Featured Reviews

Md Abdul Hakim - PeerSpot reviewer
System Engineer at Corporate Projukti Limited
Integration capabilities impress while room for improvement exists in cloud compatibility
1. Enhanced Cloud Integration Current Gap: Log360 lacks native integration with Microsoft Intune and cloud-based Active Directory (Azure AD), limiting visibility for organizations transitioning to hybrid or fully cloud environments. Requested Improvements: Direct Intune Log Collection: Ability to ingest and correlate logs from Intune-managed devices to monitor compliance, device health, and security policies. Azure AD Deep Integration: Support for Azure AD audit logs, conditional access events, and identity protection alerts to provide end-to-end visibility. Cloud Workload Monitoring: Extend coverage to SaaS applications (e.g., Microsoft 365, AWS, GCP) for unified threat detection. Why It Matters: Many clients have migrated from on-prem AD to cloud-first setups this year. Without cloud-native log collection, critical security events (e.g., rogue Intune policies or Azure AD breaches) go unmonitored. 2. Improved Automation and Response Current Gap: Limited automated remediation (e.g., auto-isolating compromised devices) forces manual intervention. Requested Features: Playbook Automation: Pre-built workflows to auto-resolve common issues (e.g., disabling users after brute-force attacks). SOAR Integration: APIs to connect with SIEM/SOAR platforms (e.g., Splunk, Palo Alto Cortex) for escalated threat response.

Automation through playbooks has transformed incident response and continuously improves detection
The best features Trellix Helix Connect offers include automation through playbooks and SOAR capability, which has been the most impactful feature for me. It helps by standardizing response actions, reducing manual steps, decreasing mean time to contain, and minimizing analyst fatigue. Automation made the biggest operational difference.Before Helix playbooks, our workflow was manual and large. Analysts reviewed EDR alerts, then checked Active Directory logs manually, looked up hash reputation in different tools such as VirusTotal and Hybrid-Analyzer, then verified if the endpoint is critical, reported an incident, and created a ticket with the SOC, NOC, or a different help desk, and perhaps contacted IT for containment of the incident. That process could take up to one hour for medium-severity events. After we implemented playbooks, we designed a conditional playbook for suspicious PowerShell execution. If EDR flags encoded PowerShell and the user account is privileged, there are different options. Then automatically it isolates the endpoint, calculates risk score, creates an incident ticket, notifies the corresponding SOC channel, and enriches the information with threat intelligence. Another positive organizational impact will be faster incident triage, reduced alert noise through correlation, better cross-domain visibility for endpoint, network, and identity when you work in a Trellix environment in your infrastructure, improved reporting for leadership, and increased SOC maturity and operation consistency. Trellix Helix Connect has made a significant impact on my organization because I can reduce mean time to contain, improve alert quality, standardize incident handling with playbook enforcement, and provide stronger executive reporting on Helix incident metrics improving MTDD and MTTC tracking as well as internal risk posture reporting. Overall, it has an impact because it helps transition the organization from tool-centric monitoring to orchestrated intelligence-driven response, improving operational maturity, analyst productivity, and measurable security performance indicators. For metrics, before Helix, our Mean Time to Detect was managed through manual correlation across tools. After implementing Helix correlation and enrichment, the average MTTD reduced to between twenty and twenty-five minutes. The MTTC reduced on average to between one and two hours.
