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…

Long-term threat visibility has reduced customer incidents and supports steady recurring revenue
The real-time visibility on network traffic provided by Trend Micro Deep Discovery is good, and my customer is satisfied. My customers have indeed utilized the Threat Intelligence Sharing feature of Trend Micro Deep Discovery. The impact of the Threat Intelligence Sharing feature on overall defense and security is positive. The benefit that Deep Discovery brings to our organization is that we get fewer calls from customers, allowing me to focus on other businesses, and we receive year-on-year revenue for renewals.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The dashboards are very informative compared to other solutions like Cisco, providing valuable insights into network threats."
"Using Fortinet FortiNDR as a bundle is cost-effective, providing a complete package of tools."
"The most valuable feature of Trend Micro Deep Discovery is its complete end-to-end visibility of threats."
"The environment is imported inside the sandbox and in this way, Trend Micro is the leader in the world's markets of sandbox solutions."
"Sandboxing gives us a chance to identify malicious behavior, especially for unknown vulnerabilities, although it's rarely needed as a last resort after all other security measures have failed."
"As a security product, managing threats is crucial for my clients."
"The product is very easy to install."
"The performance and stability are great."
"Deep Discovery is scalable and compatible with other products. It's crucial to have that compatibility because it's an integral part of our security solution. It integrates smoothly. The interface is user-friendly, so administration is simple."
"The solution has extension-based features that help it to analyze the environment. The environment can have different platforms like Windows, Linux, and Mac. The tool will give a report which can confirm the analysis of the issues. You can also get clear information on threats or suspicious files."
 

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."
"Sometimes there needs to be a stability test done. We did tests and checked up to around 20 or 25 samples; out of those tests, two missed and were later detected on the endpoint, so it is not completely stable and it misses things."
"The solution is not scalable as it is an agent product rather than a product designed for scalability."
"Scalability becomes an issue when managing a higher number of customers."
"The solution could be more secure."
"The stability of the solution could be improved. It should be 100% stable, but it's not there right now."
"There are certain aspects of flexibility in the policies that should be added to Deep Discovery."
"Trend Micro Deep Discovery's technical support could be improved, and it could be made more active."
"All issues we faced related to false positives regarding many hashes and URLs specifically for mail gateway and sandboxing, which led us to open a threat ticket with Trend Micro support for validation."

"Compared to its competitors, Trend Micro Deep Discovery is a little expensive."

"Overall, Trend Micro Deep Discovery has proven to be a reliable solution that enhances our security posture while minimizing operational disruptions."
