Centralized cloud security has improved DLP incident management and simplifies email protection
One major challenge is that downloading incidents during the investigation process takes a very long time, and this issue should be resolved. More customized columns and filtering options in incident review would be beneficial. File types should be included, such as file names along with file extensions, which are not currently available to my knowledge. Overall, Skyhigh Security is very good and just needs to improve in terms of the latency of downloading incidents.

A stable solution that provides data protection and employee monitoring features in a single console
If a person wants to use a DLP product, they must know what data they want to protect and how to block, allow, and monitor data. We will not have any issues if the policies are correct and the user is authorized to perform the actions. Uninstalling is also pretty quick. Overall, I rate the solution an eight out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The stability is the most valuable feature; we haven't had any issues with the product and it's easy to configure and manage day to day."
"The management is very good."
"Skyhigh Security positively impacted my organization by allowing us to get rid of the VPNs, which reduced the overhead for IT, and it meant we did not need as many licenses for the VPN software for all of the laptops."
"It help us monitor high risk services, blocking them, and also feeding them to our egress points."
"The other products that I have evaluated do not have the scalability options that McAfee has."
"Now, the stability and speed are greatly improved."
"Box API features with DLP capabilities."
"If possible, have them run a simulation in your live environment for 30 days and you will be impressed with the kind of data that is collected."
"The product provides data protection and employee monitoring features in a single console."
 

Cons

"They only have English support, so I would like for them to add some Spanish support."
"It would be nice to be able to get more advanced search functions to filter out data and quickly obtain the data that we need."
"Sometimes the console performance is slow and updating custom attributes can be cumbersome as you have to do each attribute for a cloud service individually, then click the popup box to continue."
"They could be integrated with CASB."
"The feature that we would like to have is a hybrid environment, including both cloud and on-premises."
"They could be integrated with CASB. I think normally McAfee has this solution in the cloud, but for us the best is on-premise."
"One area for improvement I've seen in Skyhigh Security is that it lacks support for unsanctioned applications, where customers have their applications. Those applications do not come from Microsoft or other popular vendors. For example, Microsoft has support for Teams and it has support for OneDrive, but it doesn't have support for custom applications built by customers. Customers have internal teams building and publishing applications to the external world, but Skyhigh Security doesn't have support for those applications, and this is the main problem I've seen. The solution only supports a pool of applications that are from Microsoft and other major SaaS vendors. McAfee doesn't provide support for custom applications, compared to other vendors who provide it. For example, Bitglass and Netskope both have support for custom applications. Another area for improvement in Skyhigh Security is that its API support is a little weak. I also have not seen a strong integration between the solution and other McAfee products."
"Skyhigh Security can be improved by addressing the current challenges we face with complex DLP policies that are difficult to manage, particularly in managing the exception rules in a large environment."
"The user experience should be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"There is a license required to use this solution and it is paid annually. The price is reasonable."
"Pricing for Skyhigh Security is fine."
"The price of the solution is good and we pay an annual license."
"The biggest thing to watch for is the difference in price per monitored user for the different API integrations."
"Have a risk-based approach towards pricing."
"The solution is quite expensive. As we take add-ons continuously as per our customer's requirements, there are additional charges."
"The licensing fees are based on what environments you are monitoring."
"This is an expensive product, although it is made for larger enterprises and not for small organizations."
