Roshan Jadhav - PeerSpot reviewer
Has improved threat detection and streamlined incident analysis through centralized control and AI-driven insights
People are looking for Cynet because it has next-generation threat protection that detects zero-day threats. It has UEBA (user entity behavior analysis), threat hunting features, and storage device control where we can create profiles and block unauthorized USB storage devices. We can also create threat protection policies to detect malware, ransomware, and many other threats. The most valuable feature is the UBA (User behavior analysis). It has integration with SIEM solutions, allowing us to share our logs to third-party SIEM servers. Cynet has AI integration which showcases complete forensic data about threats, making it very easy to understand what happened with the system and what type of incident was detected. Autonomous breach protection is a feature of Cynet which can detect and mitigate known and unknown threats based on signatures. If there are any signature-less files, malware, or ransomware, it will detect them based on autonomous breach protection capabilities. The centralized management console provides a dashboard where we can see four types of attack vectors and incident counts in real-time. It continuously scans the radar and shows open alerts related to files, hosts, users, or networks. We can easily export these alerts and send reports via email.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The dashboard is beautiful, overall easy of use, and the UBA and NBA features are valued."
"I have found the continued support and pretty much all the features to be valuable. They all stand out as being positive. It continues to detect unusual activity when it's supposed to, and so far we haven't had any issues."
"A reliable security system that automatically quarantines anything suspicious."
"The initial setup is very fast and very easy."
"The most valuable aspect of this solution is that it is a complete solution, which makes cyber security very free and almost perfect. There is no such thing as perfect cyber security, but as far as it can go, sign it comes close to being perfect and holistic. Cynet is always comprehensive from the perspective of functionality, as well as from the standpoint that it encompasses not only technology but also processes and people. The triad of people, processes, and technology is crucial and should always be in place. To my knowledge, no other product or platform combines all three components into one, but Cynet does."
"I would recommend Cynet to others."
"Cynet's centralized control feature is very user-friendly, has a good user interface, and is very convenient, requiring hardly one or two people to manage the entire console, which is not resource-heavy and automates many processes, making it very easy to use without alert fatigue due to low false positives."
"Advanced detection and protection against ransomware paired with SOC monitoring are the most valuable features. They have 24/7 SOC monitoring and file activity. It is a very robust tool."
"Trellix XDR is an excellent solution that is continually improving."
"The analytics assessment and flexibility of the platform are valuable."
"It contributes to our system's robust event detection and analysis, enabling us to respond effectively to incidents."
 

Cons

"The reporting functionality in Cynet may not be as comprehensive or flexible as desired."
"Management of the console could be simplified and made more user-friendly because right now it's not very easy to use."
"An administration feature will be useful for Cynet."
"Cynet fails to deploy the same technology in mobile devices."
"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"
"Their deployment needs some work, especially with integration with remote monitoring management systems like Datto AutoTask or ConnectWise Automate."
"Their support for issues related to the portal or feature problems isn't great."
"Most of their times are in Greenwich Mean Time. I would like to see more local time zones."
"The EdgeGear solution is an area that requires attention, specifically regarding AI solutions and intelligence features."
"Technical support is crucial, especially when facing critical issues. It's rated six out of ten. Improvements are needed in the support sector, with a focus on providing expert assistance during production periods."
"The platform should enhance compatibility with all other SIEM solutions."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The licensing for Cynet is yearly. The solution pricing depends on the customer, but it is not very expensive."
"There is an extra cost if you want the support of Cynet."
"it's not cheap, but I would rate it a three out of ten. If one is cheap and ten is expensive."
