We performed a comparison between Cynet and Secureworks Red Cloak Threat Detection and Response [EOL] based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about SentinelOne, CrowdStrike, Palo Alto Networks and others in Extended Detection and Response (XDR)."A crucial aspect for our team is the inclusion of identity and access management tools from the vendor."
"The most valuable feature of the solution stems from the fact that Microsoft Defender XDR is easy to integrate with other Microsoft platforms or products."
"My clients like Defender's file integrity monitoring. They're monitoring Windows and Linux system files."
"Microsoft XDR's system of analysis and investigation is super convenient for our customers. It integrates with other Microsoft solutions like Defender for 365 to protect email traffic from malicious external web links and phishing."
"The best feature is threat hunting. There are a lot of other features I like, such as the alert mechanism. The chain alert mechanism has a huge impact. It combines all the alerts into one incident and automatically correlates them with AI."
"It provides a single pane of glass within the 365 admin interface, streamlining our experience by consolidating information in one place and eliminating the need to navigate through multiple interfaces."
"From the perspective of Microsoft 365 XDR, the main benefit is a single, centralized dashboard offering the holistic visibility organizations crave."
"It gives a lot of flexibility in terms of configuration and customization as per the business requirements."
"We are very satisfied with the level of performance we get."
"The initial setup is very fast and very easy."
"We are using almost all of the features and we find it quite good overall."
"In terms of incident response, Cynet can contain attacks, offer a trial period to customers, and uninstall if not continued. The most valuable aspect is its integration capabilities, covering endpoints and network data for a comprehensive view of threats."
"Its ability to revert back from a previous state is quite notable. This feature is particularly valuable because, for maintaining integrity, it can inspect the socket for any firewall modifications. In practice, it allows us to return to a previous configuration when everything was functioning correctly."
"It can be deployed in autonomous mode, and then it automatically blocks malware threats."
"If some unusual activity happens on the network, such as I open administrator sessions in a short duration of an hour on many computers in the lab, it sends me an alert about my network saying that one user opened three, four, or five sessions in one hour. Similarly, if I try to play with the disk size on a computer, it will send me an alert, and it will also stop the operation."
"This solution requires less management and is very easy to use."
"The features that I have found most valuable are that the search capabilities are easy to use. The dashboards are good. The reports are good. It is just simple from a deployment standpoint - that was easy."

"The user interface of Microsoft 365 Defender could improve. They could make it simpler."
"Correctly updated records are the most significant area for improvement. There have been times when we were notified of a required fix; we would carry out the fix and confirm it but still get the same notification a week later. This seems to be a delay in records being updated and leads to false reporting, which is something that needs to be fixed."
"The only problem I find is that the use cases are built-in. There is no template available that you can modify according to your organization's standards. What they give is very generic, the market standard, but that might not be applicable to every organization."
"The mobile app support for Android and iOS is difficult and needs improvement."
"I personally have not seen much evidence of how Defender can enhance the story of zero trust for enterprises."
"At times, there may be delays in the execution of certain actions and their effects."
"In the Microsoft Azure Portal, in Active Directory, if there is anything on the user it will provide you with the information, but you still have to go through it a bit. And sometimes, I have experienced difficulties in understanding the information, especially because the synchronization between Microsoft Intune and the devices that are connected to the user in Azure Active Directory takes a lot of time."
"The abundance of sub-dashboards and sub-areas within the main dashboard can be confusing, even if it all technically makes sense."
"Automation could be improved, and orchestration could be added to the features."
"I would like to see more emphasis on building the data lake and storing all endpoint data in the enterprise data lake so that data mining can be performed"
"An administration feature will be useful for Cynet."
"They have automated response capability, and they're moving more and more into SOAR capability. They have built-in deception technology with host-file users, phantoms, etc. We used to call them honeypots. So, they're on target. They're doing a really good job, and they should continue to improve with SOAR."
"The command line interface could be improved."
"The reporting functionality in Cynet may not be as comprehensive or flexible as desired."
"Increased application for SOAR abilities across interconnected devices would be a welcome improvement."
"Cynet could improve when a reverse proxy is being used to connect to the servers. There could be an easier configuration because it is not plug-and-play."
"There are some automated network response portions that we want to turn up."
