A tool with an easy initial setup phase that can be centrally managed by users
What needs to be improved is what my company sends to Kaspersky's team when we are working with it, and then they work on it, which is why we always have updates to take care of the bugs and all those things. You can't have one thing in the solution that needs to be improved. The solution is affordable. For the solution itself, while you are working with it, you come across stuff, that Kaspersky's network helps you deal with since you can send your stuff to Kaspersky's team, and they have access to certain reports, and based on the reports and what what are we doing, the solution is always worked on, so that it can be made the best and efficient application. On a daily basis, the tool is being improved, and I am okay with it. Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Business Select is automated. The cloud application for Kaspersky is automated. For the solution needed for individual systems, Kaspersky provides you with a platform that provides internet security. With Kaspersky, you have a platform that allows you to access www.kaspersky.com and see the systems that you have worked on in the past. If you need to do anything with your individual machines indirectly, you can manage it through a centralized system. The solution's automation capabilities is an area where certain improvements are required.

Beneficial single unified dashboard, good native application integration, and high availability
My advice to those wanting to implement RSA NetWitness Network is they have to first do a little due diligence, such as the exact requirement based on their needs. That will give them a direction for their investment because otherwise, the bill of material or bill of quantity (BOQ) may be higher side. It is important to do good due intelligence on the environment, see the exact requirement, and then go ahead with the solution. The solution is perfectly stable. I rate RSA NetWitness Network a nine out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I find the solution to be very stable in terms of security and protection of the data."
"Kaspersky Total Security directly detects if there are any threats on the internet or when I use a USB stick."
"The solution is efficient."
"It is a stable product."
"It has advanced features for detecting malware and ensuring customer safety."
"The software is easy to install."
"The most effective feature is its scanning. When they scan the viruses, they come back with the records quite fast. They make sure that they rectify."
"The solution is useful for protecting laptops."
"It's a scalable solution. We have around five to eight customers using RSA NetWitness Endpoint, and we hope to increase the number of users."
"It is stable. We have been using it for some time, without any issues."
"RSA NetWitness does market analysis in a more granular form. It gives you full visibility."
"The most valuable feature is the way it captures the traffic, and it contains every detail of the communication."
"The log correlation is good."
"Ability to isolate the machine when there are malicious files."
"It is very easy to use, and its usability is great. The use cases are also very easy. The visualizations of the use cases are magnificent. You cannot find this in any other solution. From my point of view, it is great."
"The stability of the RSA NetWitness Endpoint is very good."
 

Cons

"Enhancing the encryption code, particularly in relation to ransomware would be a great addition for future use."
"There is room for improving security."
"Kaspersky Total Security should be easier to manage and improve user interaction. Resetting often requires some experience, which can be a problem for generic users. Web users also encounter some issues that should be improved."
"Kaspersky Total Security’s stability and performance need improvement."
"The tool could be cheaper."
"There could be an option to upgrade the license online without necessarily installing it physically in the system."
"The solution's automation capabilities is an area where certain improvements are required."
"Kaspersky Total Security is an expensive solution, and its pricing could be improved."
"This solution needs an upgrade in reporting. I have heard from RSA that they are working on this, but as of yet it is not available."
"The solution lacks a reporting engine."
"We would like to see the hunting and investigation features of this solution improved, in order to provide better visibility of issues."
"Its price could be improved. It is an expensive product. Its training is also too expensive. It would be great if they can have a better pricing scheme for the training."
"RSA NetWitness Network could improve on integration with non-native application integration."
"Threat detection could be better."
"The deployment process is complex. I don't know why, but this solution will suddenly stop working. Logs stop coming. Often, one thing or another stops working. Most of the time, one of my team members is working with troubleshooting and working with technical support. Log passing is also one of the biggest challenge."
"The threat intelligence could improve in RSA NetWitness Endpoint."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I like this solution due to its cost-free nature"
"Users need to pay a licensing fee for the solution, which is neither cheap nor expensive."
"We purchase the product’s yearly license."
"Kaspersky Total Security is an expensive solution."
"There is a need to renew the license on an annual basis."
"We have a yearly license, and it's not expensive."
"We pay around $30 to $35 for the solution yearly."
"Kaspersky Total Security is not an expensive solution."
"We are on a three-year contract to use RSA NetWitness Network."
"The pricing is not very economical. It is a quite costly product for India. One thing is that when you purchase it, you have to purchase a module separately."
"They can easily adjust if you have the requirements which are required. If you have a budget cut or a budget constraint, they can bend."
"It is an expensive product."
"I do not have any opinion on the pricing or licensing of the product."
"With RSA, there is flexibility in choosing the service, products, and the range that meets your requirement, as well as they are flexible in terms of pricing."
"NetWitness Endpoint is less costly than its competitors, but it offers fewer features."
"The price of the solution depends on the environment. If the environment is large then it will cost more. However, the larger the environment with more endpoints, you will receive an increased discount. If the environment is very small, then you might think it is expensive. It is always better to buy in bulk to receive a discount. The minimum number of assets is usually 500, with discounts on 1000 and 2000."
