Pros
"Fortinet FortiSandbox is faster than other sandbox solutions.""It is an easily scalable solution.""The solution is easy to manage.""The most valuable features of Fortinet FortiSandbox are customization, ICAP protocol, and integration with other vendors. Additionally, the security work very well.""Performance is a valuable feature.""FortiSandbox helps us handle unknown threats. Every vendor is competing for who can detect an unknown threat the fastest. Fortinet is competitive in the market.""The analysis engine is a very valuable feature.""FortiSandbox analyzes the behavior of processes in a sandbox environment, which is useful for threat hunting. The solution has an excellent standard configuration, and you can prioritize the types of files of VMs you want to analyze. It also integrates seamlessly with other Fortinet solutions, like FortiGate, FortiMail, and FortiEMS."

"Since using Morphisec we have seen a downturn in attacks because Morphisec protects us versus Defenders and whatnot that are signature-based. I know we have not had any issues with ransomware or other zero-day attacks that we've seen with machines that, all of a sudden, have become before we instituted the product. Now the machine had to be re-imaged and there was a loss of data because something was on the machine. You couldn't really determine what was on the machine because nothing was picking it up. The products we were using weren't picking it up.""What's valuable is really the whole kit and caboodle of the Morphisec agent. What it does is genius, in a way, until the bad guys get wise to it. You set it up and then you watch the dashboard. There isn't really much tinkering.""Morphisec has absolutely helped save money on our security stack. The ransomware at the end of the day can cost organizations millions upon millions of dollars. Investing in tools like Morphisec is a great reduction in that cost. If I can spend $10,000 in a year to protect assets that could be ransomed for $20,000,000, that's definitely a bet that one should pursue. Morphisec absolutely it's worth the investment.""The simplicity of the solution, how easy it is to deploy and how small it is when deployed as an agent on a device, is probably the biggest aspect, given what it can do.""Morphisec's in-memory protection is probably the most valuable feature because it stops malicious activity from occurring. If something tries to install or act as a sleeper agent, Morphisec will detect and stop it.""I really like the integration with Microsoft Defender. In addition to having third-party endpoint protection, we're also enabling Defender... I like the reporting that we get from Defender, when it comes in. I like that it's one console showing both Morphisec and Defender where it provides me with full visibility into security events from Defender and Morphisec.""Morphisec is a straightforward solution that is efficient and very stable.""Morphisec stops attacks without needing to know what type of threat it is, just that it is foreign. It is based on injections, so it would know when a software launches. If a software launches and something else also launches, then it would count that as anomalous and block it. Because the software looks at the code, and if it executes something else that is not related, then Morphisec would block it. That is how it works."

Cons
"I don't know if it is viable to do an improvement like this. When there are passwords in the password-protected files, it can't scan them or do things like this. I don't know if an algorithm or something else could make it better. Nowadays, many legitimate office documents have passwords.""In general, maybe they are not updated to cover risks.""In future releases, I would like to see more automation capabilities.""Not practical for real-time web traffic analysis because users won't wait for the FortiSandbox to complete its analysis before accessing content""If you were to compare prices between vendors and manufacturers, you would see that the lowest equipment in the Sandbox line is quite expensive for a new customer.""For the MSSPs, it would be great if the product could display all the threat chains on a dashboard since it is an area where the tool is currently lacking.""If updated, Fortinet FortiSandbox could cover other risks.""The area I would like this solution to be improved in is the integrations for Sandbox with AI and big data ML mechanisms. I think this would be a practical improvement."

"We sometimes have to depend on the support team to know what action we should take. If the solution for an alert can be built into the report that we are getting, it will save time, and the interaction with support would be less. At times, corrective action is required, but at times, we don't need to take any action. It would be good if we get to know in the report that a particular infection doesn't require any action. It will save us time and effort.""In the Windows Defender integration, they have put in a report of computers that need Windows Defender updates. If those updates could be kicked off directly from the dashboard, instead of having to go to another system entirely, that would be good.""We have only had four attacks in the last year, "attacks" being some benign PDF from a vendor that, for some reason, were triggered. There were no actual attacks. They were just four false positives, or something lowly like adware. There have been false positives with both the on-premises solution and the cloud solution.""Some of the filters for the console need improvement. There are alerts that show up and just being able to acknowledge that we've seen those and not turn them off, but dismiss them, would be a huge benefit.""If anything, tech support might be their weakest link. The process of getting someone involved sometimes takes a little time. It seems to me that they should have all the data they need to let me know whether an alert is legitimate or not, but they tend to need a lot of information from me to get to the bottom of something. It usually takes a little longer than I would expect.""We wanted to have multi-tenants in their cloud platform, so every entity can look into their own systems and not see other systems in other entities. I have a beta version on that now. I would like them to incorporate that in the cloud solution.""We have discovered some bugs in the new releases that they've had to fix, so I would like to see more testing and QA on their side before they release.""It might be a bit much to ask, but we are now beginning to use Morphisec Scout, which provides vulnerability information. At this time, it's recognizing vulnerabilities and reporting them to us, but it's not necessarily resolving them. There's still a separate manual process to resolve those vulnerabilities, primarily through upgrades. We have to do that outside of Morphisec. If Morphisec could somehow have that capability built into it, that would be very effective."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "There are no costs in addition to the standard licensing fees."
  • "There are additional costs, which isn't included in the licensing fee."
  • "The solution is not expensive at all."
  • "Altogether, it is about €10,000 for the Sandbox and Email Gateway."
  • "We are on an annual license to use the solution. We have an additional feature that is integrated with S5, which is working well."
  • "There is a license to use this solution."
  • "Fortinet is more reasonable than Palo Alto."
  • "The price is competitive."
  • More Fortinet FortiSandbox Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "It is priced correctly for what it does. They end up doing a good deal of discounting, but I think it is priced appropriately."
  • "We are still using a separate tool. I know for our 600 or I think we're actually licensed for up to 700 users, it runs me 23 or $24,000 a year. When you're talking to that many users plus servers being protected, that's well worth the investment for that dollar amount."
  • "Licenses are per endpoint, and that's true for the cloud version as well. The only difference is that there is a little extra charge for the cloud version."
  • "Our licensing is tied into our contract. Because we have a long-term contract, our pricing is a little bit lower. It is per year, so we don't get charged per endpoint, but we do have a cap. Our cap is 80 endpoints. If we were to go over 80, when we renewed our contract, which is not until three years are over. Then, they would reevaluate, and say, "Well, you have more than 80 devices active right now. This is going to be the price change." They know that we are installing and replacing computers, so the numbers will be all over the place depending on whether you archive or don't archive, which is the reason why we just have to keep up on that stuff."
  • "It is an annual subscription basis per device. For the devices that we have in scope right now, it is about $25,000 a year."
  • "It does not have multi-tenants. If South Africa wants to show only the machines that they have, they need their own cloud incidence. It is not possible to have that in a single cloud incidence with multiple tenants in it, instead you need to have multiple cloud incidences. Then, if you have that, it will be more expensive. However, they are going to change that, which is good."
  • "It is a little bit more expensive than other security products that we use, but it does provide us good protection. So, it is a trade-off."
  • "The pricing is definitely fair for what it does."

    Morphisec's cybersecurity platform is centered around its Moving Target Defense technology. This innovative approach is designed to prevent attacks by making the system environment dynamically unpredictable to attackers, thereby neutralizing zero-day threats, evasive malware, and in-memory exploits without requiring prior knowledge of attack patterns. Unlike traditional security systems that rely on detection and response strategies, Morphisec operates on the principle of attack prevention, reducing the system's attack surface and minimizing security operation efforts.

    Morphisec provides cybersecurity defense solutions that protect against advanced threats through proactive and predictive security measures. Key features include Moving Target Defense, which Constantly changes system memory and application structures, making them hard to target. Also, Morphisec enables threat hunting and visibility by providing detailed forensic data on blocked attacks, enabling advanced threat hunting capabilities.

      Morphisec’s key capabilities include:

      • Anti-ransomware: Advanced ransomware protection leveraging dedicated AMTD mechanisms for safeguarding against ransomware attacks, from early attack stages to the impact/encryption phase.
      • Credential theft protection: Advanced credential theft protection leveraging AMTD for safeguarding against Infostealer/credential stealing attacks
      • Enhanced cyber-resilience: Implementing AMTD to efficiently mitigate the costs associated with recovery from advanced, previously unknown evasive threats, thereby bolstering overall cyber defense strategy.
      • Prevention-first security: Prevents threats without prior knowledge: signatures, behavioral patterns, or indicators of attacks (IoAs).
      • Operational efficiency: Providing simple installation with negligible performance impact and no additional staffing requirements. 
      • Lower IT and security costs: Significantly reducing security analyst alert triage time and costs due to early prevention, exact threat classification and prioritization of high-risk alerts.
      • Risk-based vulnerability prioritization for exposure management: Empowering organizations with continuous business context and risk-driven remediation recommendations, enabling effective prioritization of patching processes and reduced exposure with patchless protection, powered by AMTD.  
      • Flexible deployment: Offering a SaaS-based, multi-tenant and API-driven platform. 
      • Incident Response Services: The Morphisec Incident Response Team works collaboratively with client organizations to triage critical security incidents and conduct forensic analysis to solve immediate cyberattacks as well as provide recommendations for reducing the organization's risk exposure. Morphisec's team helps to identify and resolve unknown threats to get organizations' networks restored quickly.

      Morphisec is particularly effective in industries such as finance, healthcare, and government, where highly sensitive data is often targeted. Its ability to provide robust protection without the need for extensive updates makes it suitable for environments where system stability and uptime are critical.

      In summary, Morphisec offers a proactive cybersecurity solution designed to outsmart modern cyber threats through a strategic, preventative approach, making it an excellent choice for organizations aiming to bolster their defenses against sophisticated attacks.
