works very well overall, but there are a few areas where it could be improved. One is the reporting interface; it is useful but could be more intuitive and provide clearer insights without needing to go through multiple menus. I would also like to see faster or more seamless updates to threat intelligence so the system reacts even more quickly to new phishing techniques. Regarding the reporting feature of Check Point Anti-Spam and Email Security Software Blade, I think the reporting and analytics could be more modern and integrated. The data is there, but a more customizable dashboard or clearer summaries would make it easier to present threats or justify decisions to management. Better visualization would really help. Another improvement I would like to see is deeper integration with the platforms we use, such as more seamless connections with our ticketing system or user directory. Everything works, but a deeper level of automation would be beneficial.

Real-time threat response has boosted detection accuracy and reduces manual investigation work
I have had challenges in the past with Trellix Collaboration Security for implementation because of issues related to compatibility. Since we worked in a global company with different operating systems, it was necessary to create different plans and different actions to implement the product.One thing I really do not prefer in Trellix Collaboration Security is not related to the console. I am a McAfee fan since the McAfee tool, and I find the console of Trellix Collaboration Security to be very user-friendly and easy to use. However, I do not know if it is related to the architecture of the product. Of course, we have modern threats based on behaviors and zero days. We have today CrowdStrike and SentinelOne, where we have better results based on threats and behavior, where it is possible to create a simulation environment based on the file detected and based on it, confirm if it really is malicious or not. In general, I believe Trellix Collaboration Security improved the console based on the last console of McAfee, but I think it is possible to improve more. It really is a good product, but in my view, it needs to improve detection based on behaviors. Regarding automations, I have implemented Trellix Collaboration Security here at Johnson & Johnson, and I implemented it in the same situation at Santander Bank and BNP Paribas Bank, where I created automations to export data for different metrics, including malicious detections, compliance, baselines, scans, last scans based on the seven days, and checking of patterns. I export everything to CSV files. Based on that, I create Power BI dashboards, and in these Power BI dashboards, I have a more executive view for different metrics to provide to myself, my manager, or director to create an executive view based on it. Another important point we use here at Johnson & Johnson and other companies is a data hub or a SIEM solution, such as Elastic or ArcSight, where we select some logs to be sent and use it to build reports and metrics.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I'm very satisfied with the environment and the dashboard."
"The tool also offers good scalability, and the dashboard, along with real-time analytics, is very good."
"The blocking feature is very good."
"Cloudflare One has assisted in securing my remote workforce through a SASE solution with Cloudflare One and the Workers part, although I am not currently using the Workers component."
"The capabilities of the software are strong enough for me to do what it's supposed to do. For me, we don't need to do a lot of configuration on our site. We just enable it and monitor it."
"Cloudflare DDoS mitigates DDoS attacks."
"Using Cloudflare One makes my work quite easy because for DDoS protection, all I need to do is understand the OSI model and click; it makes it easier than trying to write a command line or use a Linux command."
"Cloudflare is by far the most effective solution that I have come across."
"Check Point Anti-Spam and Email Security Software Blade is quite reliable...It is a very stable solution."
"The best features of Check Point Anti-Spam and Email Security Software Blade are its security features, which help the team perform their daily tasks without having to concern for potential security breaches."
"Check Point Anti-Spam and Email Security Software Blade helps us to gain great email security and is one of the most secure and affordable solutions for mail server security systems, helping with compliance and security management to ensure no data loss or data theft from the email server under any circumstance."
"We now have better security and fewer false positives."
"Check Point Anti-Spam and Email Security Software Blade is undoubtedly one of the highly stable and scalable platforms for email management - at a minimal cost."
"What I appreciate most about Check Point Anti-Spam and Email Security Software Blade is that it can effectively detect and block malicious emails that could harm user PCs."
"Using Check Point has helped us to safeguard our environment and help to protect against spam, as well as other types of attacks against our network."
"Check Point offers us flexibility when it comes to customizing the configurations that we want to manage, thus allowing us to meet the specific needs of our company."
"We can control this solution from the cloud and are able to access it from wherever we are."
"The initial setup is simple."
"FireEye Email Security helps us prevent spam and phishing emails and all other business-compromised email attacks."
"Trellix Collaboration Security is valued for being a stable and comprehensive solution that fulfills customer needs."
"One of the valuable features of the product stems from the fact that it is easy to implement the tool in our environment."
"It is one of the greatest solutions to have or to complement any other security solution such as Proofpoint or IronPort."
"We have had very good results from the use of FireEye Email Security. We are very comfortable with this technology, but I don't know if it's necessary to move into the cloud, we will check other technologies and study them. Additionally, the solution has good integration."
"Trellix Collaboration Security has positively impacted our organization by making our collaboration environment very safe, allowing our team to share files and links without worrying about threats."
 

Cons

"Operating and tuning the product is difficult."
"They don't have a person to provide support for customers using the solution under their free plan."
"The tool should provide on-premise versions. Currently, all versions are cloud-based."
"Our customers no longer use Cloudflare because its service is subpar."
"The free plan has limitations. For example, I can only set up three rules, and the application firewall is unavailable."
"Feedback could be enhanced. While I work efficiently with Clover as a partner in Mexico City, sometimes the information and requests are easier to manage with more concrete solutions."
"There are premium tier live service and lower tier live service, so we opted for the lower tier. But there is no medium tier where we pay a little extra and get a bit more service. So if that can be improved."
"Our subscription plan for the solution has a limitation of bot signatures."
"There's definitely room for improvement when it comes to adapting to different languages in one environment."
"I had the need for specialized support in Spanish. However, there are only specialists in the English-speaking language, and that has, in some cases, limited support."
"The manageability using this console is complex and it should be a little more user-friendly."
"One area where Check Point Anti-Spam and Email Security Software Blade can be improved is the knowledge base configuration."
"There could be an extension of the trial period to 60 days."
"Check Point Anti-Spam and Email Security Software Blade could improve by focusing more on promoting and marketing its products. Despite having a great solution, it hasn't captured a larger market share, possibly due to insufficient promotion. It should also incorporate a module to monitor client identities, similar to CrowdStrike. It could also improve by systemizing and simplifying their documentation to make it easier to find needed information."
"The technical team could improve services by ensuring when there are changes they inform enterprise users of effective upgrades."
"The high-end protection of email servers from any advanced foreign agents and malware is not 100% there currently."
"The solution is not easy to set up. However, we have employees that have the knowledge that can do the difficult implementation. It would be better if the process was easier."
"The reporting aspect of the solution needs improvement."
"The cloud product is not open to the customers. If the system itself could be more open to the customer, I'd be able to configure it more specifically."
"The solution must provide features to scan QR codes for threats."
"The solution needs better support."
"If they want to be the primary or best solution, they need to have better email management features."
"FireEye needs single sign-on. They say it's on their roadmap. They should also implement support for Microsoft Authenticator app for 2FA."
"In general, our company should make the tool more robust to protect our systems."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Cloudflare Zero Trust Platform's pricing is good."

"The pricing of the solution is cheap. The licensing cost is also very low. I rate the cost and pricing a three out of ten."

"The prices are slightly expensive."

"For licensing, my company makes yearly payments, which is expensive."
