Dynamic file analysis enhances threat detection capabilities
Cloud sandbox allows customers to analyze email and text documents without purchasing any hardware. The system analyzes files dynamically and provides feedback on the impact of the file. Cloud sandbox manages the analysis using Hillstone on the cloud, offering a service to detect unknown threats. It's easy to integrate and offers dynamic analysis supporting many types of files.

It is a stable solution, but they should make the user interface easier to understand
The solution's initial setup takes work. We have to organize multiple paths and many features. The deployment process takes less than a week. But it takes a month to complete if we want to make the solution smarter by integrating it with various devices. I rate the process as a six out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Cloud sandbox allows customers to analyze email and text documents without purchasing any hardware."
"The solution is really scalable for the high-end power, enterprise customer."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to write rules and triggers for network communication, and then being able to investigate based on that."
"The most valuable features are the integration and ease of use."
"Incident management is its most valuable feature."
"It's quite economical compared to other solutions in the market."
"In my opinion, the solution's most valuable feature is its capacity to monitor network traffic, logs from devices within the network, and network captures. This capability extends beyond logs to include full network capturing."
"The most valuable feature is the security that it provides."
"The software is scalable to whatever is required, and you can also put a lot of resources in the cloud."
 

Cons

"For implementation, if the system can improve or provide more training, it would be better."
"We have encountered issues with unresolved crashes."
"The multi-tenant capabilities are lagging compared to IBM QRadar."
"Security needs improvement."
"Log aggregation is an issue with this solution because there are a huge number of alerts in a single instance."
"The log system is a bit complex and has room for improvement."
"The implementation needs assistance."
"The tool's integration capability isn't so great."
"The user interface is a little bit difficult for new users and it needs to be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"Compared to the competition, the is price is not that high."
"Our license is for one year."
"The product price was reasonable for my region and the market."
"The product is expensive."
"We have yearly licensing costs. The license fee can be based on the volume of EPS. Some organizations may have, as a gentlemanly gesture, 10,000 EPS and get a 3,000 EPS license but actually use 5,000 EPS."
"The new pricing and licensing mechanisms are fair. I would advise always to get the full solution (i.e., not only Logs)."
"There is a licensing fee and the customer can choose whether he wishes this to be subscription-based or perpetual."
"It provides tools to assist in selecting the appropriate license and usage scenarios."
