Find out in this report how the two Attack Surface Management (ASM) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The product can scale."
"We are able to detect a lot of things, actually, and see what is happening in our network."
"What I like about Darktrace, is that you can quickly identify threats."
"The solution is outstanding from a monitoring perspective."
"We have found the product to be stable and issue-free."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is that it does not require human intervention to eliminate a threat."
"In terms of features, the data or information they collect and unsupervised machine learning are very valuable. Its unsupervised machine learning has reduced our team's effort. Both Darktrace and Vectra work on unsupervised machine learning that learns the behavior or develops a profile on its own, which allows our security team to do some other tasks rather than spending time on Darktrace or Vectra. Because of unsupervised machine learning, its detection capability is quite good. Along with that, if we utilize the integration feature properly, the automated incident response capability of Darktrace is quite useful."
"The initial setup is simple."
"The advantage of the solution is being able to go look up threat actors and get a lot of detailed information about different attacks and different tactics and general information about threats."
"The feature I have found most valuable is directory monitoring. We experienced an instance of threat actors trying to ensure a complex and massive attack against our customer's infrastructure on the forum. That is, they were animating people on a formum. The solution alerted us to this two days ahead of the attack, which gave us plenty of time to prepare for it."
"It is so valuable to have someone performing these functions outside of our business hours when we don't have staff in the building. We've seen a lot of solid metrics on the amount of malware that it's detecting and resolving. We're pleased with it so far."
"It would be helpful if they could recognize incidents and simplify the customer's challenge to identify what is happening."
"The program is quite expensive."
"The solution can improve the reporting."
"Darktrace could improve its features, such as monitoring and detecting ransomware."
"The solution could be easier to use."
"In an upcoming release, there could be more customizable playbooks or a library of playbooks to choose from."
"I believe their network monitoring device licensing module could use some improvement."
"There aren't so many third-party vendor platforms natively integrated with the platform."
"I think that the data query that is used for data cloud language should be improved. It's really hard to query actual data from the platform."
"Mandiant's on-prem client is too processor-intensive, so it's putting a strain on the local device's CPU. When a scan is running on the device, the other processing tasks slow to a crawl. We're still trying to figure out the correct settings for the client."
"They could have better support. Now that they've merged, they are moving towards a portal system, which isn't very helpful."
