Has improved the organization's PCI compliance with data loss prevention

I use the solution on a Macintosh computer and it has issues and does not work when I try to log in from the Safari Browser, but it works fine when I log in from the Google Chrome browser. The console has issues when the login is done through a Safari Browser. The console has to be more competitive and the compatibility of the browser needs to be better. I want to know about Skyhigh's competitiveness with other brands and about the vulnerability assessment and micro segmentations. I know Skyhigh has other products, but right now, I am studying what this new product is about. They only have English support, so I would like for them to add some Spanish support.

Distributors highly benefit from advanced data monitoring and seamless integration features

The Machine Learning capability could be improved, particularly in data discovery. When given sensitive data expressions, the system retrieves files that are not always related. The system should adhere strictly to the given expression rather than just focusing on keywords within the expression. In endpoint features, while the detection rate is good, there could be improvements in remediation and rollback solutions during attacks. Other solutions now include such options since providing 100% security is impossible. The flexibility varies across environments. Enterprise customers find the product performs well without affecting their data, with scans running as scheduled. However, SMB customers experience some performance issues during scanning. Since EDR is integrated, users must access the EDR console to check endpoint detections. It would be beneficial if this functionality were incorporated within the EPO console, as the current threat graphs link doesn't display endpoint threat graphs.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Skyhigh has given us categorization and rating of websites separate from what the web proxy places on the logs."

"Shadow IT reporting capabilities."

"I like the encrypted disk feature and the endpoint protection."

"The solution performs well."

"There is [a feature] called cloud registry where we can see a risk assessment for the cloud services being used. If we want to add a new cloud service or a new cloud application, we can check into it and do an assessment through the cloud registry."

"I found the solution to be stable."

"The solution provides great security, higher availability, and policy granularity."

"It's a great product with solid features."

More Skyhigh Security pros

"The most effective aspect of Trellix DLP is that it does what it's supposed to do. It is fairly simple to use compared to Proofpoint."

"Trellix DLP helps handle false positives, but it depends on your configuration. It is quite overwhelming in terms of its dashboard."

"It prevents enterprises from installing external software and devices and can block specific network pathways."

"The solution is stable and does not have glitching issues."

"The support from both the vendor and Trellix is excellent."

"The tool has prebuilt templates for data classification. It is easier for customers to get started."

"Scalability is feasible since it's on-premises. It's easy to scale there."

"I rate the product an eight out of ten."

More Trellix DLP pros

Cons

"It needs to be more user-friendly, as it is a little bit complicated to use."

"Its initial setup could be more straightforward."

"Skyhigh Security, as a product, is excellent, but in terms of the right services and support, those are lagging very much, for example, in Trellix. From one hundred, its score has gone down to ten, so ten out of one hundred, otherwise, it's the number one product."

"The encrypted disk implementation could be improved. I currently use it from a dongle or USB key with two-factor authentication to access my computer."

"The services take some time to load. It would be helpful if the loading time was reduced."

"Though the Skyhigh Dashboard is processing large amounts of data, the speed of the Dashboard could be improved."

"You can integrate Skyhigh's rules with Active Directory groups. For example, you can allow access to a specific website for a defined set of users. I can do that, but the rules are not straightforward. It can look up the group in Active Directory. However, it doesn't always find the proper group name. The rule configuration should be simpler and more granular. The admin should be able to map 80 groups in the rules quickly."

"I think that the User Interface could be improved."

More Skyhigh Security cons

"The main challenge we face is with our on-premises Trellix DLP implementation. While we can push the agent, we cannot apply the policy on Azure systems."

"The whole UI of the server console installed on the standalone computers is hefty."

"In future releases, I would like to see like to see encryption available on the cloud-based version."

"Having someone within a region who understands the countries and how they approach data and information security is sometimes where the problem lies."

"Trellix needs to improve customer support."

"It's not very user-friendly for a beginner, so it would be easier if the platform or console were manageable or user-friendly. The dashboard could be simplified."

"Trellix DLP can improve by addressing the lack of features such as deep drive DLP and email notifications present in other solutions like Forcepoint."

"When cases are raised, partners perform initial L1 or L2 troubleshooting. However, ticket resolution times are often too long, with new engineers sometimes requesting the same logs repeatedly."

More Trellix DLP cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"They definitely charge a huge amount. All the security service providers charge a huge amount."

"The price of the solution is good and we pay an annual license."

"Commercially, I find Skyhigh Security a little costlier, compared to other products such as SentinelOne or Cybereason which are really novelty products. I'm not comparing Skyhigh Security with Trend Micro, but with other products, in particular the new, next-generation products. The price for Skyhigh Security is high in terms of value and ROI. I would rate the product price combined with product efficacy a six out of ten."

"Some of our clients have a perpetual license and pay additional support yearly."

"Pricing for Skyhigh Security is fine."

"The licensing fees are based on what environments you are monitoring."

"This is an expensive product, although it is made for larger enterprises and not for small organizations."

"This is an expensive product, but you have to compare that with other solutions that are on the market."

More Skyhigh Security pricing and cost advice

"The pricing depends on the number of users in a company."
