Offers dashboard accessibility and effectively manages threat detection and response
Our security posture improved since implementing Fortinet FortiEDR in terms of our overall setup, as we've experienced significant enhancements. We now have streamlined operations, better dashboards, and improved monitoring capabilities, consolidating multiple functions into a single solution. Previously, we were managing three separate vendors alongside support from our IT arm and outsourced assistance. With FortiEDR, everything is integrated under one dashboard, making our processes more efficient. Fortinet FortiEDR effectively manages threat detection and response in our daily operations with great robustness. Previously, we had to rely on two separate Palo Alto devices for bandwidth management, both lacking real-time capabilities. Our search engine, detection engine, and database were also disjointed. However, with FortiEDR, we've achieved parity in functionality for both functions. Consequently, our bandwidth performance has seen a significant boost, providing users with a stable stream to work with. The implementation of automation has had a significant impact on our team's workload. As we operate shared services centers across the APAC region, having this infrastructure in place has provided us with visibility across all three sites. This visibility, facilitated by automation, is particularly beneficial for higher management and decision-makers. It's a notable advancement for our operations. FortiEDR has played a crucial role in mitigating the impact of breaches within our healthcare IT industry. Given the vast amount of data we handle and the real-time nature of data processing via APIs and centralized databases, FortiEDR has streamlined our operations. It allows us to process data at our own pace without encountering significant obstacles or requiring extensive workarounds. Essentially, it has provided us with a seamless transition between sandbox and production environments, making our workflow smoother and more efficient.

Offers a wide range of features that work together to provide alerts and evaluate potential threats
There are certainly some weaknesses. In terms of the product itself, the main weakness lies in the need for highly skilled personnel to operate it effectively. This is why I prefer to use Managed Detection and Response. The problem is that there are millions of people worldwide who lack the necessary security skills and resources to manage security issues. It's a specific challenge for each company. If you don't have your own Security Operations Center (SOC) and lack the complete set of competencies and skills to manage the hardware, using Managed Detection and Response instead of Endpoint Detection and Response allows you to delegate the high-scale layer to experts who will handle a part of the job. Then, you only need to decide whether to rely on their advice or not, which requires fewer skills. Therefore, the main weakness lies in the inherent complexity of the solution. In future releases, I would like to see an eXDR layer for Kaspersky. It's something that is essential.

I like the solution's web protection features and external device control
We use Seqrite to provide endpoint security for Linux systems I like Seqrite's web protection features and external device control. I would like to see Seqrite add a remote profile so we can implement different policies for users connecting to the in-office LAN and those accessing the office…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I like FortiClient EMS. FortiEDR has a lot of great features like lockdown mode, remote wipes, and encryption. I can set malware outbreak policies and controls for detecting abnormalities. You can also simulate phishing attacks."
"NGAV and EDR features are outstanding."
"Forensics is a valuable feature of Fortinet FortiEDR."
"The product detects and blocks threats and is more proactive than firewalls."
"The setup is pretty simple."
"The product's initial setup phase is very easy."
"It is very easy to set up. I would rate my experience with the initial setup a ten out of ten, with ten being very easy to set up."
"Fortinet has helped free up around 20 percent of our staff's time to help us out."
"Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response Optimum have met our requirements."
"The encryption feature that allows you complete control of your device is what I found most valuable in Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response Optimum."
"The most beneficial aspect of Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response Optimum is its protection capabilities, followed by its device management capabilities. The ability to remotely install software is highly advantageous, making it a convenient and helpful feature."
"Support has been helpful."
"What we like most about Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response Optimum is its prompt response. We also like that it does scans on a daily basis, over every laptop or machine we set it for, and it also generates the report daily."
"The performance is good."
"Kaspersky EDR is constantly updated and can respond to any threat nearly in real-time. They work hard to produce all the updates on time."
"The initial setup was easy."
"The solution is stable."
"Seqrite Endpoint Security is a good solution."
"The most valuable part of the solution is its ransomware backup feature."
"The update process and policy control are good."
"The two valuable features are anti-ransomware and data loss protection."
"The most valuable feature is its endpoint protection, particularly the antivirus component. It has been very effective in protecting our clients, and since its installation, we haven't encountered any issues with compromised endpoints or virus impacts."
"The product's initial setup phase is easy."
"The convenience has been great."
 

Cons

"ZTNA can improve latency."
"The solution is not stable."
"The only minor concern is occasional interference with desired programs."
"The dashboard isn't easy to access and manage."
"I would like the solution to extend beyond endpoint protection and include other attack surfaces such as other network components."
"The solution is not user-friendly."
"Everything with Fortinet having to do with their cloud services. They need to invest more in their internal infrastructure that they are running in the cloud. One of the things I find with their cloud environment compared to others' is that they go cheap on the equipment. So it causes some performance degradation."
"Intelligence aspects need improvement"
"They should provide more notifications for incidents and more clarification or information about malicious activity."
"I want the tool’s pricing to improve."
"I want Kaspersky to extend its products to internet protection. For example, I would like them to develop a firewall integrated with EDR."
"EDR Optimum's scalability could be improved."
"What I want to be added to Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response Optimum is a single pane of glass management, where everything is integrated into a single pane of glass."
"The technology grows day by day, so we need to check for updates and do the updates daily. Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response Optimum is still improving over time and quality-wise, there are still things that need to be changed in the product, so that's why I rated it nine out of ten. Compatibility could also be improved in the product."
"The solution can improve the uninstallation process. The removal of the agent can be difficult. The purpose is for security, but it requires a lot of time and sometimes a special tool."
"In terms of the Pakistani market and talking from a salesperson's perspective, I'd suggest that Kaspersky introduce a bundle of Kaspersky EDR-Optimum or Kaspersky EDR-Expert along with its Business Select/Advance suite."
"We are using Apple devices, and the advanced device control service doesn't work for M1 chips devices, like Apple MacBooks."
"I would like to see Seqrite add a remote profile so we can implement different policies for users connecting to the in-office LAN and those accessing the office network from home or a public internet connection."
"The interface is slow."
"When we fire any employee connected remotely over the internet, we need a security feature that blocks the system and the device."
"The solution needs to improve stability."
"A handbook of known issues and quick fixes should be given so that troubleshooting and frustration are less."
"Sometimes, small and medium businesses, or even startups with just five, ten, or fifteen systems, are also keen to secure their data. There is a reluctance on the part of the technical team to extend installation support when the opportunity sizes are smaller. Seqrite Endpoint Security has a lot of value. Still, its marketing could be done much better on a larger scale, especially in India, in light of the new DPDP 2023 Act, which the Indian Parliament passed. It would be even more valuable if Seqrite could incorporate features to help companies comply with this law, it would be even more helpful."
"The pricing could be a bit lower."
