Network detection enhances security while seamless integration boosts utility
I use Fortinet FortiNDR for its Network Detection features, primarily with FortiGate on-premises. However, I do not handle day-to-day operations myself; my team manages the tools. In general, there is no issue with FortiGate in our company Some of the valuable features include FortiGate's Network…

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

"Using Fortinet FortiNDR as a bundle is cost-effective, providing a complete package of tools."
"The dashboards are very informative compared to other solutions like Cisco, providing valuable insights into network threats."
"Trellix Network Detection and Response has positively impacted our organization by making our security team more confident and responsible, knowing that the network is being watched all the time, allowing us to respond to threats much faster than we used to."
"It is a good product to implement, especially where the existing technology fails to detect zero day attacks."
"It's a very simple solution and a very effective product in my network."
"Support is very helpful and responsive."
"The initial setup was straightforward, you can do it by yourself, you don't have to find a partner or a FireEye expert."
"It has provided us with better malware, intrusion and incident detection."
"Anyone who is looking for a complete network protection solution and does not have any budget issues should definitely go for it."
"Trellix Network Detection and Response definitely helps make investigations faster and more efficient."
 

Cons

"There is room for improvement in third-party integrations, particularly with other vendors like Check Point and Palo Alto."
"I would like to see the inclusion of sandboxing in the bundling. Currently, sandbox is not included in our package."
"The Trellix solution could be improved by enhancing the Central Management Console for faster visibility, which would help in network detection response."
"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."
"Technical support could be improved."
"Trellix Network Detection and Response is stable but occasionally encounters performance issues, which we can fix quickly."
"The initial setup was complex because of the nature of our environment."
"I heard that FireEye recently was hacked, and a lot of things were revealed. We would like FireEye to be more secure as an organization. FireEye has to be more protective because it is one of the most critical devices that we are using in our environment. They have a concept called SSL decryption, but that is only the packet address. We would like FireEye to also do a lot of decryption inside the packet. Currently, FireEye only does encryption and decryption of the header, but we would like them to do encryption and decryption of the entire packet."
"FireEye’s main feature is its sandboxing or threat emulation capabilities to detect malware with extra add-ons such as signature-based IPS or endpoint protection, but these features are lacking compared to most IPS or endpoint vendors."
"Stability is fine as long as we don't go deeper into the system. Once we go deeper into the SSM, inspection, and decryption, we get some issues."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"The user fee is not as high but the maintenance fee is expensive."
"We're partners with Cisco so we get a reasonable price. It's cheaper than Palo Alto in terms of licensing."
"FireEye is comparable to other products, such as HX, but seems expensive. It may cause us to look at other products in the market."
"The tool is a bit pricey."
"Its price is a bit high. A small customer cannot buy it. Its licensing is on a yearly basis."
"The pricing is a little high."
"When you purchase FireEye Network Security NX, will need to purchase a megabit per second package. You must know your needs from day one."
"There are some additional services that I understand the vendor provides, but our approach was to package all of the features that we were looking to use into the product."
