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.

Experience with offsite backup enhances data integrity and reduces on-premise reliance
One of the features of Veritas Alta SaaS Protection that customers are looking for is immutability. This is the most important feature. With the cloud, Veritas Alta SaaS Protection is actually in the cloud, which means they have unlimited space to do their backups. They can expand on a need-to-need basis. The automated recovery feature of Veritas Alta SaaS Protection makes the recovery much easier, as opposed to earlier methods where we were using scripts to do the restore. Currently, it's automated so you just do a click. You select the feature in a graphical interface, making it easy to use even for a newbie.

Quotes from Members

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

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."
"We see ROI in the sense that we don't have to react because it stops anything from hurting the network. We can stop it before we have a bigger mess to clean up."
"After deploying Trellix Network Detection and Response, we saw a noticeable improvement in our security operations, as threat detection and incident times were reduced by 40 to 50 percent, the security team spent significantly less time manually analyzing network traffic, and we were able to identify suspicious activity that previously went unnoticed, leading to faster containment of potential incidents and improved overall response efficiency."
"FireEye has created an ecosystem of products integrated with their own SIEM, which is cloud-based and integrates with network security, email security, host security and the like."
"The most valuable feature of the solution stems from how it allows users to do the investigation part. Another important part of the product that is valuable is associated with how it gives information to users in the form of a storyline."
"The best features that Trellix Network Detection and Response offers are visibility, threat detection, and immediate response, which allows us to take action almost instantly while keeping proof through proper data capture and maintaining logs for future analysis to prevent attacks and ensure that we have the right policies and controls."
"We have seen several positive impacts since implementing Trellix Network Detection and Response, particularly in the areas of threat detection, intelligence, response, and operational efficiency."
"Trellix Network Detection and Response has positively impacted my organization by creating a better safeguard and protecting us from threats."
"Some of the tool's best features include an enhanced dashboard and strong security features compared to native Veritas. Our environment is entirely automated."
"The automated recovery feature of Veritas Alta SaaS Protection makes the recovery much easier, as opposed to earlier methods where we were using scripts to do the restore."
"The solution is quite stable, and we haven't had any problems over the past five years of use."
"We're comfortable using this kind of technology. It's user-friendly."
"It's very comprehensive. It's one of the first brands to appear in its field."
"The solution is stable; I haven't experienced any bugs or glitches on it."
"he most valuable feature is that it's not so intrusive with computer resources."
"I would recommend anybody to buy this solution and use it."
 

Cons

"It would be great if we could create granular reports based on the protocols, types of attacks, regions of attack, etc. Also we would like to easily be able to add exceptions to rules in cases of false positives."
"Cybersecurity posture has room for improvement."
"Trellix Network Detection and Response is a powerful tool with areas that need improvement, such as dashboard customization options and reporting flexibility."
"It doesn't connect with the cloud, advanced machine learning is not there. A known threat can be coming into the network and we would want the cloud to look up the problem. I would also like to see them develop more file replication and machine learning."
"The analytics could be better. It seems heavily influenced by the McAfee and FireEye integration, and that integration still isn't seamless."
"The problem with FireEye is that they don't allow VM or sandbox customization. The user doesn't have control of the VMs that are inside the box. It comes from the vendor as-is. Some users like to have control of it. Like what type of Windows and what type of applications and they have zero control over this."
"It would be a good idea if we could get an option to block based upon the content of an email, or the content of a file attachment."
"Customer service and technical support could use some enhancement. On a scale from 1 to 10, it is between six and seven."
"The program is quite expensive and I am not impressed by their technical support."
"The usability of the solution isn't the best."
"Licensing has been a struggle. It went from bronze, silver to gold. Licensing needs more sophistication. It has features that are sold as separate add-ons."
"The backup reports and the dashboard need improvement."
"Other people will prefer this solution because they're used to it. However, from my point of view, you have more breaks, more failures on it than you will with Commvault."
"The solution does lack a lot of features, and we're considering switching."
"The implementation could be improved. The server setup is very easy, but some specific client implementation, for example, Oracle or SQL servers, are a little bit complicated. they should offer a bit more assistance with the setup for these particular items."
"The go-between is a Veritas partner, so the customer support was not that good. The solution is fine except when there is a purchasing crisis where you have to remake the ecosystem. It causes a lot of issues. The support was a problem, but we're okay with it as long as we have someone to communicate with."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"When you purchase FireEye Network Security NX, will need to purchase a megabit per second package. You must know your needs from day one."
"The pricing is fair, a little expensive, but fair. We've evaluated other products, and they're similarly priced."
"The user fee is not as high but the maintenance fee is expensive."
"Because of what the FireEye product does, it has significantly decreased our mean time in being able to identify and detect malicious threats. The company that I work with is a very mature organization, and we have seen the meantime to analysis decrease by at least tenfold."
"It's an expensive solution."
"We're partners with Cisco so we get a reasonable price. It's cheaper than Palo Alto in terms of licensing."
"When I compare this solution to its competitors in the market, I find that it is a little expensive."
"There are some additional services that I understand the vendor provides, but our approach was to package all of the features that we were looking to use into the product."
"This solution is not cheap and not expensive but priced in the mid-range."
"The tool is expensive compared to Veeam."
"The program is quite expensive."
"SaaS Backup isn't the most expensive solution."
"I would rate this solution's pricing as five out of five."
