Managed threat detection efficiently with minimal resource usage
We used the solution as a Managed Detection and Response (MDR) service. It detected threats, and the team managing our services took care of it. We did not face any major challenges or attacks, and memory utilization was minimal. It functioned very well Cynet was valuable since it efficiently…

A scalable and stable tool that offers users a great GUI
Though I have not extensively worked on LogRhythm NDR, I know the need for a compute side since, in the past, we had required the compute side to deploy the solution in one of our company's client's infrastructure. The product's setup phase was easy and not complicated. The deployment process of LogRhythm NDR can vary between three and four weeks, depending on the skill set of the people involved in the deployment process. For deployment of the product, you have to purchase the license from LogRhythm, and you have to ensure that the compute side is ready for LogRhythm. After you deploy NDR and sensors in the premises of our company's customer on the SPAN and TAP port, and once the logs go through throughput, you can see the logs coming to LogRhythm NDR's console.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The valuable aspects of Cynet are its EDR and XDR components, which are available at a reasonable price point."
"The visibility it gives is excellent."
"The interface is exceptionally clear and easy to understand."
"The valuable aspects of Cynet are its EDR and XDR components, which are available at a reasonable price point."
"The initial setup is very fast and very easy."
"I like that it is possible to use the solution to check more information about the users' devices."
"The most valuable feature is the monitored support behind it."
"Cynet's most valuable features are laptop and server performance, internal network monitoring, and external firewall lock management."
"It is a stable solution...It is a scalable solution."
"It's an excellent security tool with a user-friendly interface that's easy for anyone to use."
"The solution doesn't require the creation of rules or use cases from scratch, which assists our delivery team in installation and deployment. Its dashboard is user-friendly."
 

Cons

"Having a DLP feature would add value"
"Cynet could improve when a reverse proxy is being used to connect to the servers. There could be an easier configuration because it is not plug-and-play."
"Previously, we used Cynet, but transitioned to Trend Micro due to the lack of complete SSO services, which were costly."
"An administration feature will be useful for Cynet."
"One thing to note is that I highly recommend adding a deep learning-based prevention environment as an additional layer to Cynet. However, I always advise my customers to start with Cynet or XDR, for example, and then focus on the people, technology, and processes involved. This is the best approach to ensure that you are not breached with ransomware. While Cynet can prevent most attacks, there have been cases where ransomware has been quicker than Cynet's detection capabilities. In these situations, an additional tool is necessary to ensure complete protection, and that is what I sell as well."
"They have some things in the pipeline, we understand, and they're going to be able to support Android and all these other devices soon. The key is the devices - which is an aspect that is lacking right now. Every company has that problem, not just Cynet."
"Cynet is capable and cloud-based, however, enterprise organizations often prefer on-premises servers for managing entire organizations."
"Their deployment needs some work, especially with integration with remote monitoring management systems like Datto AutoTask or ConnectWise Automate."
"The tool has one limitation compared to its competitors. It does have a mobile app for NDR monitoring. Moreover, there is only operational training and not deployment training."
"There are opportunities for improvement, particularly in upgrading the expertise of local professionals and addressing support issues, which could potentially lead to cost reduction."
"From an improvement perspective, I would like LogRhythm NDR to reduce the compute size. I would also like LogRhythm NDR to improve the pricing model."

"I don't have specific information about integration capabilities or licensing costs."
"The pricing was good."
"The tool costs are two million rupees for 5000 users."
