Great for PCI compliance but issues with stability and large amounts of data
I mainly use this solution to meet PCI compliance The automation of compliance reports and the correlation of the log have been major improvements.  The most valuable feature is the predefined reports for PCI compliance. The correlation suite needs to be improved. I also think they need to…

Offers comprehensive report generation while maintaining ease of integration
We need to improve Trellix ESM by making sure that most of the logging devices available in the global market should be covered, and if there is any device which is not covered, there should not be any additional charges for writing the custom parsers on that. We can add some new features regarding AI in the future for Trellix ESM, but the maturity will take a longer time. There are many false positives that happen in an environment during the first couple of months, or around six months, so the system analyst is not able to identify whether the event which has occurred is a true positive or a false positive.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The FIM features in the Change Tracker and the Log Tracker are the most valuable."
"This is a very easy-to-use interface with a quick ramp-up time."
"File integrity monitoring is a very important function."
"The most valuable feature is the predefined reports for PCI compliance."
"I like the ease of deployment."
"It can be easily deployed with the other solutions."
"The strongest part of Trellix ESM is that we get quite good reports."
"It is a good central viewpoint for issues. These can then be investigated in more detail on the subnet server(s)/endpoints."
"It blocks the things which are not to be allowed. It has an adaptive mode where it learns for itself."
"McAfee as a whole is a good solution."
"It is easy to use and deploy. It comes with user-friendly manuals."
"The most valuable feature is for the security operation center because it provides visibility of all traffic within the company infrastructure."
 

Cons

"I would like to see the integration of AI technology, so rather than manually monitoring the logs, the tool will understand it and take care of it."
"It is able to identify the vulnerability, however, they need an option to auto-mitigate."
"Only one minor deployment issue came up and it was resolved quickly. No other areas of improvement come to mind yet."
"The correlation suite needs to be improved."
"There are always multiple bugs in the product. For example, the console page was hanging multiple times. Afterwards, they released multiple upgrades for the same, multiple patches from McAfee."
"We need to improve Trellix ESM by making sure that most of the logging devices available in the global market should be covered, and if there is any device which is not covered, there should not be any additional charges for writing the custom parsers on that."
"McAfee is no more providing security updates on this product, and the enhancements to this product seem to have stopped. Moreover, we don't get proper support, and we struggle to get its support. It would be good if they can add some AI engine and out of the box use cases because it is currently limited to the same scenario and the same setup. I have done a POC for Securonix, LogRhythm. These products are much more ahead as compared to McAfee ESM. They have included multiple modules in the same solution. Correlation is very easy. If McAfee ESM can improve, especially in such implementations, then I believe it would be much better."
"Update to user interface from version 9 is cosmetic in some aspects, and after a few clicks you are back on the old interface."
"Product currently requires Flash."
"I have to purchase a new box now. Its existing box is not scalable and I can't use it anymore."
"Areas of Trellix ESM that could be improved or enhanced include checking on the clients who are still on-prem, especially banks, as most are not moving everything to the cloud due to confidentiality and accessibility during network outages."
"It cannot integrate with our Next-Generation Firewall and few applications such as Cisco ACI."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"NNT's pricing is moderate - I would rate their pricing two-and-a-half out of ten."
"Consider both their on-premises solution and their hosted solution. Both are reasonably priced."
"We have selected a perpetual license along with support."
"When compared to IBM Security QRadar and other similar platforms, the pricing of McAfee ESM is reasonable and comparatively less expensive."
"The cost is all included. The finance department handles the financial part, and we mostly don't get involved in it."
"We renew our license annually."
"It is an inexpensive product. We purchase its yearly license."
"The pricing is good, and they are competitive compared to providers such as RSA and IBM QRadar."
"We pay for our licensing fees on a yearly basis, and there are no costs in addition to the standard licensing fees."
"You should buy the distributed option instead of the all-in-one for environments with more than 1000 end points."
"The pricing is fair."
