Executive SummaryUpdated on Dec 1, 2024

Trellix Network Detection and Response and Morphisec compete in the network security category. Morphisec seems to have the upper hand due to its adaptability and lower resource impact.

Features: Trellix Network Detection and Response is known for its robust threat detection capabilities, including zero-day attack detection, application filtering, and real-time response. The integration with CM, deep malware analysis, and incident response are significant strengths. Morphisec stands out with its signatureless approach, in-memory attack protection, and Moving Target Defense. It provides seamless integration with Microsoft Defender.

Room for Improvement: Trellix faces challenges with high false positives and lacks certain advanced features like granular reporting and better integration capabilities. Users desire improved cloud connection, more customization, and simplified VM management. Morphisec could enhance its reporting functionality and reduce false positives. Users also seek better customer interaction and improved cloud deployment efficiency.

Ease of Deployment and Customer Service: Trellix primarily utilizes on-premises deployment, which can be less flexible compared to Morphisec's options ranging from public and private cloud to hybrid cloud configurations. This flexibility gives Morphisec an edge in adaptability. In terms of customer service, Trellix is praised for global support, while Morphisec is recognized for educational pricing and customer accommodation.

Pricing and ROI: Trellix is perceived as pricier, justified by its comprehensive threat detection capabilities and is seen as a high-value investment by some users. Morphisec is competitively priced, offering significant cost benefits, especially compared to more expensive solutions like CrowdStrike. Both products report strong ROI, with Morphisec noted for preventing breaches efficiently.

Offers in-memory protection at a lower price than competitors

Morphisec's in-memory protection is probably the most valuable feature because it stops malicious activity from occurring. If something tries to install or act as a sleeper agent, Morphisec will detect and stop it. Morphisec's Moving Target Defense is critical to hardening our attack surface. If it detects something, it indicates whether it's valid. That means you've got a breach requiring investigation. It detects anomalies but doesn't necessarily point to what caused them. You still need to do that work. The solution is reasonably easy to administer. They made some changes last year, adding a cloud-based monitoring solution that makes deploying and monitoring our endpoints easy.

Continuous network insight has improved early threat detection and streamlined investigations

Overall, we have a positive experience with Trellix Network Detection and Response, but like any enterprise security solution, there are areas where it can continue to improve. One area would be user interface and dashboard customization. While the platform provides a lot of valuable information, new users can sometimes face a learning curve when navigating and investigating and creating customized views. More intuitive dashboards would simplify workflows and help analysts access critical information even faster. Another area for improvement is reporting and analytics. The existing reporting capabilities are useful, but more flexibility and customizable reporting options would make it easier to generate executive-level summaries, compliance reports, and operational metrics for different audiences.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The biggest feature is that it hides everything from your operating system that's running in-memory from anything to try to run against it. That's the most unique thing that's on the market. There's nothing else out there that's quite like that. That's a big selling point and why we went with it. It does exactly what the design does. If you can't find it, you can't execute against it."

"We don't have to do anything as a user or as an admin. It does everything by default with its coding and inbuilt AI-based intelligence. We don't have to instruct it about what to do. It automatically takes corrective actions and quarantines or deletes a virus, malware, etc. That is the best part that I like about it."

"If you have the ability to get Morphisec into their environment, it's going to be a hundred percent return on investment."

"Morphisec makes it very easy for IT teams of any size to prevent breaches of critical systems because of the design of their tool. When we evaluated Morphisec, the CIO and I sat and listened. What attracted us to them is the fact that it stops activity at the point of detection. That saves a lot of time because now we are not investigating and trying to trace down what to turn off. We have already prevented it, which makes it very much safer and more secure."

"Since using Morphisec we have seen a downturn in attacks because Morphisec protects us versus Defenders and whatnot that are signature-based. I know we have not had any issues with ransomware or other zero-day attacks that we've seen with machines that, all of a sudden, have become before we instituted the product. Now the machine had to be re-imaged and there was a loss of data because something was on the machine. You couldn't really determine what was on the machine because nothing was picking it up. The products we were using weren't picking it up."

"Morphisec has enabled us to become a lot less paranoid when it comes to staff clicking on things or accessing things that they shouldn't that could infect the whole system. Our original ransomware attack that happened came from someone's Google drive and then just filtered on through that. It has put our minds at ease a lot more in running it. It's also another layer of security that has been proven to be effective for us."

"Morphisec Guard enables us to see at a glance whether our users have device control and disk encryption enabled properly. This is important because we are a global company operating with multiple entities. Previously, we didn't have that visibility. Now, we have visibility so we can pinpoint some locations where there are machines that are not really protected, offline, etc. It gives us visibility, which is good."

"Morphisec is quite an important tool for us in terms of security and InfoSec because of the malware protection."

More Morphisec pros

"Trellix Network Detection and Response has positively impacted my organization by addressing performance issues, specifically by offloading heavy traffic inspection and SSL inspection through sensors due to the limitations of the firewall."

"Before FireEye, most of the times that an incident would happen nobody would be able to find out where or why the incident occurred and that the system is compromised. FireEye is a better product because if the incident already happened I know that the breach is there and that the system is compromised so we can take appropriate action to prevent anything from happening."

"Because of what the FireEye product does, it has significantly decreased our meantime in being able to identify and detect malicious threats."

"If we are receiving spam emails, or other types of malicious email coming from a particular email ID, then we are able to block them using this solution."

"Trellix Network Detection and Response has positively impacted my organization by creating a better safeguard and protecting us from threats."

"The biggest impact Trellix Network Detection and Response has had on our organization is improved visibility across our environment and better confidence during investigations, as security analysts can understand suspicious behavior more clearly instead of depending solely on isolated alerts."

"The real-time alerts from Trellix Network Detection and Response reduced our average incident detection time from several hours to under thirty minutes, allowing the team to contain threats much faster."

"Application categorization is the most valuable feature for us. Application filtering is very interesting because other products don't give you full application filtering capabilities."

More Trellix Network Detection and Response pros

Cons

"We started in the Linux platform and we deployed to Linux. The licensing of that has been kind of confusing between Linux licensing and Windows licensing. The overall simplicity of licensing or offering an enterprise license to just cover everything and then we don't have to count needs improvement."

"We wanted to have multi-tenants in their cloud platform, so every entity can look into their own systems and not see other systems in other entities. I have a beta version on that now. I would like them to incorporate that in the cloud solution."

"It would be nice if they could integrate Morphisec with other traditional antivirus solutions beyond Microsoft Defender. That is probably my biggest gripe."

"The dashboard is the area that requires the most improvement. We have about, I would say 5,500 computers currently, and searching through all of those takes some time to filter. So as soon as you apply the filter, it takes a few seconds. It crunches, it thinks, and then it brings up the clients that match."

"The only problem is that their support lives in Israel, so the time zones are a bit off, but I've never had any complaint beyond that."

"Morphisec is a venture startup. They are still early in their growth stage. They need to get mature on their customer support and on how they interface with system tools."

"I haven't seen ROI because I haven't seen a threat that it has protected against, exactly."

"We sometimes have to depend on the support team to know what action we should take."

More Morphisec cons

"There is a lot of room for Improvement in the offering, from cost to functionality. It is pretty straightforward to implement which is an advantage. However, it falls short in pricing, detection capabilities, and, most importantly, reporting and policy management."

"The pricing is not reasonable. The user fee is not as high but the maintenance fee is expensive."

"Certain features in Trellix Network Detection and Response, such as using AL-type commands, may initially pose a challenge for those unfamiliar with such commands. However, once users become accustomed to the system, it becomes easier to use."

"The product is pricey. We'd like it to cost less. Not all customers can afford it."

"The customer service is not that good."

"We'd like the potential for better scaling."

"It is not a very secure product."

"The initial setup was complex because of the nature of our environment."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Morphisec is reasonably priced because our parent company's other subsidiaries use different products like CrowdStrike. CrowdStrike is four or five times more expensive than Morphisec. The competitive pricing saves us money in our overall security stack."

"Compared to their competitors, the price of Morphisec is not that high. You can easily deploy it on a large-scale or small-scale network."

"Our licensing is tied into our contract. Because we have a long-term contract, our pricing is a little bit lower. It is per year, so we don't get charged per endpoint, but we do have a cap. Our cap is 80 endpoints. If we were to go over 80, when we renewed our contract, which is not until three years are over. Then, they would reevaluate, and say, "Well, you have more than 80 devices active right now. This is going to be the price change." They know that we are installing and replacing computers, so the numbers will be all over the place depending on whether you archive or don't archive, which is the reason why we just have to keep up on that stuff."

"Price-wise, it's on the higher side. A traditional antivirus solution is cheaper, but in terms of security and manageability, its ROI is better than a traditional antivirus. I would recommend it to anybody evaluating or considering an antivirus solution. If your system gets compromised, the cost of ransom would be a lot more. This way, it saves a lot of cost."

"It is a little bit more expensive than other security products that we use, but it does provide us good protection. So, it is a trade-off."

"Licenses are per endpoint, and that's true for the cloud version as well. The only difference is that there is a little extra charge for the cloud version."

"We are still using a separate tool. I know for our 600 or I think we're actually licensed for up to 700 users, it runs me 23 or $24,000 a year. When you're talking to that many users plus servers being protected, that's well worth the investment for that dollar amount."

"It does not have multi-tenants. If South Africa wants to show only the machines that they have, they need their own cloud incidence. It is not possible to have that in a single cloud incidence with multiple tenants in it, instead you need to have multiple cloud incidences. Then, if you have that, it will be more expensive. However, they are going to change that, which is good."

More Morphisec pricing and cost advice

"The pricing is fair, a little expensive, but fair. We've evaluated other products, and they're similarly priced."

"The pricing is a little high."

"FireEye is comparable to other products, such as HX, but seems expensive. It may cause us to look at other products in the market."

"Its price is a bit high. A small customer cannot buy it. Its licensing is on a yearly basis."

"We're partners with Cisco so we get a reasonable price. It's cheaper than Palo Alto in terms of licensing."

"Pricing and licensing are reasonable compared to competitors."

"The user fee is not as high but the maintenance fee is expensive."

"When I compare this solution to its competitors in the market, I find that it is a little expensive."
