Reduces the time to detect, investigate, and respond
Pros and Cons
  • "We had previously deployed on-premises, and all we had to do was access the designated console and click a button to migrate all on-premises agents to cloud agents."
  • "I would like to have the capability to export the information we receive from the XDR into Microsoft Excel."

What is our primary use case?

We have deployed Trend Micro XDR on all our endpoints. It is deployed as an agent because we are using Trend Micro Apex, the antivirus agent, and the SaaS agent. This means that we receive notifications from XDR for any suspicious activity related to endpoints. For example, if a user connects to a suspicious website, XDR should alert us based on our rules. It can also generate alerts for malicious Windows activities.

In addition to deploying XDR on our endpoints, we have connected Vision One XDR to our Office 365 email platform. This allows XDR to read incoming emails. We can then configure rules to remove emails from mailboxes if they have certain properties or are particularly suspicious.

We have also connected XDR to our Azure platform, which is our user authentication platform. XDR can monitor for risky user sign-ins, such as sign-ins from unusual locations. If it detects any risk, it will notify us.

Finally, we have integrated XDR with a third-party tool to receive indicators of compromise. When we receive an IOC, Vision One will automatically run a check in our environment to see if any endpoints have been compromised. It will also check to see if any emails have been sent from any of the senders in the IOC listing. If it finds any matches, it will notify us.

We can also configure playbooks to automatically take action when XDR detects a threat. For example, we could configure a playbook to force a user to reset their password or isolate an endpoint from the network.

We are using the Trend Micro Vision One XDR agent. This agent component is installed on all of our endpoints, including servers, workstations, desktops, and any other computer elements. Vision One also has an API-based element, which we have connected to our email system, such as Azure.

How has it helped my organization?

Before Vision One, we had limited visibility into our security posture. Things were happening all around us, but we couldn't see them. With Vision One, we have centralized visibility and management across all of our protection layers, so we can see and respond to threats quickly and effectively.

I cannot imagine my day-to-day operations without the visibility that Vision One provides. It makes all the difference. No other platform compares to Vision One in terms of simplicity, ease of use, and importance.

Vision One has improved our efficiency with centralized visibility. Before Vision One, we had to go to different platforms and tools in our environment. Sometimes the information was missing and sometimes we were searching with the wrong terms. But because I can now see everything at once, it has helped. The decision we are making now is simply to go there, and whatever we have been faced with, the console is enough to make a decision.

We just signed a contract for Managed XDR services. We were managing our security before, but we'll start using their managed services next year. We've received a few escalations from them already, but that's because they're proactively searching for threats, which is a good thing. For example, I got an escalation from them last week for something that we wouldn't have discovered on our own. It wasn't something that the tool would have generated an alert for either, because it was very similar to what a user would normally do. But they were able to find it because they're looking into all of the addresses that they have. This led to us being able to control incidents that would have happened otherwise.

The XDR service has saved us time, enabling us to work on other tasks. The environment is quite complex, so before we had XDR, we didn't have any tool that considered all possibilities or provided any visibility into our environment. When we first started using the tool, it was new to us, but after a couple of years of using it, we've found that it is a legitimate tool that provides valuable information. Instead of seeing it as adding more work to our workload, we see it as helping us to be more proactive and prevent future incidents. For me, it has been a great help and has added real value to our work.

XDR helped us reduce our time to detect and respond to threats. With a single click, I can isolate a computer from the rest of the compliant environment. I had to do this last week when I had to support two escalated computers. Without XDR, there would be hundreds of things that we would not have seen or known about. But with XDR, we can see everything. And that even includes coverage of devices or computers that are not owned by us, such as those used by vendors. If a vendor brings a malicious device onto the property and downloads something malicious, we can detect it as early as possible.

Trend Micro XDR has helped us reduce the time we spend investigating false positive alerts. I am 100 percent confident that everything that comes out of the platform is legitimate. We had a few false positives when we first started using the solution, but because Trend Micro allows us to whitelist specific items, we were able to build our policy accordingly. Sometimes, there are malicious items that we need to allow because of our environment, such as certain security tools. Trend Micro allows us to build a policy that excludes these items from alerts, so we no longer receive alerts for them.

We use the XDR automation capabilities extensively, including playbook automation for tasks like isolating computers, and API-based automation for most other tasks. For example, we are a member of the retail ISAC information-sharing platform, and we have automated scripts from that platform that pull in all malicious senders, IPs, and domains, and pool them into XDR. XDR then automatically scans all computers to see if any of these malicious entities exist. If they do, XDR generates an alert and allows us to take action, such as removing the file. We generally set XDR to allow only, so that we have visibility into all malicious activity, even if we don't take action on it.

What needs improvement?

I would like to have the capability to export the information we receive from the XDR into Microsoft Excel.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using Trend Micro XDR for almost four years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

Trend Micro XDR is stable. We have not experienced any stability issues when using the console. 

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

I do not have access to the backend, so I am not aware of the specific technical details. However, from an end-user perspective, the scalability of the system appears to be excellent.

How are customer service and support?

I reach out to technical support almost every week to address any questions I have. I also have a bi-weekly meeting with their technical team. They guide open tickets and address any concerns we may have. Additionally, we have a monthly meeting with Vision One developers where they discuss upcoming features and seek input. I know exactly who to contact for any assistance I may need. Sometimes, I can simply email them directly instead of opening a ticket. The process is always straightforward and efficient. At times, the prompt responses make me wonder if they are using AI assistance, but I hope that's acceptable. I usually receive a response within a minute or two, which suggests AI involvement. However, the signature at the end of the IT person's email confirms that an actual person is handling my request.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

We had Carbon Black, but we're using it only for application control. With Trend Micro XDR we can detect and respond.

How was the initial setup?

The initial deployment was straightforward. I have extensive experience in deployments across various companies and platforms. However, Trend Micro XDR surpassed all my expectations. We had previously deployed on-premises, and all we had to do was access the designated console and click a button to migrate all on-premises agents to cloud agents. It was incredibly easy. My team of two and I handled the entire process without any involvement from the teams and properties. I right-clicked and moved everything over. A few agents remained unmovable due to their outdated versions, but we successfully migrated close to 99 percent of all agents.

What about the implementation team?

The implementation was completed in-house. Trend Micro provided a document link to help with the deployment.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

Trend Micro XDR is reasonably priced for its value, comparable to other products like VMware Carbon Black.

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

We evaluated an additional option with Carbon Black because we already had that agent in our environment. We also considered Cisco, which has its own XDR platform.

What other advice do I have?

I would rate Trend Micro XDR ten out of ten.

We tried to use the risk index feature, but I didn't have the resources to focus on it at the time. I was more focused on the actual findings that were happening. I have since hired someone who will focus on the risk index, as the primary reason I hired them is to focus on the risk element coming from Vision One, as well as from other third-party intelligence platforms that we work with or have contracts with. Now that I have someone here, we will be focusing on the risk index.

No maintenance is required.

Provides centralized visibility, eliminates blind spots, and saves us a significant amount of time
Pros and Cons
  • "The automatic EDR system that notifies us when something is wrong is valuable."
  • "The information captured by Trend Vision One needs to be more detailed."

What is our primary use case?

We use Trend Vision One for our endpoint detection and antivirus solution.

The endpoint agents are deployed locally on our computers and the centralized controller is in the cloud.

How has it helped my organization?

Trend Vision One's centralized view boosts our visibility into harmful malware, viruses, and ransomware. Before Trend Vision One it was impossible to protect against attacks but the centralized management now makes it easy for us to focus on one platform.

The centralized visibility and management across protection layers have improved our efficiency. Now we have multiple tools to monitor our computers across our enterprise.

The executive dashboard is important because it allows us to dive into advanced functions.

I use the risk index feature daily and report the information weekly. This helps us address the risk factors.

Ransomware and intrusion attacks are common these days and Trend Vision One has helped us protect our devices and prevent these types of attacks.

The attack surface risk management eliminates blind spots.

Trend Micro XDR helps decrease our time to detect and respond because everything is available in one dashboard eliminating the need to use multiple dashboards and look at multiple locations.

Trend Vision One has saved us 80 percent of our time by constantly monitoring our environment and reducing our investigation time.

What is most valuable?

The automatic EDR system that notifies us when something is wrong is valuable.

What needs improvement?

The information captured by Trend Vision One needs to be more detailed.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using Trend Vision One for two years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

Trend Vision One is stable and I would rate it ten out of ten.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

Trend Vision One is scalable.

How are customer service and support?

The technical support is good but 20 percent of the time the response is slow or they assume our issue is solved so they stop communicating with me.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

How was the initial setup?

The initial deployment is straightforward. We run the program and it deploys automatically.

What about the implementation team?

We used a reseller for the implementation.

What was our ROI?

We have seen a return on investment.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

The price for Trend Vision One is reasonable compared to Microsoft and Symantec.

What other advice do I have?

I would rate Trend Vision One a nine out of ten.

We have Trend Vision One deployed across 250 endpoints.

Minimal maintenance is required.

I recommend Trend Vision One because it is easy to deploy and includes rich content.

Its real-time analysis has impacted our security incident response time
Pros and Cons
  • "I can prevent my environment from different types of attacks based on what I see in the Vision One console."
  • "It is very expensive."

How has it helped my organization?

Its real-time analysis has impacted our security incident response time. We use the Workbench console and dashboards. We are normally able to analyze an incident in a few hours, understand what is going on, and provide a specific solution for any type of incident.

A few days ago, a user opened something with malware on their machine. In a few seconds, I received an email, and I received a pop-up in the console. To mitigate this, we removed the machine from the network and checked it.

In terms of integration, we intend to integrate more solutions with Trend Micro, but so far, we have just integrated the firewall.

What is most valuable?

Telemetry is very useful. They provide all the information. I can see specific details about any malware and various types of attacks. I can prevent my environment from different types of attacks based on what I see in the Vision One console.

Log inspection is also very useful for me. We check the logs all the time. In certain cases, it is necessary to analyze with more detail. It is very useful to understand what is going on in my environment with log inspection.

What needs improvement?

It is very expensive. 

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using this solution for ten years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

We do not have any problems with the stability of this solution.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

It scales well. We do not have any problems with scalability.

At the moment, we do not have any plans to increase its usage.

How are customer service and support?

Their technical support is good. They take some time to give me the answers, but in the end, they fix and solve all my problems. I would rate their support a nine out of ten.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

We were not using any other solution previously. We have been using Trend Micro's solutions from the beginning of our operations in Brazil.

How was the initial setup?

It is a SaaS solution. Its initial setup is not complex. It is very easy to deploy. It is not complicated. It is very user-friendly. It took around 15 days.

In terms of implementation strategy, we prepared some test machines and servers. After that, we deployed it for the entire company.

They do the maintenance, but we do not have any downtime in this maintenance mode.

What about the implementation team?

We had a Brazilian reseller.

What was our ROI?

We have not seen an ROI.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

Trend Micro's cost is higher than other solutions. That is the main reason why we need to switch to another solution.

We are using a full license that provides different types of features, but CrowdStrike does not provide some of the features such as MDM or anti-spam. We do not have these options or features with CrowdStrike. If we switch to CrowdStrike, we would have to buy other solutions to have a complete solution.

In addition to the license, there are no extra costs.

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

Its cost is high for us, so we are checking other options and other companies to provide the same solution. We are evaluating CrowdStrike, Trellix, McAfee, and Sophos. We have not yet received the quotation, but their cost is lower than Trend Micro.

What other advice do I have?

Trend Vision One is very useful. It has many functionalities and integrations. Its integration with other products is growing. In the future, it will probably be the biggest console in the world.

Trend Micro is making some changes to the console. At the moment, it is a little bit confusing for our use case because we are using three or four consoles from Trend Micro. We intend to migrate to just one, which is the Vision One console, but at the moment, we are using the Apex One console for the workstations and the Cloud One console for the servers. I do not know if the integration is complicated for Trend Micro, but at this moment, it is not so easy for me to manage all devices.

I would rate Trend Vision One an eight out of ten.

Has built-in AI, a single pane of glass, and centralized visibility
Pros and Cons
  • "We are very impressed with the single pane of glass visibility that Trend Micro XDR provides."
  • "I think that continued optimization of the environment towards automation and orchestration, a kind of layer that sits underneath all of the technologies, would be extremely important."

What is our primary use case?

We use Trend Micro XDR for rapid response to end-user computing and security concerns.

As a health system, one of our core challenges is ensuring full visibility into our attack surface. We have many thousands of endpoints and end users that must be properly secured and protected. Our primary use case was to improve visibility, and response time, and reduce complexity. That is why we chose Trend Micro XDR.

Trend Micro XDR is deployed on Trend Micro's private cloud.

How has it helped my organization?

We are using Trend Micro XDR on our endpoint and server infrastructure. The coverage is extremely important to our organization.

Trend Micro XDR provides us with centralized visibility and management across protection layers.

The centralized visibility and management across protection layers have helped our efficiency. The most significant advantage is that we used to manage these platforms with three or even five engineers, and now we're managing them with one.

It is extremely important to us that we can drill down from the executive dashboards into XDR detections. This provides us with the single pane of glass view that I mentioned previously. Being able to see at a high level that there may be systems that are behind on patch levels or need additional service or support, and then being able to drill down specifically to an individual machine, which may be unique in our environment, is very helpful.

We use the risk index to evaluate ourselves holistically, including our performance against best practices and security, as well as our performance against other healthcare systems around the world. This allows us to identify areas where we may have vulnerabilities or where we are particularly strong so that we can focus on improving in the areas where we need to.

Trend Micro XDR has helped us improve our resource utilization through automation, reducing manual effort and enabling faster response times. In under a week, we had tuned our environment to perform optimally.

Trend Micro's Managed XDR service has significantly reduced our team's workload by nearly 50 percent, providing a big improvement in our overall threat intelligence and endpoint security.

The Managed XDR service has enabled our team to work on other tasks. This additional availability for our staff has allowed us to reduce our need for contractors. If we are overburdened, we will hire contractors to assist in other areas of the business. However, because we have become more efficient, I have been able to hire some of those contractors and reduce the burden of contract labor.

Attack surface work management capabilities have been extremely valuable. The user and identity services provided by CREM help us to focus on and improve visibility into end-user behavior, including that of endpoints such as laptops and desktops, the network, cloud infrastructure, and applications.

The ability to detect our blind spots has significantly improved our security posture. Seeing everything clearly in a single, easy-to-understand dashboard allows us to allocate our resources directly to where they are needed most, enabling us to respond faster.

The biggest advantage of Trend Micro XDR is that it has helped decrease our time to detect and respond to threats by around 50 percent.

Trend Micro XDR has helped reduce the amount of time we spend investigating false positive alerts by 60 percent.

Trend Micro XDRs automation capabilities save us around ten hours per week. 

What is most valuable?

We are very impressed with the single pane of glass visibility that Trend Micro XDR provides. It allows us to work from a single console instead of having to use four or five separate tools to maintain the same level of security. This is extremely helpful.

The manageability and artificial intelligence built into Trend Micro XDR are extremely helpful.

What needs improvement?

I've seen a lot of improvement in just the year that we've been with Trend Micro. However, I think that continued optimization of the environment towards automation and orchestration, a kind of layer that sits underneath all of the technologies, would be extremely important. When we look at the speed and sophistication of attacks today, such as ransomware, malware, and cyber threats, we need tools and technologies that can react faster. So, I think integration with automation, orchestration, and artificial intelligence will help tremendously.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using Trend Micro XDR for one year.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

Trend Micro XDR is remarkably stable.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

Considering our growth rate of nearly 30 percent per year, Trend Micro XDR is scalable enough to keep up, so we have no concerns.

How are customer service and support?

Technical support is exceptional. They are extremely engaged and supportive of everything we have needed.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

We previously used Sophos but switched to Trend Micro because of its enhanced capabilities.

How was the initial setup?

The initial deployment was straightforward. The deployment took between one and two weeks to complete. 

Moving between security tools requires an analysis of the existing environment to understand the current configuration, rulesets, and architecture. This analysis is quickly followed by implementation to improve the security posture and validation to ensure that the infrastructure is not only properly protected, but better protected than before.

Three people were required for the deployment.

What was our ROI?

We have been able to reduce some labor costs and use our resources more efficiently. These savings of hours per week are definitely a return on investment.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

The solution is fairly priced.

What other advice do I have?

I would rate Trend Micro XDR ten out of ten. The solution works extremely well for us. In a healthcare environment, the types of data and the sheer size of the attack surface are somewhat extraordinary. Having the enhanced capabilities of the Trend Micro toolset has been very important to us, and I strongly recommend it.

We have 11,000 users, five acute care hospitals, and around 80 clinics.

Two people are required to maintain Trend Micro XDR for the investigation of threats and incidents. When threat intelligence comes in from Trend Micro or we receive an alert, we validate or respond to it. A lot of this process has been automated, which has helped tremendously.

I strongly recommend Trend Micro XDR and advise doing a proof of concept against any current tool on the market, as it works extremely well and a POC can clearly demonstrate this in a short period of time.

Easy to set up with good support and great threat intelligence
Pros and Cons
  • "The most valuable feature is how the stack fully integrates all components of a solution."
  • "The SOAR features (Security Playbooks) are quite limited."

What is our primary use case?

We use Vision One to detect to detect and respond to malware incidents. With endpoints (Apex One/Cloud One Workload Security), network (Deep Discovery Inspector) and Office365 (Cloud Email and Collaboration Security).

The environment is complex, distributed in more than +100 locations. Some locations are just offices, some others are industrial facilities with ICS and SCADA. Besides Windows, we deal with a lot of operating systems, including Solaris on SPARC. And our users are diverse, with lots of employees roaming around the country.

With CREM, we tackle important use cases around identity protection and risk management in general. Identification, prioritization, and remediation.

How has it helped my organization?

The full stack of Vision One has delivered what "SIEM 2.0" couldn't deliver. The capability to monitor threats and discover attack vectors before they are exploited and across all our workspace (on-prem, IaaS, PaaS and SaaS). We have invested well over a million into SIEM during the last decade. A full ArcSight upgrade and then a Splunk migration assisted with a large MSSP. Vision One is still ahead at a fraction of the cost.

Going through a capable, single-vendor solution was necessary, given our small team. Choosing the best solutions for every task and building all the integrations was not an option.

Vision One is much more than just EDR for us; it is a threat intelligence platform and a SOAR too. And even with the limited capabilities in this area, we find ways to tackle challenges our MSSP and SOC haven't been able to accomplish on a very large budget.

What is most valuable?

I like everything. The most valuable feature is how the stack fully integrates all components of a solution. Then, integrations with third parties will be provided.

As an example, I am capable of sending a suspicious file directly to my Deep Discovery Analyzer appliance (a sandbox) while investigating a suspicious download/file interaction, and I can then quickly push the IOCs in the suspicious object lists to protect both managed endpoints, and the rest of the network too! Yes, you can push domains and IP addresses to Palo Alto through a Trend Micro Service Gateway, ensuring you can protect even what cannot receive an endpoint. And all this without writing a single line of code. The ease of use and ease of deployment for use cases like this are my favourite features.

What needs improvement?

The SOAR features (Security Playbooks) are quite limited. At the moment, it is impossible to execute a simple piece of Python code that would pull or push something to an API, for example. While you can tackle some use cases, a SOAR from another vendor is still a must-have.

To assist with complex use case integrations, having all the data from the SIEM inside XDR would be great, too. That's where the market is moving with solutions like Falcon Logscale and Cortex XSIAM. Pivoting from XDR to Splunk or vice-versa can be time-consuming during incidents.

For how long have I used the solution?

I was actually an early beta tester of the Apex One Endpoint Sensor before Vision One appeared in 2021. That would be three solid years of using it.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

Quite reliable. In the last three years, only one incident created memory leaks on Windows Servers. We didn't see too much impact (fortunately) as a workaround could be quickly provided.

Support is quite responsive when something does work well. However, we do pay for Premium support.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

The scalability is really good.

How are customer service and support?

My experience is generally good, but I have had the chance to deal with premium support. I'd say I get the support I expect for the price that I pay.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

Although we have been dealing with other security vendors (McAfee, Symantec, Proofpoint, and more), Vision One was really our first EDR.

How was the initial setup?

The initial setup was a breeze. It is realistically one of the strong points of the solution.

What about the implementation team?

We implemented the solution in-house. Although with premium support, you do get a lot of help from Trend Micro if you ask for it. You'll be able to talk to actual experts.

What was our ROI?

It is very hard to quantify an ROI on a security product. It doesn't generate revenues, and you can't quantify the cost of incidents that didn't happen.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

Product names are changing all the time. Lots of changes in the last three years. They introduced the concept of credits, too, which did not make anything easier.

It's also easy to underestimate the credits required with Cloud Email and Collaboration Security: people invited from third-party tenants will count.

The credit usage and allocation tool has been improving, at least.

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

We had a look at Carbon Black and CrowdStrike Falcon.

What other advice do I have?

It's probably the best solution for a small team that cannot absorb the complexity of a multivendor solution. The ability to execute VS the cost is surprisingly good.

Has made our detection and response time much faster
Pros and Cons
  • "I like Vision One's workbench. It provides helpful logs that I can search, and the telemetry is excellent because I can see what's happening during an attack or potential attack."
  • "Vision One's search could be improved. While the platform is very user-friendly, the search feature uses terms that aren't as intuitive."

What is our primary use case?

We use Vision One together with the other products in the Trend Micro security stack, such as XDR, Site Management, and Apex One. 

How has it helped my organization?

Vision One has made our detection and response time much faster. We have 30-plus integrations, helping us to identify the most critical threats. The more connections, the better. We can also identify and resolve false positives faster. 

What is most valuable?

I like Vision One's workbench. It provides helpful logs that I can search, and the telemetry is excellent because I can see what's happening during an attack or potential attack.

Another one of my favorite features is attack surface risk management. It shows me faults and blind spots in my security. I also like the attack phase management. The model shows the risks in the corporation and provides considerable information about what is happening on the platform and the network, offering more visibility. There's also a risk index that shows me where I can improve my security. 

Vision One provides centralized visibility and management across multiple layers. This is critical because I need to see what's happening. It also allows me to set separate rules and policies for some security areas. 

What needs improvement?

Vision One's search could be improved. While the platform is very user-friendly, the search feature uses terms that aren't as intuitive. The automation is excellent, but I wish there were more templates to help me optimize more things. 

For how long have I used the solution?

I have used Vision One for nearly a year.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

I rate Vision One nine out of 10 for stability. It has only crashed once. 

How are customer service and support?

I rate Trend Micro support six out of 10. They respond quickly but the answers aren't clear sometimes. They don't always understand the issue, so I need to explain a lot.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Neutral

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

I previously used the Microsoft 365 security stack, but I found Microsoft's XDR lacking. We also used Microsoft CASB and Defender for Endpoint. Vision One's threat intelligence and modeling are better. It has all the features like attack surface and risk management as well as the workbench. I also find Vision One easier to navigate. 

How was the initial setup?

Vision One is easy to deploy. It's mostly automatic, but we needed to deploy some of the agents manually. If you can deploy all of the agents to the endpoints automatically, it takes only about five minutes. 

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

Vision One is expensive, but I think it's a typical market price. 

What other advice do I have?

I rate Visione One nine out of 10. I recommend fully exploring Vision One's features. It has many features that you don't need to pay extra for. There are so many things to explore. For example, they have free playbooks for third-party integration.

Great support, easy to set up, and offers good visibility
Pros and Cons
  • "The search features help us try to correlate information and identify any suspicious activity."
  • "We do use the automation capability a little. However, we noticed some limitations, especially on the playbook side."

What is our primary use case?

Normally, we use the solution for day-to-day investigations. We get alerts when something is going on in the environment. Right now, we are using that tool for the asset management team to identify services or applications that are not allowed for governance and all of these purposes. In addition to that, we use it for isolating devices. We also have a service with them, an MDR service. They analyze information, and they do investigations for us as well.

How has it helped my organization?

Mainly, we were concerned with the visibility of the environment. We didn't have a tool that was able to allow us to see or have visibility of what the endpoints were doing on the servers in the environment. That was the main reason to adopt this solution - to have visibility on the environment as, in the past, we didn't have that capability.

What is most valuable?

The isolation of devices has been really important. We like all the attack surface-managed NPEs. It's helping us to identify devices and protect us on the network. That's in combination with third-party integrations as well. We have integrations that are helping us to identify devices using our vulnerability management services. It's scanning the network and it's sending all that data to VisionOne. With that information, we identify devices that are protected on the network and the environment.

The reports are a really good feature for showing results to upper management levels.

The search features help us try to correlate information and identify any suspicious activity. That's another feature that has been really important.

We are using it everywhere except for the network, so we don't have the network discovery service from Trend Micro. However, we have it on endpoint servers and email and also the cloud as well. We use cloud conformity to connect that piece.

Trend Micro has a feature called Vision One, that provides us with centralized visibility management across all protection levels. That's helping us to have a centralized view of the console. That's the main reason why we still have that product.

Centralized visibility is important. When we are doing investigations, we can do everything in one console instead of moving to different screens or different windows. The centralized visibility and management across these protection levels helped with our efficiency. It helps us to identify quicker, any potential threat, or any special activity.

They have this feature called Risk Index which I use sometimes to validate the level of rates we have. We don’t use it often - maybe once every one or two weeks. We use it to rank our security operations overall. Mostly, we just check it out of curiosity.

We use the Managed XDR service that they have. It relieves a lot of workload especially during investigations or interim reports about any particular activity - especially with the coverage after hours. It is helping us with the capability there. Also, if something really bad is happening, we have eyes watching all the activity, which is nice.

Using this Managed XDR service enables our team to work on other tasks - especially when we, in certain ways, allocate some of the investigation pieces. We basically create a request for them to investigate things, and that allows us to focus on other things to optimize our security toolset. That's really helpful.

We use the attack surface risk management capability they have. We use that heavily right now. It was a big use case in the past few months. We use it to identify multiple devices without protection, the applications that have been used by our users, and which ones are risky. We are using that on a regular basis. It's helped us identify blind spots and more assets. It's positively affected our security posture by improving a lot of our visibility.

XDR helped us decrease our time to detect or respond to threats. In the past, we didn't have that visibility. When we enabled that tool, at the beginning, it was a little bit noisy. That's something to be expected coming from a new tool. However, after testing through these years, things are improving, and now we can see better results, especially during investigation alerts.

The solution has helped us to reduce the amount of time we spend investigating false positive alerts. In the beginning, there was a large amount of false positives. Right now, we are day to day trying to reduce them. At this point, they are lower compared with the beginning of the implementation. Things are improving. We are reducing false positives as we go which is great.

What needs improvement?

We do use the automation capability a little. However, we noticed some limitations, especially on the playbook side. The API we use. We are integrating that with another product, a SOAR product. The playbooks are a little bit limited in what they can do at this point. Let's say that we want to connect on a specific API. The templates we cannot modify very well. When we noticed that limitation, we decided to go and use Trend Micro VisionOne API and connect it to other tools to develop that activity using another product.

Under attack surface management, when you go to the specific sites or applications that the users are accessing, the capability of downloading that report could be better. Let's say, as an example, we want to identify users using chatGPT, for example. We want to download that data through an API or through the GUI. Right now, it's not available as an option. Maybe having the capability of extracting data from VisionOne for specific areas of the tool could work. That's something that could be useful, especially if we want to generate that report and send it to specific teams. Often, we don't want to provide DX to all the people. Sometimes it's easier to just have that file and share that file with the people who need to have that information. 

For how long have I used the solution?

I've been using the solution for around three years now. 

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

The stability is good. It's not very common to have any outages. Sometimes there may be a glitch, however, it's rare. Normally we have 95% stability.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

The scalability is good, especially when we are talking about third-party integrations. We can have visibility and control of all different assets. So we can have good scalability and visibility and know more about the environment in places where we didn't have any idea things were happening. It's a SaaS tool, and we don't have to do any maintenance, and it's easy to deploy. It's pretty straightforward.

How are customer service and support?

When we have specific issues or problems connecting some products we ask for support. They respond really fast. They always try to mitigate and resolve all the issues we have. If they cannot resolve the problem, they normally share some suggestions on how we can mitigate future problems.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

We did not use other solutions, although we did use Apex One for a long time. We have also used an EDR product.

How was the initial setup?

I was involved in the deployment. I was the one leading the data during the implementation. The process is pretty straightforward. It was a little tricky to reduce the false positive alerts, however, the portion of deploying to the environment and connecting the pieces was simple. 

From our side, we had three or four people involved in the implementation. 

What about the implementation team?

We had some help with the deployment and we had some guidance in the beginning. We requested some support from our account manager.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

The pricing is good if you look at all the compatibilities and features offered by the product. There are features that can increase the pricing. We can put some credits to some features, however, if we want to enable them. With the amount of credit we have, we are covered for all of our needs.

What other advice do I have?

I'd rate the product eight out of ten.

It is a really good product and easy to deploy. They allow you to have more visibility on your environment, especially if you have any kind of XDR solution. It will increase the visibility of what's happening in the environment. Also, from the perspective of doing maintenance updates or patches, the cloud is the way to go. The product management team does a really good job of increasing the features, and they are listening really closely to what the customer needs via feedback. 

Which deployment model are you using for this solution?

Great network protection, a centralized view, and user-friendly
Pros and Cons
  • "The most valuable feature is the network protection shield on every server, which isolates attacks and prevents our clients from being affected."
  • "The deployment process could be more streamlined over the existing infrastructure, as it was not as easy as we thought."

What is our primary use case?

We use Trend Micro XDR to enhance our security framework.

One of our partners was the victim of a major attack, and we realized that our environment was susceptible to the same thing because we were only using an antivirus solution. 

Trend Micro XDR is deployed on-premises, and we use it on our core business servers, clients, and the management portal to protect all of our network nodes from attacks.

How has it helped my organization?

Trend Micro Vision One provides centralized visibility and management across protection layers, which is important. It is part of our monitoring tool. The visibility gives us a centralized view of our network nodes, activities, and possible attacks.

The risk index feature plays an important role in our KPIs, which we report to the management team. Our business is dependent on our systems running 24/7.

Trend Micro XDR has helped decrease our time to detect and respond to threats.

Trend Micro XDR has reduced the time we spend investigating false positive alerts by 50 percent.

What is most valuable?

The most valuable feature is the network protection shield on every server, which isolates attacks and prevents our clients from being affected.

What needs improvement?

The deployment process could be more streamlined over the existing infrastructure, as it was not as easy as we thought. We are working with an expert from Trend Micro to improve the rollout process, but it has taken some time and we do not yet have a concrete understanding of the issue. There are some features that we have to install repeatedly before they start running.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using Trend Micro XDR for one year.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

Trend Micro XDR is stable.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

Trend Micro XDR is scalable.

How are customer service and support?

The technical support is good.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

How was the initial setup?

The deployment took six to eight weeks to complete. We had around five part-time people involved in the deployment.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

Trend Micro XDR is expensive but we got a good deal from Trend Micro. We pay for an annual license.

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

Currently, we are researching the question of whether to use Trend Micro XDR when we switch from our classic NPLS internal corporate lines to an SD-WAN solution. Or if we should use an integrated solution from the SD-WAN and firewall provider, such as Palo Alto or Fortinet.

What other advice do I have?

I would rate Trend Micro XDR eight out of ten.

We have 300 people in our organization that use the solution.

Maintenance is easy and done by two people, who update, patch, and install new servers; client-side, they also update user stations and analyze logs.

I recommend Trend Micro XDR. It is user-friendly.

Which deployment model are you using for this solution?

On-premises
