Review summaries and opinions

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

ROI

Sentiment score

6.6

Microsoft Purview enhances ROI via security improvements, process automation, and compliance, despite challenges in quantifying exact returns.

Sentiment score

7.0

Securiti reduced manual effort and costs, scanning data efficiently, but certification-related benefits are still uncertain.

Purview can do a quick scan, and it doesn't use human resources, so it gets time to do things that we need humans to focus on.

Room For Improvement

Microsoft Purview Information Protection needs improvements in integration, affordability, data protection, AI, automation, reliability, and cloud storage scanning.

Securiti needs improved data classification, AI, and security solutions for better efficiency, fraud prevention, and regulatory compliance.

Effectiveness in Microsoft Purview Information Protection means enforcing the policy and making sure it works consistently across non-Microsoft products as well.

SantoshDeshpande

Director Security Architecture at a financial services firm with 5,001-10,000 employees

A lot of functionality in Microsoft Purview Information Protection is not exposed in an API officially yet, which has made a lot of implementation work difficult because we have to do click ops instead of DevOps.

Setup Cost

Microsoft Purview Information Protection offers competitive, bundled pricing with E3 and E5 licenses, appealing for integrated security solutions.

Securiti offers moderately priced, flexible licensing with increased costs, challenging deployment estimation, and free setup for some users.

I talked to people who had compared it to other products on the market, and they're spending five figures to get started.

The E5 license covers most of the solutions for different technologies, so that way, it is good and more affordable compared to any other solution.

Achieve comprehensive data protection with reliable performance and room for enhanced discovery accuracy

Associate Director at LTI - Larsen & Toubro Infotech

The product is still in a growing phase. I could see that many use cases in their product are not capable enough in terms of detecting or protecting. Compared to other products, they are in the middle of bringing their solution up to the mark, so it is not a full-grown solution. They have to get more accurate results in terms of data discovery and classification. The second thing is their support; support from Microsoft takes a lot of time to get a response from their support team. The third thing is their OCR capability is not that great in terms of identifying the documents. We would love to see response times of less than 24 hours. Additionally, there is no way to check the policy's current status in terms of whether it got synced or not. You have to wait and test the use cases after 24 hours or after 48 hours, and once it starts working, then it appears the policy got implemented.

Have built a zero trust foundation that protects customer data and reduces business risk

Chief Manager IT at a financial services firm with 10,001+ employees

To improve Securiti, I would say that ultimately the IT team as well as the business team, there has to be an amalgamation of their thought process, convergence of their thoughts, objectives, aspirations for achieving the business objective of a particular organization. The way forward is to form the fusion team wherein there is a judicious mix of business and IT and both the teams understand each other's limitations and the aspirations and the common objectives. As far as needed improvements in Securiti, I would say that automation is key. If you look at the kind of huge amount of data which SOC integrated devices are generating in terms of alerts, automation or the appropriate use of AI is the way forward. That will lead to the overall improvement in the efficiency as well as the threat intelligence will be much more accurate. To my mind, automation with the augmented use of GenAI or the agentic AI solution is the way forward. I choose eight for Securiti because for it to be a nine or 10, ultimately the uptime has to be improved, it should be nearing 100%. Apart from that, there has to be more unified communication happening between various customer facing applications. These siloed applications having their own kind of security solutions implemented also have to be brought on a uniform platform. Until that happens, there is always a gap which has to be filled. The processes within the SOC, whether it is SIEM, NBAD, or your DAM, alert analysis, logs analysis, these have to be predictive analysis, and the thwarting of the cyber attacks still requires more effort.
