Delivers efficiency and agility with USB control limitations
One area where we lag is that, since we use everything from Heimdal, including XDR and other features, we also use the privilege manager feature called Elevation. What we lack is granular USB control. We have an issue where we can only switch USB on or off. I want to whitelist specific devices in the network, which I currently cannot do.

Provides comprehensive threat insights but needs more defensive playbooks
For Trellix Insights, there are both positive and negative aspects. Playbooks is a very good feature. We have about 12 Playbooks, which are actions that we can implement for adjusting the infrastructure to stop threats and vulnerabilities. That's the positive aspect. However, for the defensive Playbooks, when connecting with Trellix Insights, we have only one defensive Playbook. Some customers question why there is only one. While Playbooks and defensive Playbooks serve similar purposes, in Trellix Insights, defensive Playbooks appear at the top. It would be beneficial to have more than just one defensive Playbook. Trellix Insights has existed for many years, and since this new product was released, there has only been one defensive Playbook. This is an area that needs improvement. They need to add more defensive Playbooks quickly, considering many years have passed.
