Good reporting and analysis that alerts with abnormal behavior, but the dashboard could be simplified
This solution is scalable and it's based on licenses. It can be scaled at any time. Initially, you are starting with 50 to 100 users. After testing, you advance to several users who can do the reporting and analysis. In our company, we have approximately 200 users. This solution is being used extensively, it's always running.
Roshan Jadhav - PeerSpot reviewer
Technical Consultant at Vincacyber
Has improved threat detection and streamlined incident analysis through centralized control and AI-driven insights
People are looking for Cynet because it has next-generation threat protection that detects zero-day threats. It has UEBA (user entity behavior analysis), threat hunting features, and storage device control where we can create profiles and block unauthorized USB storage devices. We can also create threat protection policies to detect malware, ransomware, and many other threats. The most valuable feature is the UBA (User behavior analysis). It has integration with SIEM solutions, allowing us to share our logs to third-party SIEM servers. Cynet has AI integration which showcases complete forensic data about threats, making it very easy to understand what happened with the system and what type of incident was detected. Autonomous breach protection is a feature of Cynet which can detect and mitigate known and unknown threats based on signatures. If there are any signature-less files, malware, or ransomware, it will detect them based on autonomous breach protection capabilities. The centralized management console provides a dashboard where we can see four types of attack vectors and incident counts in real-time. It continuously scans the radar and shows open alerts related to files, hosts, users, or networks. We can easily export these alerts and send reports via email.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Roaming feature, application control and firewall features."
"I haven't heard of any issues with stability."
"The most valuable feature is the end-user monitoring. If there is any abnormal behavior on the machine, the administrator will be alerted."
"We are protecting all our workstations."
"This solution requires less management and is very easy to use."
"Its ability to revert back from a previous state is quite notable. This feature is particularly valuable because, for maintaining integrity, it can inspect the socket for any firewall modifications. In practice, it allows us to return to a previous configuration when everything was functioning correctly."
"It is quite stable. I would rate the stability of the solution a nine out of ten."
"I like that you can implement it in the managed service portfolio."
"The EDR, as well as the XDR features, are very valuable."
"I like the Cynet Correlator™ feature."
"As a reseller, I believe the best functions in Cynet's product are the lightweight agent and good detection performance."
 

Cons

"The packet analyzer needs improvement."
"Technical support is a little slow."
"I would like to see improvements made to the dashboard, where you can get the information with a simple click."
"Their support for issues related to the portal or feature problems isn't great."
"Compliance reports need to improve."
"There are some shortcomings in Cynet's integration capabilities that need improvement."
"Could have better integration with other security applications."
"Cynet is capable and cloud-based, however, enterprise organizations often prefer on-premises servers for managing entire organizations."
"SIEM - Although with their Centralised Log Management Cynet has created the basis for SIEM functionality, this is to be expanded in the near future."
"They have automated response capability, and they're moving more and more into SOAR capability. They have built-in deception technology with host-file users, phantoms, etc. We used to call them honeypots. So, they're on target. They're doing a really good job, and they should continue to improve with SOAR."
"Its dashboard is not so good. On the dashboard, they don't show the count for client endpoints, which is a failure of this product. This count should be shown on the dashboard. I have 1,000 clients, but I can't see it anywhere on the dashboard."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The license is based on the number of users. The evaluation license is free, you can download it from the website and try it out first."
"We purchase the product’s yearly license."
"Everything is included in this one solution and the pricing is pretty competitive."
"The pricing was good."
"It gives you a high level of protection at a very good price."
"Its licensing is on a monthly basis."
"My company's customers have to make yearly payments towards the licensing costs of the solution. Cynet is not expensive."
"It is extremely affordable. I'll give it a five out of five in terms of price. It was half the cost of the next closest competitor, and the competitor didn't provide SOC services."
"It costs 18,000 per year, but we have the whole package with not only Cynet but also the Perception Point for emails. There are also some small security courses for our users."
