Secures the business for customers quickly and accurately
It secures the business for the customers. For instance, if any phishing emails come into the environment and employees see it, we direct the email to Triage. The Triage system will investigate it through AI technology to see if it's a phishing email or not. If it is a phishing email, it will quarantine it and erase it from the environment.

Support and integration enhance security posture over three years
I don't know if there's something that could be improved. They surprise me. As I mentioned, I returned a month ago. I haven't fully investigated the complete system yet. I must say that we have been with them for around three years. This is amazing because throughout these three years, they have supported us every week. We meet weekly to review results and fix issues together. Apart from occasional days off, this weekly support has been consistent for three years. It's remarkable because many products are sold and then the product teams forget about you, but this isn't the case with Cymulate.

Pros

"For instance, if any phishing emails come into the environment and employees see it, we direct the email to Triage. The Triage system will investigate it through AI technology to see if it's a phishing email or not. If it is a phishing email, it will quarantine it and erase it from the environment."
"The most valuable feature for us is the zero-day."
"Cymulate is easy to set up, install, and configure."
"With Cymulate, the best features are the capacity to test the EDR or malware, anti-malware solution."
"The security validation feature helps my organization in assessing our security posture."
"The reporting capabilities are very good."
"Cymulate has positively impacted our organization by helping us to take care of the efficacy and reviewing the policies and configuration."
 

Cons

"If they continue improving and enhancing this solution, it could be even faster and more accurate."
"The cost can be quite high, and it impacts scalability as more simulations require additional expenses."
"We have had some trouble with the agents."
"I will be honest, we have it, but in the last year, I didn't maintain the system until a month ago."
"The way Cymulate works for EDR could be improved, as it drops payload and requires action from the EDR console for remediation, which can block the whole process of Cymulate execution."
"The product must provide consultancy for initial setup."
"The reporting process requires significant improvement as it often takes longer than expected and the quality is lacking."
