Senior Cybersecurity Analyst at a energy/utilities company with 1,001-5,000 employees

It has excellent scalability and allows you to execute custom COCR rules, letting you fine-tune agent monitoring

I'm using Tripwire Enterprise version 9.0. In my company, thirty to forty people use Tripwire Enterprise, mainly different types of engineers, governance, risk, compliance, and cybersecurity personnel. I advise people planning to use Tripwire Enterprise to take the training because the solution has a fairly complex interface. You can do a lot of work with it, but it isn't very easy. Tripwire Enterprise is a sophisticated tool. I rate the tool an eight on a scale of one to ten because it does an excellent job of handling the unique challenges of maintaining NERC CIP compliance and monitoring industrial controls.

Protects from attacks in real-time and provides accurate threat intelligence updates

I rate the ease of setup a seven or eight out of ten. The platform functions very well. We need technical support to make improvements to the platform. The deployment takes eight months. We need two or three system engineers and one electronic engineer specialized in Trellix platforms to deploy the tool. We need only one system engineer to maintain the product.

Cons

"Cloud monitoring could be better. It would also be better if the company followed a pay-as-you-use model."

"The main way that it can be improved is through better reporting."
