Network detection enhances security while seamless integration boosts utility
I use Fortinet FortiNDR for its Network Detection features, primarily with FortiGate on-premises. However, I do not handle day-to-day operations myself; my team manages the tools. In general, there is no issue with FortiGate in our company Some of the valuable features include FortiGate's Network…

Continuous network insight has improved early threat detection and streamlined investigations
Overall, we have a positive experience with Trellix Network Detection and Response, but like any enterprise security solution, there are areas where it can continue to improve. One area would be user interface and dashboard customization. While the platform provides a lot of valuable information, new users can sometimes face a learning curve when navigating and investigating and creating customized views. More intuitive dashboards would simplify workflows and help analysts access critical information even faster. Another area for improvement is reporting and analytics. The existing reporting capabilities are useful, but more flexibility and customizable reporting options would make it easier to generate executive-level summaries, compliance reports, and operational metrics for different audiences.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The dashboards are very informative compared to other solutions like Cisco, providing valuable insights into network threats."
"Using Fortinet FortiNDR as a bundle is cost-effective, providing a complete package of tools."
"Application categorization is the most valuable feature for us."
"The most valuable feature of the solution stems from how it allows users to do the investigation part. Another important part of the product that is valuable is associated with how it gives information to users in the form of a storyline."
"The product has helped improve our organization by being easy to use and integrate. This saves time, trouble and money."
"The simplified Alert Dashboard is straightforward to navigate."
"The best features that Trellix Network Detection and Response offers are visibility, threat detection, and immediate response, which allows us to take action almost instantly while keeping proof through proper data capture and maintaining logs for future analysis to prevent attacks and ensure that we have the right policies and controls."
"Before FireEye, most of the times that an incident would happen nobody would be able to find out where or why the incident occurred and that the system is compromised. FireEye is a better product because if the incident already happened I know that the breach is there and that the system is compromised so we can take appropriate action to prevent anything from happening."
"FireEye has created an ecosystem of products integrated with their own SIEM, which is cloud-based and integrates with network security, email security, host security and the like."
"Trellix Network Detection and Response has positively impacted my organization by addressing performance issues, specifically by offloading heavy traffic inspection and SSL inspection through sensors due to the limitations of the firewall."
 

Cons

"There is room for improvement in third-party integrations, particularly with other vendors like Check Point and Palo Alto."
"I would like to see the inclusion of sandboxing in the bundling. Currently, sandbox is not included in our package."
"It would be great if we could create granular reports based on the protocols, types of attacks, regions of attack, etc. Also we would like to easily be able to add exceptions to rules in cases of false positives."
"To improve Trellix Network Detection and Response, I suggest enhancing reporting customization; the reports can be much better, and I should have the ability to customize them much more freely."
"Stability is fine as long as we don't go deeper into the system. Once we go deeper into the SSM, inspection, and decryption, we get some issues."
"I believe Trellix Network Detection and Response can be improved by integrating machine learning into its detection response capabilities."
"Management of the appliance could be greatly improved."
"I heard that FireEye recently was hacked, and a lot of things were revealed."
"I would like to see in Trellix Network Detection and Response more explanation about some details of the threat, and I wish it had more actions that you can take to contain the host or move it somewhere else."
"Trellix Network Detection and Response is a powerful tool with areas that need improvement, such as dashboard customization options and reporting flexibility."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"FireEye is comparable to other products, such as HX, but seems expensive. It may cause us to look at other products in the market."
"When I compare this solution to its competitors in the market, I find that it is a little expensive."
"Pricing and licensing are reasonable compared to competitors."
"The tool is a bit pricey."
"It's an expensive solution."

"We're partners with Cisco so we get a reasonable price. It's cheaper than Palo Alto in terms of licensing."
"The pricing is fair, a little expensive, but fair. We've evaluated other products, and they're similarly priced."
