Dynamic file analysis enhances threat detection capabilities
Cloud sandbox allows customers to analyze email and text documents without purchasing any hardware. The system analyzes files dynamically and provides feedback on the impact of the file. Cloud sandbox manages the analysis using Hillstone on the cloud, offering a service to detect unknown threats. It's easy to integrate and offers dynamic analysis supporting many types of files.

Integrated sensors have improved traffic inspection and now provide resilient east-west threat control
I believe Trellix Network Detection and Response can be improved by integrating machine learning into its detection response capabilities. Additionally, incorporating failover kits integrated into the sensors could be beneficial. It would be best if Trellix Network Detection and Response sensors were converted into a next-generation firewall with built-in capabilities for routing, switching, and Layer 7 functionality, as most next-generation firewalls today include these features. While Trellix Network Detection and Response sensors are highly capable, I think it would be advantageous to include features such as Layer 7 profiles, application profile filters, web filters, IDx, IP feature sets, signature detection features, and routing and switching capabilities all in one device. While the user interface of Trellix Network Detection and Response is very good, I suggest implementing a customizable dashboard. Additionally, there should be report generation for critical attacks and high alert severities, displayed graphically on the dashboard, and providing options to extract files in Excel format for better visibility.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Cloud sandbox allows customers to analyze email and text documents without purchasing any hardware."
"Trellix Network Detection and Response has positively impacted my organization by significantly reducing the time to detect as we also were experimenting with the automation systems."
"Over the thirteen years of using the product, we have not experienced a single compromise in our environment. During the COVID period, we faced numerous DDoS attacks, and the tool proved highly effective in mitigating these threats."
"It allows us to be more hands off in checking on emails and networking traffic, as we can set up a bunch of different alerts and have it alert us, giving us a better view of our network and our email environment."
"Trellix NDR provides an essential defense by automatically responding to network incidents that firewalls may not catch."
"The biggest impact Trellix Network Detection and Response has had on our organization is improved visibility across our environment and better confidence during investigations, as security analysts can understand suspicious behavior more clearly instead of depending solely on isolated alerts."
"The features that I find most valuable are the MIR (Mandiant Incident Response) for checks on our inbound security."
"Trellix NDR provides an essential defense by automatically responding to network incidents that firewalls may not catch."
"Trellix Network Detection and Response has positively impacted my organization by addressing performance issues, specifically by offloading heavy traffic inspection and SSL inspection through sensors due to the limitations of the firewall."
 

Cons

"For implementation, if the system can improve or provide more training, it would be better."
"Based on what we deployed, they should emphasize the application filtering and the web center. We need to look deeper into the SSM inspection. If we get the full solution with that module, we don't need to get the SSM database from another supplier."
"If you want to search the hashes in the environment, you need to put in IOCs one by one, making it a very hectic job."
"The customer service is not that good."
"There is a lot of room for Improvement in the offering, from cost to functionality. It is pretty straightforward to implement which is an advantage, however, it falls short in pricing, detection capabilities, and, most importantly, reporting and policy management."
"Certain features in Trellix Network Detection and Response, such as using AL-type commands, may initially pose a challenge for those unfamiliar with such commands. However, once users become accustomed to the system, it becomes easier to use."
"It is not a very secure product."
"The problem with FireEye is that they don't allow VM or sandbox customization. The user doesn't have control of the VMs that are inside the box. It comes from the vendor as-is. Some users like to have control of it. Like what type of Windows and what type of applications and they have zero control over this."
"The negative aspect is support."

"FireEye is comparable to other products, such as HX, but seems expensive. It may cause us to look at other products in the market."
"It's an expensive solution."
"The tool is a bit pricey."
"There are some additional services that I understand the vendor provides, but our approach was to package all of the features that we were looking to use into the product."
