Offers strong incident response features but requires more asset visibility and flexibility
Dragos' best features are that they are more focused towards Incident Response, so they have a dedicated playbook in their platform, making it easier for anyone investigating any incidents to investigate the alerts. One of the main features of Dragos is that they have a dedicated Incident Response team, so if clients need any help, they are there to help. Dragos does real-time monitoring as well, collecting mirror traffic from the span port of the switch, and as soon as it gets the traffic, it analyzes it in real time and shows what's going on in the networks, which relates to the real-time visibility feature for ICS networks.

Easy to integrate, enhances operational efficiency, and has machine learning capabilities
We are satisfied with the product. We can passively scan the network for anomalies and let it learn through machine learning about the normal state of the network. If it deviates from that, then it is an anomaly. It would give an alert about anomalous behaviors like a cyber attack. The network visibility has enhanced operational efficiency. It is easy to integrate the solution with the existing industrial control systems.

Pros

"Dragos' best features are that they are more focused towards Incident Response, so they have a dedicated playbook in their platform, making it easier for anyone investigating any incidents to investigate the alerts."
"Dragos is more expensive than other vendors, probably about fifteen to twenty percent more, but it is generally worth the investment."
"The network visibility has enhanced operational efficiency."
 

Cons

"I think Dragos can offer more flexibility similar to Nozomi and more visibility into the assets, nodes, and links, which would make it more competitive in the future."
"Dragos could improve its asset visibility and discovery tools, as the competitor Claroty has better options in this area."
"The tool must provide new features similar to Radiflow."
