Enhancements needed for security alerts while ongoing training strengthens defenses

This year, I am going to improve some tools to be installed or maybe acquire some services to better manage our web services and work with my coworkers. Application fiber also needs attention. Nowadays I am making applications that are publicly seen on the Internet. I need some protection, possibly multi-factor authentication improvements. I am seeing, for workflows, some sort of ethical hacking to test our environment. Knowledge of everything, not only the product - maybe some kind of alerts - needs to emerge. I see the current ones as very low-tier, and they must improve.

Helps with Zero-day protection

We use the solution for Zero-day protection. The solution stops any kind of remote code execution. The tool's dashboard needs to load since it is not responsive and takes time to load. I have been using the product for a year. I would rate the tool's stability a six out of ten. I would…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The dashboard makes it easier and more effective to analyze data."

"The most valuable feature of the solution is its area for threat detection."

"This is a stable product."

"When Trellix detects some threats, the device is isolated in a quarantine zone for examination."

"Blocking browser navigation is a feature of the solution with which we have experienced success."

"The product and the services we have are quite good."

"It is a stable solution. Stability-wise, I rate the solution a nine out of ten...I rate the solution's technical support team a nine and a half or ten out of ten."

"The most useful features are behavior monitoring, DLP, and access control. The automation has gotten much better in the last two years than when it was McAfee. It works better now and integrates more smoothly."

More Trellix Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) pros

"We use the solution for Zero-day protection."

Cons

"The console has a lot of bugs, and it creates many issues."

"The technical support must be improved."

"The searching capabilities for the IOCs can be further improved"

"Trellix does not support Linux and Mac."

"One of the issues about the product stems from the failure to work on its administrative scalability. The aforementioned area can be considered for improvement."

"I need some protection, possibly multi-factor authentication improvements."

"The dashboard is split across different platforms. For example, if you want information on Incident Detection, you have to access one dashboard, and for DLP reporting, there's a separate platform. This fragmentation means you can't access everything from a single dashboard."

"The CPU utilization of the product is quite high compared to its competitors."

More Trellix Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) cons

"The tool's dashboard needs to load since it is not responsive and takes time to load."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price is reasonable."

"The licensing costs attached to the solution are very easy to manage. There is a need to make yearly payments towards the licensing costs."

"Speaking about the price, you must use the product to find the product's cost for you."

"The product’s pricing is reasonable."

"Pricing for McAfee MVISION Endpoint Detection and Response is not that expensive, but it's not something that a startup could buy. Pricing for it is for midsized businesses. There's an additional payment if you want data retention for more than thirty days. They gave us data retention for thirty days. Then if you want longer data retention, they have the paid option for a three-month data retention period and for a one-year data retention period."

"The cost is okay, compared to other products."

"Pricing is a problem in South Africa. It could be cheaper here. The rand-to-dollar exchange rate makes it expensive for us. A 25 dollar endpoint cost becomes quite significant when converted to rand."

"On a scale of one to ten, where one is low and ten is high, I rate the solution's pricing an eight out of ten."
