Offers strong behavioral insight and seamless integration to support evolving defense strategies
While we have sold other Forcepoint products, percentage-wise, DLP is the highest one. I mostly deal with DLP because in this part of India, DLP is more in demand for Forcepoint. Trellix has DLP and an IPS, which is performing well. In India, we see mostly two companies in IPS, which are Trend Micro and Trellix. Trellix does have an Intrusion Prevention System, similar to an IDPS. Technology is something that needs to keep improving and upgrading. As far as DLP is concerned, I have always said that Forcepoint DLP is better than Trellix. Some of my customers are working with Forcepoint and Trellix. I provided this review a rating of eight.

Client feedback highlights smooth performance with enhancements expected over time
The system responds to potential threats in real time, which is very important, and the Trend Micro TippingPoint Threat Protection System performs excellently. In Bangladesh, one bank keeps performing with this solution, and I think it will be an example for others as well. The bank wants to protect their network, and this is a cybersecurity solution. For providing cybersecurity solutions, they explore many things. Basically, every kind of BFSI uses a network firewall, which is a very basic component.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"My experience with Forcepoint DLP is that it is a good product, and customer feedback has always been positive."
"Trend Micro TippingPoint Threat Protection System is very stable. In addition, the provider gives notice of any changes well in advance, which is important for planning updates."
"A standout feature of TippingPoint is its strong integration with various solutions. It stands out as one of the leading network Intrusion Prevention Systems (IPS) in the current market and is known for its seamless integration with other solutions. For instance, when it identifies a potential threat within the traffic stream, it meticulously analyzes the data. Even in multilayer security scenarios, Tipping Point's network IPS can serve as a bypass for the basic firewall. If a threat is identified by Tipping Point, it promptly shares this information with the other systems. This ensures that they're updated and can employ the necessary solutions from their signature databases. The entire network gets safeguarded automatically. This integration extends to components like security and FX. This linkage streamlines our operations, offering a consolidated point of control for managing threats effectively."
"It ships with a default profile that enables approximately 2300 filters for items that should never legitimately exist on a network, including certain attacks such as buffer overflows as well as malicious downloads."
"The most valuable feature is the central command center (APEX ONE), where we can control and manage the solution."
"The solution's IDS functionality filters the traffic and blocks malware by blocking the connections."
"The IPS signatures and the IPS database that are given are much better than what is commonly available."
"You don't need any hardware because the solution is on the cloud. I like that Trend Micro TippingPoint Threat Protection System is easy to install and manage."
"Quick and simple installation without specific knowledge Less administrative load, as after tuning only 30-40 minutes needed per day to manage it Sorting/Blocking/Searching can be done in one or two moves"
 

Cons

"Trellix Intrusion Prevention System - Virtual needs to be more focused on the product line and should consider the current scenario of threats to provide better solutions for handling those threats frequently."
"Customer Service: OK, but not great ... very US centric."
"Trend Micro TippingPoint Threat Protection System needs strong Spanish-language support."
"Premium support is lucrative but it is very expensive."
"An area for improvement in Trend Micro TippingPoint Threat Protection System is the complexity of its interface."
"Your IPS is only as good as the threat intelligence behind it. TippingPoint should be able to combine ArcSight into IP blocking services, not wait for Fortify to pull ArcSight."
"It takes a lot of time before you're connected to an engineer, so an area for improvement in Trend Micro TippingPoint Threat Protection System is the response time of its technical support team."
"TTPS is a bit behind in visuals, the UI, and some data elements."
"There is room for improvement in customer service and support."
