Plenty of functionality, scans are quick, and light on resources
Kaspersky Cybersecurity Services can improve browsing security. When I'm browsing some sites, they don't allow the solution to open which would keep it secure. There's an issue with the secure mode, which they put on browsers, such as IE, Edge, or Firefox. In an upcoming release, Kaspersky Cybersecurity Services should add Siddhartha: multi-factor authentication. We then will not need to use the feature from somewhere else, such as Okta. Additionally, there is room for the solution to mature because of how threats are evolving, such as DDoS attacks, they need to learn how to cope.

Has a user-friendly setup process, but its query language needs improvement
The product has valuable features for the EDR section. We can easily isolate affected machines in the network. It helps us prevent the spreading of malware or ransomware further Secureworks Taegis ManagedXDR's query language and stability need improvement. Additionally, its price could be better…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable features of Kaspersky Cybersecurity Services are the light use of resources, plenty of functionality and scans are quick."
"The solution definitely made us way more aware of the possibilities out there."
"The most valuable feature is the fast alerting and response time."
"There are some patent pending detectors within the platform that provides a lot of value."
"The initial setup was very straight forward."
"We can easily isolate affected machines in the network."
"Securworks' threat intel seems pretty decent, and they integrate with several solutions we have, such as Azure AD, so all our Microsoft 365 stuff is covered."
"The most valuable feature is the support. The support chat. It's always connecting to people. And you open the chat, and it's not about that automated response. It's actually a human being that responds to you."
"It provides more visibility and more control over endpoints. It reduces the noise. It clears things and only shows things that are really important. It only shows those things that need to be looked at or need to be investigated further. Other similar solutions give you a lot of alerts and other things, but Secureworks gives you a defined or less noisy view so that you can work or focus on things that are important in terms of investigation, response, and remediation."
 

Cons

"Kaspersky Cybersecurity Services can improve browsing security. When I'm browsing some sites, they don't allow the solution to open which would keep it secure. There's an issue with the secure mode, which they put on browsers, such as IE, Edge, or Firefox."
"Tamper-proofing or tamper protection is still pending in Secureworks. Tamper protection will make it more secure. If I'm an admin of a device, I can uninstall an agent without the knowledge of the security or Secureworks admin. If someone gets hold of one endpoint with admin credentials, he can remove anything, and an organization will lose visibility. They need to work on providing more visibility across endpoints. A couple of times it has happened that the cloak agent is there, but it did not get activated, or there were some issues. The machine was restarted, but the cloak agent didn't run. In such cases, you have to troubleshoot. It is a big issue if a cyber attack is happening, and your machine is rebooted, but the events are not captured."
"The integration with the Carbon Black sensor could be better. ManagedXDR doesn't seem to know how to extract the forensic data from an endpoint that was quarantined by Carbon Black."
"Dell Secureworks could improve its integration with other third-party solutions."
"Secureworks Taegis ManagedXDR's query language and stability need improvement."
"The deployment could definitely be improved."
"This solution could be improved with a higher degree of automation such as automated emails, triggers and defining the severity of the cases."
"In the next release of this solution, I would like to see file integrity monitoring."
"In terms of ROI, I'd be surprised if there is any investment return on the SIM."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The cost of Kaspersky Cybersecurity Services is good. If you buy a subscription it can extend to some of your other devices."
"Secureworks Taegis ManagedXDR is very expensive and could be more cost-effective."
"The Red Cloak agent is free."
"The pricing of Dell Secureworks is very reasonable."
"The pricing for this solution is reasonable. One agent costs approximately 270 dirhams/70 USD for one year. There is a reduction in cost per licence as the number of licences used increases."
"It is expensive but there is no better product than this."
"The price is kind of on par. The licensing was comparable to other solutions. It's not particularly high or low."
"Initially, the cost was going to be something around $160 or $170. And eventually, I think they brought it down to $110 and they also threw in some endpoint protection platforms."
