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

"It is a good product to implement, especially where the existing technology fails to detect zero day attacks."
"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."
"There are sandbox capabilities; you can submit malicious files and get great feedback, including if there is malware and what it is doing, and it can give you simulations in different operating systems and applications to provide real insights from the perspective of a real environment."
"Trellix Network Detection and Response helps increase response to attacks. One benefit is increased visibility and simplicity in maintaining it. AI analyzes and relates data based on past performance over the last five days."
"The features that I find most valuable are the MIR (Mandiant Incident Response) for checks on our inbound security."
"After all of our testing was conducted we felt confident that this was the right approach to safeguard the bank from advanced malware, zero-day and targeted attacks."
"It allows us to be more hands off in checking on emails and networking traffic, as we can set up a bunch of different alerts and have it alert us, giving us a better view of our network and our email environment."
"The scalability has not been a problem. We have deployed the product in very high bandwidth networks. We have never had a problem with the FireEye product causing latency issues within our networks."
"IP tracing is the most valuable feature."
 

Cons

"It is very expensive, the price could be better."
"The customer service is not that good."
"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."
"The one thing that needs to improve is that they use guidance or FDK for max data."
"I heard that FireEye recently was hacked, and a lot of things were revealed."
"The initial setup was complex because of the nature of our environment. When it comes to the type of applications and functions which we were looking at in terms of identifying malicious threats, there would be some level of complexity, if we were doing it right."
"Trellix Network Detection and Response is a powerful tool with areas that need improvement, such as dashboard customization options and reporting flexibility."
"Trellix Network Detection and Response is stable but occasionally encounters performance issues, which we can fix quickly."
"The technical support needs improvement."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is fair, a little expensive, but fair. We've evaluated other products, and they're similarly priced."
"It's an expensive solution."
"The user fee is not as high but the maintenance fee is expensive."
"Pricing and licensing are reasonable compared to competitors."
"We're partners with Cisco so we get a reasonable price. It's cheaper than Palo Alto in terms of licensing."
"Its price is a bit high. A small customer cannot buy it. Its licensing is on a yearly basis."
"When I compare this solution to its competitors in the market, I find that it is a little expensive."
"The tool is a bit pricey."
"The solution is overly priced."
