It provides us with more in-depth visibility into ongoing attacks.
I rate Contrast Security Protect eight out of 10. Overall, it's a solid product, but I deduct a couple of points because of the interface and some shortcomings in the reporting. If you have a large enterprise where you're dealing with a lot of servers, then it makes sense not to use the internal MySQL database. You should use something like Oracle or Microsoft SQL, but if you don't have many transactions, the embedded MySQL database works great.

Long-term endpoint security has protected our organization from ransomware and data loss
Trellix IVX for Enterprise Applications Collaboration is not something we are currently using. We are not using FireEye Email Security right now. We are not using the cloud version of this product. It is not difficult to manage because our team is very well trained and aware of Trellix IVX for Enterprise Applications endpoint security because we have been using it for more than 20 years. Our team is very well trained on the endpoint security. However, because we have a very distributed architecture of our organization, it is very difficult to change or replace on laptop or desktop computers. At most, only two or three engineers are involved. Trellix IVX for Enterprise Applications is very robust and easy to handle data loss protection, which are very good features. We are also using Fortinet products. The vendor team is also monitoring and does proactive measures to protect from ransomware and other security threats. We have a service level agreement with the local vendor to maintain the solution and solve other issues. The overall review rating for this product is 8 out of 10.
