Worth the money, fantastic communication, and fast service with an average response time of about four minutes on an alert
This is my third SOC. I have never had anybody react as well. So, it's hard for me to provide something that they could do better because I'm really happy with them. I just signed another three-year contract with them. I don't find any downside to them, but if I have to put one, it would be consistent manpower or staffing. The only area where the solution can be improved is going to be with people. As they grow, they are struggling with the same thing that every other company is, which is getting talent and getting that talent to stay, but they've just revised their tiering system to go from a flat analyst and manager to a three-tier solution where it goes through two or three before it gets elevated. That seems to have worked out well, so if one level misses it, the next one picks it up, and it works out fine. Consistent staffing is the only challenge they have because when you're hiring level-one analysts, you go through them pretty quickly. You'll probably hire them at 50K or 55K, and after they do it for a year, they find out they can make 85K somewhere else, and they bounce. So, their turnover is a little high, but that's it.

Quarantines and removes threats from the network
The most important aspect is a EC2 deployment which is a remote deployment done for new customers using Sophos. Approximately ninety-five percent of EC2 deployment is automated, requiring only a review or customization for the customer's needs. Another key feature is the centralized control of updates, allowing for scheduling any interaction with the endpoint. Additionally, the new platform and system operations, along with IOCs, are updated daily. Sophos has a very good policy at good prices. Since I have a local contact with the salespeople, they provide me discounts. It's very stable and competitive. When the customers have budget, they can opt for CrowdStrike. However, when the customers have budget constraints on daily servers, and when the customers prefer to integrate mobile platforms with different technologies, they can use this one technology. Overall, I rate the solution an eight out of ten.

Good for endpoint detection and response, network detection, email security, and mobile threat detection
From a purely technological standpoint, Trend Micro is doing very well. They're recognized as a market leader according to Gartner ratings, and here in Oman, they hold a dominant market share of 80-85%. However, there's feedback about two areas for improvement: support mechanisms and pricing. For a market leader with high Gartner ratings, their pricing seems very expensive compared to similar products from Symantec and Trusted Security Solutions. This can push some customers towards those options. As a result, Trend Micro XDR is primarily adopted by large companies with significant budgets and a deep understanding of the technology. They can implement Trend Micro across their entire infrastructure, from endpoints to servers to mainframes, achieving comprehensive security. This makes Trend Micro XDR, especially attractive to oil and gas vertical industries like BFSI (banking, financial services), where financial security is paramount. However, for SMEs (small and medium-sized enterprises) or newer companies with budget constraints, the product can be quite costly. That's my overall feedback.
