Experience seamless integration and effective dashboard while considering improved EDR configuration support
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. They should create some KB articles for the granular exclusion from different platforms and improve their technical assistance support.

Centralized cloud view has improved threat response and simplified compliance reporting
We are using Trend Vision One - Cloud Security for getting complete visibility of all the assets that exist within our cloud, and it helps us identify any sort of misconfigurations or fine-tuning that can be done to better our compliance. Trend Vision One - Cloud Security helps in onboarding all the cloud solutions or cloud providers that we have within our organization into a single dashboard, thereby providing greater visibility of all the assets. Earlier we used to have multiple dashboards to manage the same solution or capability, but with Trend Micro, we are able to get everything in a single pane of glass, benefiting our operations significantly. We are using the playbooks built into Trend Vision One - Cloud Security, which help us take a lot of response actions and bring automation capabilities into play. Trend Vision One - Cloud Security has positively impacted our organization by providing a single pane of glass visibility across all the cloud solutions that we have and reducing the number of threats we used to see earlier in the cloud. We are seeing that the number of cloud operations required earlier in terms of threat detection and response, and the time taken to detect a particular threat and take a response action, has considerably improved after onboarding Trend Micro.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Cymulate is easy to set up, install, and configure."
"Cymulate has positively impacted our organization by helping us to take care of the efficacy and reviewing the policies and configuration."
"The reporting capabilities are very good."
"The security validation feature helps my organization in assessing our security posture."
"With Cymulate, the best features are the capacity to test the EDR or malware, anti-malware solution."
"The most valuable feature for us is the zero-day."
"The tech support is excellent. They really know their products. They also know a lot of about the integrations between different solutions."
"The return on investment is very high because it is so flexible and you can actually cancel this service whenever you want."
"I use the tool for security solutions. It's a leader in Gartner and Forrester Wave reports. Customers rely on these reports."
"We use the solution to protect our cloud-based applications like Office 365."
"Trend Vision One goes beyond standard endpoint security by offering a dedicated IPS mechanism with a unique, separate database for servers, along with a large feature set specifically designed for server environments."
"The stability is quite good."
"If any vulnerability attack is there, it can secure that particular server in real-time."
"The most valuable part of Trend Vision One - Cloud Security is its dashboard, as it's simple. It's easy to manage, and you can better control the solution."
 

Cons

"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 cost can be quite high, and it impacts scalability as more simulations require additional expenses."
"The reporting process requires significant improvement as it often takes longer than expected and the quality is lacking."
"I will be honest, we have it, but in the last year, I didn't maintain the system until a month ago."
"The product must provide consultancy for initial setup."
"We have had some trouble with the agents."
"Trend Vision One - Cloud Security should address threats automatically without having user input."
"Trend Vision One - Cloud security aims to protect our assets, but the rapid spread of viruses and vulnerabilities through malicious emails remains a significant concern."
"Trend Vision One - Cloud Security seems to have a preference for AWS Cloud over Azure and would be improved by focusing equally on both."
"Currently, we must procure and configure the server hardware independently, as we obtain the software separately from Trend Micro."
"Securing S3 using Trend Vision One - Cloud Security can cost too much. Trend Vision One - Cloud Security has a tool that requires lots of privileges. From my understanding, it's only for static application testing, so they need to add dynamic application testing, and there should be more collaboration with the application testing tools on the market. We have not used this product, and I don't know if they plan to decommission it or something. They should focus on application security because this tool's unique feature is multi-cloud support. However, they should improve integration with tools for these kinds of use cases, especially application security and dynamic scanning. For example, I would like it to support Dell SecureOps. I'd also like to see some enhancements to API gateway security."
"There are also some loopholes because it's a new product that they have recently migrated to the cloud. We do see some issues with the policies we have assigned when it comes to a particular account. There are some issues with system support, such as a particular server kernel version that is not supported."
"The licensing could be made easier to understand."
"Trend Vision One - Cloud Security could improve connections with different types of authentication and user groups concerning cloud services."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product is affordable."
"Cymulate's services are expensive."
"While Trend Vision One - Cloud Security was a cost-effective solution for us in 2021, we've noticed a recent price increase that makes it less affordable."
"The price could be lower. That is a bit of a consideration."
"Two years ago, it cost $200 for 20 credits, which was a high cost."
"Pricing for Trend Micro Cloud One Container Security in the corporate market is okay."
"The pricing for Cloud One is reasonable because my costs scale up and down based on my infrastructure usage."
"The is price is 25% cheaper than it was a couple of years ago, which is good."
"It's a slightly expensive product."
"I rate the solution's pricing a six out of ten."
