Decreases the false positives but storage model complexity hampers efficiency
I recommend it to my customers, but I'm a salesman. I am not implementing it myself It decreases the false positives, so it will decrease the time consumed by the operation team to work on Splunk. The most effective one is the integration with other vendors. This is the most attractive one.…

Stable, accurate, and helps prevent attacks
I'm using the latest version of Trend Micro TippingPoint Threat Protection System. My company keeps upgrading the version. Deploying and maintaining Trend Micro TippingPoint Threat Protection System only requires one person. A thousand people use the solution within my company. There's no plan to increase its usage. My advice to anyone looking to use Trend Micro TippingPoint Threat Protection System is to have a consultant ready for the complexity of deployment. My rating for the solution is 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

"The most valuable feature is being able to take data and put it into other systems so that we could see the output, and to see where we need to apply our focus."
"The solution's most valuable feature is Splunk queries, which allow us to query the logs and analyze the attack vectors."
"It's straightforward in terms of configuration and troubleshooting and log management and monitoring as well. These are the edge points in addition to it being a modular solution where you can capitalize on your current licenses with extra licensing models, which can match the customer's business requirement and it can help the customer to design or to actually plan for their own roadmap."
"The most effective one is the integration with other vendors."
"Because of some of the visualizations that we utilize, we are able to understand strange, unusual traffic on our networks."
"The solution is definitely scalable."
"It's easily scalable."
"Splunk is more user-friendly than some competing solutions we tried."
"The technical support on offer is very good."
"It integrates easily."
"The most valuable feature is the central command center, where we can control and manage the solution."
"I would rate TTPS's stability eight out of ten."
"The solution's IDS functionality filters the traffic and blocks malware by blocking the connections."
"The monitoring is the most valuable feature."
"What I like about Trend Micro TippingPoint Threat Protection System is that it works okay. I don't have time to mess with the tool most of the time because I have way too many tasks to do, but Trend Micro TippingPoint Threat Protection System tells you when there's a problem, then it blocks the problem, so that's what I like most about it."
"The IPS signatures and the IPS database that are given are much better than what is commonly available."
 

Cons

"The price of Splunk UBA is too high."
"The correlation engine should have persistent and definable rules."
"The ability to do more complicated data investigation would be a welcome addition for pros, though the functionality now gives most people what they need."
"I would like improved downward integration with other tools such as McAfee and other GCP solutions."
"In the future I would like to see simplified statistics and analytical threats."
"We want to have an automated system for bot hunting that enables us to detect anomalies predictively based on historical data. It would be helpful if Splunk included process mining as an alternative option. We have a threat workflow, but it would be useful if we could supplement that with some process mining capabilities over time."
"It would be good if the solution had an analytics tool that allowed us to analyze the data without writing specific queries."
"The initial setup was complex because some of the configurations that we required needed customization."
"The solution should provide the possibility to mix traffic and the traffic's geographical source to have improved functionality."
"We need more integration. It would be good if Azure IPS and TippingPoint IPS and other products from Trend Micro like their DBI and IWSVA could talk between each other."
"It takes a lot of time before you're connected to an engineer, so an area for improvement in Trend Micro TippingPoint Threat Protection System is the response time of its technical support team."
"There is room for improvement in customer service and support."
"I find Trend Micro TippingPoint Threat Protection System a bit clunky, and updating it can be a pain in the neck because you need to do it from time to time, so this is what needs to be improved in it. I would also rather have an all-in-one system that does intrusion detection, protection, web filtering, and also serves as a firewall, and my company is moving to an all-in-one solution, but I'm unsure of how soon that's going to be. Trend Micro TippingPoint Threat Protection System also doesn't have enough bandwidth to handle the required traffic within my company, so it's going to be replaced."
"An area for improvement in Trend Micro TippingPoint Threat Protection System is the complexity of its interface."
"TTPS is a bit behind in visuals, the UI, and some data elements."
"Price is a significant factor that requires attention to enhance the popularity of Tipping Point among mid-sized data centres. Currently, Tipping Point is primarily adopted by sizable data centres, and smaller defenders might find it financially challenging to acquire. Recognizing this, efforts are underway to potentially introduce diverse models with varying capacities. This adjustment aims to ensure that a broader range of data sizes can benefit from the solution. Also, the continuous evolution of Tipping Point is evident in its features, particularly the personalized dashboard and related aspects."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I am not aware of the price, but it is expensive."
"Pricing varies based on the packages you choose and the volume of your usage."
"My biggest complaint is the way they do pricing... You can never know the pricing for next year. Every single time you adjust to something new, the price goes up. It's impossible to truly budget for it. It goes up constantly."
"I hope we can increase the free license to be more than 5 gig a day. This would help people who want to introduce a POC or a demo license for the solution."
"The licensing costs is around 10,000 dollars."
"There are additional costs associated with the integrator."
"On a scale from one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the solution's pricing a seven out of ten."
"Trend Micro TippingPoint Threat Protection System is an expensive product."
"It's an expensive product."
"The price is in a market-suitable price range. So it's not expensive, but it's also not cheap either. The price is a strong point."
"TTPS is reasonably priced."
"TippingPoint is not as expensive as Palo Alto but it's not as cheap as Fortigate."
"We pay for Trend Micro TippingPoint Threat Protection System yearly. The cost increases if you add more users."
"It is an expensive solution and I would rate it three out of ten."
