Adds a layer of safety, especially for laptops operating in various environments

The tool's deployment is easy. HP Wolf Security's deployment was a swift process since it was initially compatible with Windows 10, the operating system on both machines. However, when I transitioned to Windows 11, I encountered minor issues that prompted me to delve deeper into Wolf Security to fine-tune security settings according to my preferences. While I mostly used default settings, there was an initial adjustment where I disabled the AI function related to malware. Currently, the system is running smoothly with no reported issues. Adjusting some settings raised concerns about compatibility between HP Wolf Security and Norton 360. Specifically, aspects of HP Wolf Security, such as the virtual machine component, intrigued me, but I hesitated due to potential conflicts. During my investigation, Windows 11 raised a flag, questioning the system's security settings with Norton 360 and HP Wolf Security. However, it seems that they coexist well without causing issues.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Now, instead of us having to go through that analysis, they actually give us a monthly report that shows us: "Here's what you got hit with, here's what would have happened, here are the forensics behind the attack," and, obviously, Bromium stopped it."

"I use HP Wolf Security to add a layer of safety, especially for laptops operating in various environments."

"The isolation feature is the most important because it prevents attacks."

"Our overall security posture has absolutely improved as a result of adding Bromium to our security stack. We continue to have less user impact through a significantly reduced amount of malware infections. It's become a non-event."

"It has prevented thousands of potential threats by encapsulating them within its own vSentry container, thus providing overall protection and integrity of the operating system."

"The feature that stands out the most is that when someone clicks on a link in an email... [if] that link is malicious and it has some malware or keylogger attached to it, when it opens up in that Bromium virtualized browser, there's no chance of it actually being on the machine and running, because as soon as they click that "X" in the upper right-hand side of the browser, everything just vanishes. That is an added plus."

"The most valuable feature is the process isolation because it simply stops malware from infecting the machines."

"We've been able to isolate and prevent malicious code from external email attachments and from downloaded internet files. Those are the two big areas that have really made an impact."

"The product's deployment phase is easy."

"I feel the anti-ransomware update is one of the tool's valuable features."

"The solution is very easy to use. Its interface is very simple, and you can build IOC's indicators. You can use your rules to detect these attacks because you can leverage threat intelligence. Y"

"Kaspersky Anti-Targeted Attack Platform is stable and runs all the time."

"The most valuable use is detailing metadata collection from the endpoint and network."

"The email security feature is really good."

Cons

"When you deploy, not only is the user asked to reboot their computer, they are also asked to wait for 20 minutes while it sits there and initializes. It definitely impacts the end-user. It takes time away from their day."

"Reporting is one of the shortcomings of the product. We do mine the data that's in there from a forensics perspective... It becomes very difficult because you have to spend a lot of time digging through the volumes of data. Reporting is absolutely the biggest shortcoming."

"After a major release, there's always a lot of "dust settling." You have to work through all those issues and then you're fine for a while. The problem is, it's stable, it's fine, until the next major release comes out. Then you go back into the cycle again of uncertainty, instability, working through issues until they have patched and remediated all the problems that you're having. It's not unlike any other vendor though"

"The tool behaves differently when I ported to Windows 11."

"Room for improvement would be keeping up with the rate of change, specifically on Windows platforms. There are a lot of updates that come out for Microsoft Windows operating systems and the Bromium product needs to be able to keep up quickly with those updates and all the browser updates that are coming out. It's hard to do, but that's really where they need to be more responsive because we end up with problems and then we have to call support to get patches, etc."

"Initial setup was complex. There were many configurations that needed to be worked out with the vendor. The setup required hands-on assistance from Bromium."

"Initially, when we came in contact with Bromium a few years ago, it had a nice threat analyst, or a LAVA Pop, which is what they used to call it. Once it detected malware, it would show us the malware's path... I don't see that on the computers now. We only get to see that in the console. I would like to still see that on the individual machines because when we go out to look at a machine, we don't necessarily have access to the console."

"They need to improve the compatibility with other applications and its stability. It works well with attacks, but it doesn't work well with all software on the clients. There is a lot of troubleshooting and a lot of things that need to be tuned to make it work and not break things."

More HP Wolf Security cons

"The backup and recovery features of the product are not good."

"In some of the places I have come across, even though they use Kaspersky, the ransomware enters their system."

"The solution lacks cloud integrations."

"I think the tool is still not really good enough for integration compared to other products."

"The blind spot or gap in the platform is network analysis functionality."

"Kaspersky Anti-Targeted Attack Platform is not a good product. We had problems with endpoints and the solution did not detect it. We didn't get any alerts about the attack."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product came as a bundle with the machine."

"The product's pricing is a good value. We only run it on our internet-facing workstations, we don't run it on everything in our environment. We are very selective. Some organizations may want to consider doing something like that to reduce their license count."

"Pricing is reasonable."

"I think the pricing is a good value. All of these security products are always going to be very expensive, but I don't think Bromium is unreasonable. I think Bromium is decently priced. It’s a tiered licensing platform. The more you buy, the cheaper gets per unit, and I think their tiers are very well defined. I think they're fair."

"The pricing is very fair compared to the competition. The licensing is straightforward."

"Kaspersky is one of the cheaper solutions."

"The solution has competitive pricing."

"Kaspersky Anti-Targeted Attack Platform is cheap."

Overview

HP Wolf Security is a comprehensive cybersecurity solution that bolsters your organization's cyber-resilience on multiple fronts. With its full-stack security approach, it ensures layered protection from hardware to the cloud, providing a robust defense against cyber threats. HP Wolf Security introduces endpoint isolation, a cutting-edge feature that effectively halts threats that may go unnoticed by Next-Generation Antivirus (NGAV) and Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) systems. Moreover, it extends its security coverage to printers, equipping them with advanced detection and self-healing capabilities to further safeguard your digital ecosystem. This integrated solution streamlines IT and security risk management, resulting in fewer alerts and false positives, and reduces the time and effort required for endpoint incident analysis and remediation. Notably, HP Wolf Security prioritizes productivity, allowing you to manage risk without disrupting the user experience, enabling worry-free work from anywhere, and offering rapid IT disaster recovery at scale.

Today’s cybercriminals constantly design unique and innovative methods of penetration and compromise. To avoid perimeter prevention technologies they use social engineering, non-malware and supply chain attacks to operate under the radar of security designed to catch ‘bad’ traces. It’s not enough to just ‘know’ what’s bad or dangerous – enterprises need to understand what’s normal, and use AI-driven techniques that simplify and automate this process. Targeted Attack Analyzer is a machine learning engine that involves self-learning to establish the baseline of normal, legitimate activities of an entire network. Through continuous network telemetry collection it finds deviations, detects suspicious activities and predicts further malicious actions at the initial stages of multilayered attacks.
