Constant monitoring and analysis boosts network security
There is always room for improvement. I am not giving it a perfect score because I am sure there is something that could be enhanced.Having some sort of certification or training, along with more periodic webinars might be helpful. Having a larger support network would be beneficial. Nobody I know has heard of Lumu, so they are in the same space as Darktrace or CrowdStrike, but people give blank stares. As the community grows for Lumu then that will improve, but that is not really a criticism of Lumu, they simply have not been around that long.

Unified monitoring has improved hybrid visibility and automates threat detection across our network
There are definitely areas for improvements in ThreatSync NDR, as no product is perfect. Its effectiveness depends on proper network visibility, so if important traffic segments are not mirrored or monitored, detection may be incomplete. Regarding improvements needed, ThreatSync NDR can definitely work on the user interface because it is currently a bit complex, and security teams sometimes find it unfamiliar with the behavioral analytics. If they can make it more user-friendly, that would help. Regarding ThreatSync NDR's AI capabilities, I think its governance and security are not fully enabled. While AI-assisted threat detections are there, it still requires significant improvements. However, the positive aspect is that it has significantly reduced the manual tasks and work of the security personnel.

Pricing and Cost Advice
