Managed threat detection efficiently with minimal resource usage
We used the solution as a Managed Detection and Response (MDR) service. It detected threats, and the team managing our services took care of it. We did not face any major challenges or attacks, and memory utilization was minimal. It functioned very well Cynet was valuable since it efficiently…
FarkhundAbbas - PeerSpot reviewer
The tool provides excellent sandboxing and email security features, but the backup and recovery features are not good
If my primary solution is down, no backup solution is available to restore it. It is one of the biggest weaknesses of the platform. If I need to update the solution, there is no option to pick the events and the logs from it and deploy it in another solution. The backup and recovery features of the product are not good. I need backup. If the tool is down for some time, I cannot get the logs at that particular time.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I like the Cynet Correlator™ feature."
"A good feature is how the solution packages varied information into a single dashboard that's readable and meets our needs."
"The initial setup is simple and user-friendly."
"A reliable security system that automatically quarantines anything suspicious."
"I like that it is possible to use the solution to check more information about the users' devices."
"The customer service and support get back to you real quick."
"This solution requires less management and is very easy to use."
"It is quite stable. I would rate the stability of the solution a nine out of ten."
"The solution is very easy to use. Its interface is very simple, and you can build IOC's indicators. You can use your rules to detect these attacks because you can leverage threat intelligence. Y"
"The product's deployment phase is easy."
"The email security feature is really good."
"Kaspersky Anti-Targeted Attack Platform is stable and runs all the time."
"I feel the anti-ransomware update is one of the tool's valuable features."
"The most valuable use is detailing metadata collection from the endpoint and network."
 

Cons

"The inability to add contact information inside the Cynet is also an issue because it makes things more complicated. I would like to have a simple feature to enter a contact name and number for the person taking care of that unit or that server."
"There is room for improvement in terms of support. The support should be faster to respond."
"I think the technical support could be better."
"Cynet fails to deploy the same technology in mobile devices."
"Automation could be improved, and orchestration could be added to the features."
"Increased application for SOAR abilities across interconnected devices would be a welcome improvement."
"The solution lacks URL filtering."
"Their deployment needs some work, especially with integration with remote monitoring management systems like Datto AutoTask or ConnectWise Automate."
"I think the tool is still not really good enough for integration compared to other products."
"In some of the places I have come across, even though they use Kaspersky, the ransomware enters their system."
"Kaspersky Anti-Targeted Attack Platform is not a good product. We had problems with endpoints and the solution did not detect it. We didn't get any alerts about the attack."
"The backup and recovery features of the product are not good."
"The solution lacks cloud integrations."
"The blind spot or gap in the platform is network analysis functionality."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It costs us 20,000 to 28,000 per year."
"Cynet is cheap."
"I don't have specific information about integration capabilities or licensing costs."

"My company's customers have to make yearly payments towards the licensing costs of the solution. Cynet is not expensive."
"We purchase the product’s yearly license."
"It costs 18,000 per year, but we have the whole package with not only Cynet but also the Perception Point for emails. There are also some small security courses for our users."
