Useful to monitor and track any suspicious activities
I rate the tool's deployment ease as five out of ten. In our situation, our team doesn't understand what it means to configure your solution properly. Because in the end, if any security solution isn't configured correctly, it won't provide optimal protection. So, it's very clear that we need to balance the gaps in our team's skills and what the vendors can do to cover those gaps for us. The tool's agents are deployed on-premises and connect to a very secure API to a cloud console. From the cloud console, you start managing and controlling the workstation configurations. Deployment took a few days because it included extensive orientation for our team members.

Has a user-friendly setup process, but its query language needs improvement
The product has valuable features for the EDR section. We can easily isolate affected machines in the network. It helps us prevent the spreading of malware or ransomware further Secureworks Taegis ManagedXDR's query language and stability need improvement. Additionally, its price could be better…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The product is fairly new compared to others like Trend Micro or Symantec. However, it offers sophisticated features, especially in scanning and analyzing activities on workstations or servers. It can prevent malicious operations from spreading to other applications or the network. This feature is particularly effective because it operates at the IO level, unlike behavior or signature analysis used by other products. It contains threats and alerts administrators about whether they are false positives or real threats that need immediate action or support recommendations."
"One of the most valuable features is its around-the-clock, 365-day-a-year online technical support."
"It provides more visibility and more control over endpoints. It reduces the noise. It clears things and only shows things that are really important. It only shows those things that need to be looked at or need to be investigated further. Other similar solutions give you a lot of alerts and other things, but Secureworks gives you a defined or less noisy view so that you can work or focus on things that are important in terms of investigation, response, and remediation."
"We can easily isolate affected machines in the network."
"Secureworks Taegis Managed XDR MDR is a great product that has not posed any challenges from my perspective."
"The most valuable feature is the fast alerting and response time."
"The initial setup was very straight forward."
"The most valuable features are IDS and IPS."
"There are some patent pending detectors within the platform that provides a lot of value."
"Securworks' threat intel seems pretty decent, and they integrate with several solutions we have, such as Azure AD, so all our Microsoft 365 stuff is covered."
 

Cons

"I think having a higher level of MDR would be beneficial, although it's quite expensive. This would involve not just monitoring the network but also taking actions to stop and detect threats. We haven't implemented this yet, but we're considering it for our organization's plans."
"They should consider adopting the desktop version as a solution."
"The deployment could definitely be improved."
"The integration with the Carbon Black sensor could be better. ManagedXDR doesn't seem to know how to extract the forensic data from an endpoint that was quarantined by Carbon Black."
"In the next release of this solution, I would like to see file integrity monitoring."
"Tamper-proofing or tamper protection is still pending in Secureworks. Tamper protection will make it more secure. If I'm an admin of a device, I can uninstall an agent without the knowledge of the security or Secureworks admin. If someone gets hold of one endpoint with admin credentials, he can remove anything, and an organization will lose visibility. They need to work on providing more visibility across endpoints. A couple of times it has happened that the cloak agent is there, but it did not get activated, or there were some issues. The machine was restarted, but the cloak agent didn't run. In such cases, you have to troubleshoot. It is a big issue if a cyber attack is happening, and your machine is rebooted, but the events are not captured."
"In terms of ROI, I'd be surprised if there is any investment return on the SIM."
"It would be nice if the solution were a little more affordable."
"Dell Secureworks is for higher-end customers and it's not quite as straightforward to implement or to get up and running as some of the other solutions."
"Secureworks Taegis ManagedXDR's query language and stability need improvement."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing falls within the moderate range."
"The tool's pricing is high compared to other products. If you want to target a certain quantity, it should provide discounts to enterprises."
"It is expensive but there is no better product than this."
"Initially, the cost was going to be something around $160 or $170. And eventually, I think they brought it down to $110 and they also threw in some endpoint protection platforms."
"The pricing for this solution is reasonable. One agent costs approximately 270 dirhams/70 USD for one year. There is a reduction in cost per licence as the number of licences used increases."
"The Red Cloak agent is free."
"The price is kind of on par. The licensing was comparable to other solutions. It's not particularly high or low."
"The pricing of Dell Secureworks is very reasonable."
"Secureworks Taegis ManagedXDR is very expensive and could be more cost-effective."
