Has essential threat detection capabilities, but the features for intelligence need enhancement
We integrated this tool with our security infrastructure. We installed it on a Linux server, where we have a Logger and ESM installed. With the Linux server as the hub, we manage all the configurations and rules, including those for email triggers. The logs are routed through a connector to the Logger, allowing us to monitor our infrastructure effectively. The platform helps us improve threat detection capabilities. I recommend it to others and rate it a seven out of ten.

Reduces detection and response times through automation and alert correlation
The best features that Trellix Helix Connect offers are SOAR, automation, hyperautomation, and the correlation of alerts and threat intelligence, for example, when the alerts cross through MITRE ATT&CK, which stand out most to me. Out of those features, automation, alert correlation, and threat intelligence have made my work easier and more effective as we integrate many cybersecurity solutions into the XDR and set up the use cases to reduce MTTD and MTTR from days to minutes. I would add that the level of integration with other brands is something that surprises me about the features of Trellix Helix Connect. Trellix Helix Connect has positively impacted my organization as it is the most important tool to provide MDR service to our clients, which has resulted in specific outcomes and improvements.

Cybereason vs. Interset vs. SQRRL
Capture DB - they all use NoSQL db and hence solve the ad hoc query and 'go back in time' problem with current best of breed SIEM and DLP solutions that rely on real time analysis of incoming logs (and don't store them). This means deeper and quicker iterative threat analysis and assessment…
