Though a stable tool, the UI needs improvement
Kiuwan can improve its UI a little more. The user experience can be made better. Kiuwan offers a user interface that is similar to the one offered by Windows 7 or Windows 98, which I saw when I ran the tool and tried to scan the repository to find the security issues. The product's UI has certain shortcomings, where improvements are required.

Long-term endpoint security has protected our organization from ransomware and data loss
Trellix IVX for Enterprise Applications Collaboration is not something we are currently using. We are not using FireEye Email Security right now. We are not using the cloud version of this product. It is not difficult to manage because our team is very well trained and aware of Trellix IVX for Enterprise Applications endpoint security because we have been using it for more than 20 years. Our team is very well trained on the endpoint security. However, because we have a very distributed architecture of our organization, it is very difficult to change or replace on laptop or desktop computers. At most, only two or three engineers are involved. Trellix IVX for Enterprise Applications is very robust and easy to handle data loss protection, which are very good features. We are also using Fortinet products. The vendor team is also monitoring and does proactive measures to protect from ransomware and other security threats. We have a service level agreement with the local vendor to maintain the solution and solve other issues. The overall review rating for this product is 8 out of 10.

"​We use Kiuwan to locate the source of application vulnerabilities."
"I personally like the way it breaks down security vulnerabilities with LoC at first glance."
"The most valuable feature is the time to resolution, where it tells you how long it is going to take to get to a zero-base or a five-star security rating."
"The most valuable feature of the solution stems from the fact that it is quick when processing and giving an output or generating a report."

Cons

"I would like to see better integration with Azure DevOps in the next release of this solution."

"The QA developer and security could be improved."
"For mobile development, we are not too experienced, and it is not the perfect tool because the integration with certain products is very manual."
"More languages and frameworks would enhance this tool."

"Kiuwan's support has room for improvement. You can only open a ticket is through email, and the support team is outside of our country. They should have a support number or chat."
