A stable and scalable hybrid solution with easy setup
The solution is scalable. It has three levels. You have the presentation area that can be escalated to the balance sheet. You have the back-end area that can be escalated using higher viability to configure more application servers. Also, the area of storage can be increased. We usually cater to enterprise solutions but have small- and medium-sized customers. It starts with 25 users and goes up to 100s and 1000s.

Advanced threat prevention has strengthened incident response and customized security workflows
The biggest advantage of Trellix Endpoint Security Platform is the ATP solution, which provides advanced threat prevention. Machine learning algorithms are available in the product as part of the threat anti-malware, including predictive machine learning and behavioral analysis, which are integral to the anti-malware module of EPP. In terms of my experience with the machine learning algorithms for analysis and threat detection, we are analyzing logs provided by Trellix, but we are not able to conduct specific machine learning analysis on those logs. The automated response mechanisms in the products help with incident management because we have to create playbooks in Trellix console for automation, which we need to enable. The customizable dashboard of Trellix Endpoint Security Platform definitely contributes to the decision-making process, as we customize the dashboard according to customer requirements. When it comes to integration aspects, we are able to integrate Trellix Endpoint Security Platform with SIEM or SOAR solutions using the ePO console, which enhances threat detection capabilities. Reporting and analytics aspects have an impact on security posture assessment, as we are able to fetch reports in the ePO console customized according to customer requirements for downloading and sending via email.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution has been quite good, and, overall, the features we need are available to us."
"The most important feature we've found is the Enscripts. That is one powerful feature that I, personally, love to use."
"Using Encase we are able to implement security and also Forensics."
"It is a very useful tool; it is worth buying irrespective of price."
"Data Recovery: Its ability to repair damaged partitions and uncover hidden partitions from within the tool, and allow further analysis."
"I like the processing feature on the product because it does everything at once, i.e, indexing, recovery, keyword searches, etc."
"Image creation and image analysis in one program, basically for ease of use."
"It speeds up the process, so I can meet my deadlines."
"My experience with McAfee is very good. They give excellent support, they are proactive to solve issues, and willing to integrate their products."
"The most valuable feature of Trellix Endpoint Security is its extensive customization capability, which allows me to create and deploy policies autonomously, suiting my individual needs."
"The most valuable features are the prevention layer that detects the signature value and prevents threats in the network."
"The most valuable feature of Trellix Endpoint Security is containment, which takes less than a minute."
"The most valuable features of the solution include DLP (data loss prevention), CASB (cloud access security broker) functionality, endpoint encryption, and cloud workload security."
"It is a really strong solution for endpoint security."
"The installation is pretty straightforward."
"It also allows multifunctionality within a single platform."
 

Cons

"I would like to see a capability to ingest and absorb more data. That would be really good. It currently is lacking this function."
"I suggest that if the mobile phone acquisition is embedded in the Encase law enforcement version, it would be very useful."
"Ease of use and learning curve need improvement."
"In the past, incident response time for tech support was slow."
"There were minor UI bugs."
"This is not the program I would suggest for a newbie using to learn. It is just too expensive for the full experience, and the student versions, while very good, are just for that, students."
"​Sometimes the application can take more time to complete the image processing or fail at the end of the process.​"
"I would like to see a capability to ingest and absorb more data. That would be really good. It currently is lacking this function."
"The endpoint has room for improvement because it's restrictive, it's very sensitive. Sometimes it can delete something that you need and so sometimes you have to disable the antivirus."
"The solution lacks device control."
"Because sometimes it makes machines really slow."
"Currently, Trellix Endpoint Security can't find the running mutexes, while other open-source products can do it."
"The initial setup can be a bit complicated for those unfamiliar with the product."
"Tech support is not as helpful as they were in the past."
"Some agents become old and then they don't communicate well any longer."
"The price of the solution is high in Asia."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"EnCase is an affordable solution."
"We have a license. And, we found the cost high. We contacted them and talked to them about the ratio of the US dollar versus the Indian rupee and then we came to a solution."

"The tool is affordable"
"Licensing is paid yearly."
"It provides good value by striking a balance between cost-effectiveness and feature richness."
"The license costs are very reasonable, around 1,000 to 1,200 rupees per year."
