Cloud security has improved remote access and has reduced costs for smaller client sites
I have used Cloudflare One's Identity-Aware Proxy, and it is quite straightforward from what I have seen so far. The app registration on the Azure side integrates fully into Cloudflare, and I am very satisfied with that part because it is easy to set up. The integration of Cloudflare One's Secure Web Gateway and Zero Trust Network Access works without any issues. That part is pretty automatic, and if you complete the rest of the setup, it comes together by itself with no issues from my side. What makes it nice is that we can actually start replacing on-site firewalls at this stage for the smaller clients because it does not matter if they go to a coffee shop or work from home; they are still secured by the same connection. The hops get shorter and you get better latency. We have done testing to see if it is better. One thing that we did notice with our proof of concept with our current client is that they have people connecting from the UK. When they used their previous VPN solution, uploading CAD drawings and other files to the server took a long time. They mentioned that it is much quicker on Cloudflare One's solution. I definitely believe that is part of the improved performance, and I am satisfied with that as well. What is nice about Cloudflare One is that it makes the setup easier and also easier to train technicians to maintain it. Compared to legacy systems, we do not need to get fancy firewalls in place that are costly. That is definitely also a cost-saver with Cloudflare One.

Email protection has stopped phishing and secured cloud collaboration across all devices
Deployment is very easy since it is API based and does not require any harsh configuration. The DMARC management and DMARC forensic is the best feature. Their security engine provides everything such as DLP and encryption. Check Point Harmony Email & Collaboration provides almost 100% security for phishing emails. Their DMARC management is very standard compared with any other brand or any other email security provider. The best thing is that on a single tenant I can manage multiple services such as Harmony Endpoint, Check Point Harmony Email & Collaboration, Harmony Browser, mobile security, EDR, XDR, which is endpoint security, and SaaS. All of these services have a single dashboard. When giving security to email, in Check Point Harmony Email & Collaboration, I do not need to change any MX record or any DNS entry changes. I simply add one text record for DMARC and no changes are needed in the MX record of that particular domain. This is very easy because Check Point Harmony Email & Collaboration is in the tenant of Microsoft Office 365 and Google Workspace only. Check Point works on zero trust network technology. They are not only giving a feature of artificial intelligence but also machine learning summary. Machine learning summary is also given when they catch any kind of incidents such as phishing attacks, malware attacks, and ransomware attacks. They always provide real-time alerts for that. Real-time URL analysis is provided for phishing links and all these things. It gives 100% output for that and shows the source from where the malicious URL comes from. Additionally, they always provide threat emulation. This means the simulation of what danger happens when I click that particular URL is also provided in their report. It gives 100% protection to all BYOD devices. For example, one single Microsoft 365 account can be configured on different five devices. Many companies give email access to their employees on their mobile as well. In that case, if any malicious file is on the mobile and the employee would like to save it on OneDrive, due to this security, the user and administrator will get a real-time alert that this file is malicious and cannot be uploaded to OneDrive. This not only saves money but also saves time and prevents the organization from such cyber attacks.

Real-time threat response has boosted detection accuracy and reduces manual investigation work
I have had challenges in the past with Trellix Collaboration Security for implementation because of issues related to compatibility. Since we worked in a global company with different operating systems, it was necessary to create different plans and different actions to implement the product.One thing I really do not prefer in Trellix Collaboration Security is not related to the console. I am a McAfee fan since the McAfee tool, and I find the console of Trellix Collaboration Security to be very user-friendly and easy to use. However, I do not know if it is related to the architecture of the product. Of course, we have modern threats based on behaviors and zero days. We have today CrowdStrike and SentinelOne, where we have better results based on threats and behavior, where it is possible to create a simulation environment based on the file detected and based on it, confirm if it really is malicious or not. In general, I believe Trellix Collaboration Security improved the console based on the last console of McAfee, but I think it is possible to improve more. It really is a good product, but in my view, it needs to improve detection based on behaviors. Regarding automations, I have implemented Trellix Collaboration Security here at Johnson & Johnson, and I implemented it in the same situation at Santander Bank and BNP Paribas Bank, where I created automations to export data for different metrics, including malicious detections, compliance, baselines, scans, last scans based on the seven days, and checking of patterns. I export everything to CSV files. Based on that, I create Power BI dashboards, and in these Power BI dashboards, I have a more executive view for different metrics to provide to myself, my manager, or director to create an executive view based on it. Another important point we use here at Johnson & Johnson and other companies is a data hub or a SIEM solution, such as Elastic or ArcSight, where we select some logs to be sent and use it to build reports and metrics.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The capabilities of the software are strong enough for me to do what it's supposed to do. For me, we don't need to do a lot of configuration on our site. We just enable it and monitor it."
"Using Cloudflare One makes my work quite easy because for DDoS protection, all I need to do is understand the OSI model and click; it makes it easier than trying to write a command line or use a Linux command."
"It's the endpoint exposition. We don't need to expose our VPN server to the internet and need a zero-test solution. I can apply some conditional access to the endpoint that's connecting to our network to check their security policies or the security condition of their workstation. Once the workstation is trying to connect to my internal network, then I would like to check the discrete condition of these endpoints that are trying to access my internal network. We created some conditional access. We have CrowdStrike, to check if the CrowdStrike is installed, to check if it's updated, and to check for Windows updates. We created some conditional policies to check it."
"I'm very satisfied with the environment and the dashboard."
"The simplicity of the solution is its valuable features as almost no effort was needed to learn the configurations. It is also one of the cheapest firewalls available in this category."
"Cloudflare DDoS is better than its competitors for its security, deployment, and scalability."
"Cloudflare DDoS mitigates DDoS attacks."
"The tool also offers good scalability, and the dashboard, along with real-time analytics, is very good."
"In terms of technical features, this is the best solution that I have worked with so far."
"Check Point's technical support is very good."
"The initial setup is easy."
"The email security solution boasts an exceptional success rate in filtering out junk, spam, and phishing emails while ensuring that legitimate emails reach their intended recipients. The setup process is straightforward and user-friendly"
"I recommend Check Point Harmony Email and Collaboration to all types of companies, from small businesses to enterprises."
"The product is reliable and sturdy."
"This DLP is very useful, as it gives our users additional protection."
"We have managed to have an impressive reduction in phishing that used to enter our system before applying Check Point."
"Trellix Collaboration Security is valued for being a stable and comprehensive solution that fulfills customer needs."
"One of the valuable features of the product stems from the fact that it is easy to implement the tool in our environment."
"The auto-remediation feature is valuable."
"The product protects my email."
"The product helps reduce the number of malicious emails reaching the user's inbox."
"I'd recommend the product due to the fact that it can stop most of the phishing and malicious items from getting through our email."
"FireEye is good for malware depicting and security."
"I rely on Trellix Collaboration Security because the sensors are highly reliable and high-performance sensors that can handle traffic efficiently."
 

Cons

"There are premium tier live service and lower tier live service, so we opted for the lower tier. But there is no medium tier where we pay a little extra and get a bit more service. So if that can be improved."
"Our customers no longer use Cloudflare because its service is subpar."
"I would like them to include a VPN feature to provide a secure connection to the data center."
"They don't have a person to provide support for customers using the solution under their free plan."
"Cloudflare One is not very powerful, but for what we require, it is basic and sufficient."
"The free plan has limitations. For example, I can only set up three rules, and the application firewall is unavailable."
"The response time for support must be reduced."
"Cloudflare Zero Trust Platform needs to improve its documentation. It took time to do the implementation."
"The implementation could definitely be better. We had great support from Check Point, but there were some "got-you" moments where we got surprises as we were setting it up."
"They could improve Check Point support response times. Sometimes it takes days to resolve or even days to get a first response."
"For tech people who want to dive deep into self-servicing capabilities, Check Point could improve in this area."
"The dashboard is the major area for improvement, but apart from that, all the rest is acceptable."
"The NAVEX metrics that I have been using on the CloudGuard dashboard cannot be exported. If they were to add report exporting capabilities on each of metric objects on the dashboard, that would be awesome."
"The integration with Gsuite could be improved, especially when reporting the amount of emails it manages to filter."
"They could continue to offer more stringent security policy measures for threat point management."
"Some files are not scanned thoroughly due to occasional network failures."
"FireEye needs single sign-on. They say it's on their roadmap. They should also implement support for Microsoft Authenticator app for 2FA."
"In general, our company should make the tool more robust to protect our systems."
"The solution needs better support."
"If they want to be the primary or best solution, they need to have better email management features."
"The solution is not easy to set up. However, we have employees that have the knowledge that can do the difficult implementation. It would be better if the process was easier."
"The cloud product is not open to the customers. If the system itself could be more open to the customer, I'd be able to configure it more specifically."
"If you really need something powerful to handle multiple routes and delivery points then this solution might not be for you."
"I chose a nine out of ten because some improvements are required, especially concerning East-West traffic or zero-day vulnerabilities."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The prices are slightly expensive."
"My company has to make yearly payments towards the licensing costs attached to the solution. There are no hidden charges apart from the licensing costs of the solution."

"The product is expensive compared to some competitors, especially for the SME segment."
"This is a very good product if you are on the cloud, but the price is a little more expensive."
"Being able to keep the phishing campaigns out of my company has been ROI for me."
"Cost is the main concern that every customer takes into consideration, and Check Point always negotiates a price that is affordable."
"Reasonable cost, quick and easy implementation, and transparent."
"The pricing and licensing are always negotiable."
"Do a full feature evaluation (interactive) with a support person. That is what I did."
"The solution requires a license to be purchased for every user."
"The licensing is on a yearly basis."
