What do I think about the stability of the solution?

This is a stable solution. There are no bugs or glitches. It doesn't crash or freeze. 

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

The solution is scalable. You can expand usage as needed. You just need to buy more licenses.

Complete solution with beneficial threat management
Pros and Cons
  • "Trend Micro Deep Security is a complete solution and all the threat management has been taken care of."
  • "The price of Trend Micro Deep Security could be less expensive."

What is most valuable?

Trend Micro Deep Security is a complete solution and all the threat management has been taken care of.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using Trend Micro Deep Security for two years.

How are customer service and support?

I have not used technical support.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

The price of Trend Micro Deep Security could be less expensive.

What other advice do I have?

My advice to others is they can use Trend Micro Deep Security for their server-side instead of choosing Azure Firewall or AWS Firewall, which is a lot costlier when compared with the others. All threat management is taken care of, such as DDoS protection, and ransomware attacks.

I rate Trend Micro Deep Security an eight out of ten.

Provides a view of what's happening and enhances security, but we should be able to have an automated response for some of the threats
Pros and Cons
  • "In addition to providing our clients a view of what's happening in their data centers, it also does virtual patching in the data center. It enhances the security in the data center big time."
  • "What this product lacks at this stage is the ability to have automated workbooks to do the response. At this stage, the response is more manual, and it is not automated. If there is a response functionality in Deep Security, similar to what we have in EDR these days, to automatically respond to some of the threats, it would be cool. So, we'd like to have an automated response. There should be a response functionality."
  • "What this product lacks at this stage is the ability to have automated workbooks to do the response."

What is our primary use case?

It gives clients an additional view of what's happening in their data centers.

Deep Security is on-prem at this stage, but it has got cloud workload protection that has similar functionality in the cloud.

What is most valuable?

In addition to providing our clients a view of what's happening in their data centers, it also does virtual patching in the data center. It enhances the security in the data center big time.

What needs improvement?

What this product lacks at this stage is the ability to have automated workbooks to do the response. At this stage, the response is more manual, and it is not automated. If there is a response functionality in Deep Security, similar to what we have in EDR these days, to automatically respond to some of the threats, it would be cool. So, we'd like to have an automated response. There should be a response functionality.

For how long have I used the solution?

We have been providing this solution for a few years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

It is stable.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

It is scalable, but it is fairly expensive.

In terms of its usage, we're not using it internally. We have three clients at the moment. They are fairly big clients.

How are customer service and support?

Their technical support is good.

How was the initial setup?

It is a bit more difficult because it needs a bit of hardware, etc. Deep Security is more complex to set up than web security. Implementing Deep Security properly is usually about a week's worth of work because of the change control in the company. It is the change control that's an issue.

In terms of people required for its deployment, one engineer is usually enough.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

Most of it is annual at this stage.

What other advice do I have?

I would definitely recommend it for medium enterprises. 

I would rate it a seven out of ten.

Good for managing a few servers but it requires a lot of manual configuration after deployment
Pros and Cons
  • "Deep Security is a good product for managing a few servers."
  • "Post-implementation is time-consuming. You have to do monitoring, and that takes time. After you set up everything, it's not a full-fledged implementation. You have to keep on monitoring and configuring."

What is our primary use case?

Deep Security is a server protection product. We use it for virtual patching and file integration. You can use this with your cloud or an NX environment, virtual services, VMware, etc. 

What is most valuable?

Deep Security is a good product for managing a few servers.

For how long have I used the solution?

I've been using Deep Security for more than five years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

Performance is fine. You need to keep an eye on the new files getting detected, or so you have to keep on applying those file folders. So you have to keep monitoring, or else it is not going to help. So especially for the file integrity model and all. 

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

I don't know about the scalability, but it's good for few servers where you can manage. 

How are customer service and support?

There is a local Trend Micro team in Mumbai that we call for support or to log a ticket.

How was the initial setup?

Deployment and post-deployment implementation are a little complicated. We can't touch servers, and we can't modify the settings. It should be automated, and Trend Micro should make the process more intelligent. The scope is broad, and you have to manually monitor the file scans and respond whenever there is a detection. 

The deployment itself is not that difficult because it's client based. So you want to install clients on each of those servers, and then you have to keep monitoring and adding features. You check the server's performance, and if everything is fine, you can keep adding servers. But post-implementation is time-consuming. You have to do monitoring, and that takes time. After you set up everything, it's not a full-fledged implementation. You have to keep on monitoring and configuring. 

And there are times when the malware protection or some other virtual patching is working fine, but you need a technician to get all the more advanced features to work. It takes around two or three technicians to implement. Our team is responsible for security while a different team handles server management. Then there are one or two people who manage the security console. And then, there are OEM support and SI support.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

We have a subscription. It's not a surface subscription. It's only the AMC part.

What other advice do I have?

I rate Trend Micro Deep Security six out of 10. I would recommend it. It depends on the other security controls you have in place. If you're using the entire Trend Micro suite, then you have a PT web gateway. So if you have the whole suite, you have tight integration with your APT and firewall story. In that case, Trend Micro Control Manager is there. So you have everything tied to a single console, so security and everything play as a complete story.

Cloud-based, great for patch management, saves time, and can be installed remotely
Pros and Cons
  • "Patch management is most valuable. The major selling point of Deep Security is that it is based on the cloud. Deep Security is for the servers and databases of data centers, and generally, for patch management, you have to shut down the machines, and then you have to restart them. So, they need shutdown time, which is a cost. Big enterprises don't want to shut down their database or their data center for any kind of patch. Deep Security creates a wall and downloads all patches. You install it on the cloud. So, it saves your server from any kind of intrusion or any kind of penetration, and whenever you get a chance or time, in six, eight, or nine months, you can physically download or install all those patches in one go. So, it saves you time. It also saves your shutdown time and keeps your data center safe."
  • "Patch management is most valuable. The major selling point of Deep Security is that it is based on the cloud."
  • "It should have XDR and EDR integration. It would be nice if they can tie it up with an XDR or EDR."
  • "It is a very expensive solution, so it has mostly been used at an enterprise level."

What is most valuable?

So, it saves you time. It also saves your shutdown time and keeps your data center safe.

Along with patching, they also provide antivirus protection on the servers.

What needs improvement?

It should have XDR and EDR integration. It would be nice if they can tie it up with an XDR or EDR.

Its price is also quite high. It is more expensive than other products for patching. So, it would be nice if they lower its price.

For how long have I used the solution?

We have been providing this solution for about two to three years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

It is very stable. That's why it is doing so well. They have already captured 90% of the financial market in our country.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

I won't say that it is scalable. It is the final product, but it has a few add-ons. You can add other products of Trend Micro, for example, XDR or EDR, along with DDI, but you can't scale Deep Security to another level. It is the final product.

It is a very expensive solution, so it has mostly been used at an enterprise level. Around 90% of the customers belong to the financial sector, and around 95% of banks in Pakistan are using it.

How are customer service and technical support?

They have a pretty good support system. The best part is that they have their support team on the ground in Pakistan. They also have a support team back at their headquarters. Along with that, they have built a support team at the distributor level. They have also trained the partners. So, support is quite good and efficient.

How was the initial setup?

Its installation is pretty easy. You can do the installation remotely because it is on the cloud, so you have access from anywhere.

Installation duration depends on how many servers you have, but it normally takes about four to five days. It is not just the installation. After installing it, you also have to do testing and other stuff.

What about the implementation team?

You do need certified engineers for it.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

It is a very expensive solution. It would be nice if they lower its price.

Its license is based on the machines.

What other advice do I have?

I recommend Deep Security to almost all of my customers. It is a very good product. I would rate Deep Security a nine out of 10.

How was the initial setup?

The initial setup was easy.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

Trend Micro Deep Security pricing is on the high side.

We are paying approximately $50,000 each month, it's definitely expensive.
