AI triage has streamlined real-time alert monitoring and has improved on-call incident response
The best features Panther offers are AI Triage, the ability to comment on our activities, and seamless integration with other communication sources such as PagerDuty, Microsoft Teams, and potentially Slack, showcasing the flexibility we have in using this tool. The most valuable feature for my team is definitely AI Triage, which helps save a lot of time by eliminating the need for manual research regarding patterns that may be repeated, making our work easier and more efficient. Panther has positively impacted my organization as it serves as one of the main sources for triaging real-time incidents. Panther definitely plays a key role in the work that we do. Specific outcomes that show how Panther has helped our organization include saving a lot of time, especially since the AI Triage feature reduces the necessity to reach out to others for clarity, which it occasionally accomplishes on its own. To be honest, it does lack some aspects. For example, if it could access our organizational knowledge, including the Jira database, it might better analyze incidents and determine whether they are false positives or not by using more contextual data.

Cloud backups have secured critical data and have enabled fast recovery from ransomware threats
I do utilize the automated policy-driven operations with Veritas Alta Data Protection. They have helped in reducing manual workloads because manual intervention is required to handle errors or backup job failures when trying to back up a particular AWS account where critical resources are deployed. Discovery takes a lot of time because we are backing up data already in the S3 buckets. We often face challenges with resource discovery because discovery does not happen once a month; it happens daily. Every day, the discovery job runs before backing up resources. We may encounter issues in discovery or related to permissions, meaning if we have backup permissions on a bucket but further intensive permissions are present on any particular file, the Veritas Alta Data Protection job will skip that file. At times, backup fails with one or another error, and manual intervention is definitely needed. It is predominantly automated and policy-driven, but manual intervention is also required sometimes. We tested the effectiveness of Veritas Alta Data Protection's granular restoration feature during POC because we had a requirement to test various scenarios like restoring the bucket in a particular region, restoring the bucket in a different region, restoring EC2 instances, restoring containers, and databases. One more crucial feature for us in selecting Veritas Alta Data Protection is having replication between Veritas Alta Data Protection clusters. Once the primary backup job is complete, Veritas Alta Data Protection runs an SLP job, which is a storage lifecycle policy. This SLP job moves or replicates the data from one Veritas Alta Data Protection cluster to another. If the Veritas Alta Data Protection cluster goes down, the data is still replicated to the other Veritas Alta Data Protection cluster.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We have seen a return on investment measured primarily through SOC efficiency and productivity improvements, with teams observing a twenty to thirty-five percent improvement in investigation efficiency depending on the environment and product maturity."
"The AI Triage feature saves a considerable amount of time, and if it were to incorporate organizational knowledge, it could provide finer-tuned results."
"I find Panther's detection capabilities and integrations to be highly valuable."
"In the last two years, we faced issues with ransomware, but because of the encryption level which we set with this backup software, we were able to restore all of our data without losing a single file."
"The solution is very easy to use."
"All latest technologies have been incorporated in Veritas Alta Data Protection."
"Regarding cost-effectiveness and return on investment, we have seen benefits in the form of saving time and resources."
"It is rather easy to replicate data across your cloud environment using this solution once you've done it a few times."
"Veritas Alta Data Protection is an industry leader, and I am quite impressed by the leadership that they have in this segment."
"The ransomware protection feature and anomaly detection are the most valuable, and the ability to integrate new cloud workloads is also valuable."
 

Cons

"The solution could be improved by providing more built-in integrations, which would reduce the need for me to build them myself."
"Regarding Panther's accuracy and reliability of output, I would rate it at 70 percent since, at times, it identifies findings as valid when they may actually be false positives, which we have experienced in a few cases."
"The IVR system should be reduced so that customers can reach support directly, as when someone calls, it is typically for a critical technical issue and the call should connect directly to a representative."
"Maybe a year and a half ago, during a backup, I had an updating issue with Java."
"NetBackup should be made more user-friendly, and a video tutorial should be created to help new users understand how to configure and use the solution properly."
"I hope we will be able to use Veritas Alta Data Protection in a very user-friendly manner, which is what I am expecting from Veritas features."
"The compression rate on the Flex Appliance of Veritas Alta Data Protection needs to be improved."
"It would be nice if reporting was a bit easier."
"Since Veritas Alta Data Protection recently entered the market, it does have limited technical resources for support."
