Peace of mind in identifying compromises in your M365 tenants
Huntress Managed ITDR examines various signals from the M365 tenants. If anything suspicious is identified, their SOC analysts can take a closer look and subsequently take action. It's a comprehensive solution covering endpoints and cloud tenants, offering peace of mind. I recognized its benefits immediately, as it provides protection against M365 identity compromises, like admin account breaches.
Abdullah Al Hadi - PeerSpot reviewer
Customization capabilities allow clients to autonomously deploy policies
There are a few areas where Trellix Endpoint Security ( /categories/endpoint-protection-platform-epp ) can improve. Firstly, the high CPU utilization when agents are installed can negatively impact client systems. Another issue is with end-users outside the network, where the agent handler sometimes fails to deploy the product properly. Improvements are needed in forensic analytics to detect specific vulnerabilities. It would also help if detection specifics were identified more quickly and the problem-solving process accelerated, especially to meet larger clients' expectations.

Pros

"Huntress Managed ITDR examines various nulls from the M365 tenants. If anything suspicious is identified, their SOC analysts can take a closer look and subsequently take action."
"I rate the overall solution as a ten out of ten."
"Implementing Huntress Managed ITDR has improved our business by allowing us to be more proactive with our security posture."
"The initial setup was very easy."
"The centralized management with the EDR and ITDR is beneficial."
"This is a good solution for antivirus and malware protection."
"The installation is pretty straightforward."
"The solution scales well."
"The most valuable features of Trellix Endpoint Security include its protection capabilities such as DNS and endpoint security, DNS threat prevention, as well as advanced threat prevention."
"Provides good mobile device protection."
"Trellix Endpoint Security is a proven, robust, and cost-effective solution that protects the organization from different types of ransomware and attacks."
"The tool has contributed to improving our security posture. While it's just one part of our overall solution, it plays a crucial role. As we continue to evolve, we anticipate it becoming even more important alongside other aspects like network behavior and additional metrics."
"The loss prevention feature would be the most valuable."
 

Cons

"The product needs further maturity, with some improvements in the user interface."
"More in-depth reporting could be beneficial for the solution."
"If anything, it's created more work, but that's because we're now seeing things that we weren't seeing before."
"More in-depth reporting could be beneficial for the solution."
"The product needs further maturity, with some improvements in the user interface."
"One suggestion is they should reduce the constant notifications. Whenever I open my laptop, there are too many notifications from McAfee, and it gets annoying."
"The central monitoring dashboard needs improvement."
"There should be better integration between the ePolicy Orchestrator and FireEye console. The integration of both consoles should be better."
"The solution lacks device control."
"The solution could provide open XDR in addition to EDR."
"The agent is very heavy, so we have to ensure that we have a lightweight agent for Windows systems."
"If there's a possibility for remote assistance or investigation support in the future, it would be beneficial. Currently, we use another remote software for such purposes. If this feature could be included in the next version, that would be an improvement. The feature is called Remote Administration. I'm somewhat satisfied, but there's an issue I recently encountered. When attempting to scan a suspected host machine, Symantec Endpoint Security did not provide any alerts. However, when we installed Malwarebytes and ran a scan, it detected a threat that wasn't identified by Symantec. We raised this concern with the team for resolution, and the investigation is still ongoing."
"The product could be flexible and offer better pricing."
