Chief Information Officer at The C&S Companies
It gives us fantastic information about the security of our environment
The dashboard can seem overwhelming at times. It's fairly simple for the end user, and we don't need to do much to make it work, but the dashboard makes it seem a little more complicated than it actually is. There could also be more guidance on how to set up playbooks.

AI-driven detection has accelerated phishing response and now protects endpoints without slowdown
The best features of SentinelOne Wayfinder Threat Detection and Response are obviously the AI-powered threat detection, which is the most sophisticated I have seen with any other tool. I also noticed that it does not affect the performance of the device, which is something great. I do not know how they have developed it, but it is really impressive. Additionally, I noticed deep visibility into the environment where we can track everything. If something is found, we can easily track it and get a bird's eye view of the overall attack visibility. The visibility feature allows us to easily provide root cause analysis to the respective people, which helps in faster incident investigation. We have seen great outcomes with SentinelOne Wayfinder Threat Detection and Response. First, we conducted a pilot proof of concept and noticed that SentinelOne Wayfinder Threat Detection and Response is very fast. Within a small amount of time, it is able to detect everything and protect the environment. The mean time to detection has been reduced drastically. For example, with other tools, when a phishing email comes in and an attack starts, we learn about these details later and cannot take a proactive approach. With SentinelOne Wayfinder Threat Detection and Response, the tool monitors registry changes and any suspicious executable files continuously. In our pilot use case, within five minutes it reported one suspicious activity involving high encryption from a phishing email. This is something amazing considering all the other tools in the market. The response capability is great. Earlier, we would learn about phishing and threats after two to three days. After conducting the proof of concept, we found that within hours we are notified about threats.
