Weekly insights and risk analysis facilitate informed security decisions
I appreciate the weekly insights Zafran provides, which include critical topics for networks and IT security, allowing us to evaluate which insights apply to our environment. The organization score feature is valuable to keep the leadership team updated on how our infrastructure fares security-wise. The applicable risk level versus base risk level feature is beneficial because prior to Zafran, we only used the base risk level, but now understand that risk depends on the asset itself. Zafran is an excellent tool.

It improves the detection speed, but it could be more customizable
They need to stop changing Vision One once a week. They're in a hurry to change things so badly and so fast that I can't find where stuff is half the time, which is a challenge sometimes. I've given one piece of feedback to their product guys. One thing that they're trying to make is a SIEM. It's a product where you input all the logs from your tools, and it creates additional insights into how things look. They've been kind of playing the "me too" game on that, even though that's not what I bought the product for. They have a new gateway where I can take my firewall of email logs and send it over there. In theory, it's supposed to do a more comprehensive evaluation of all my stuff to improve that risk index score. I'm not impressed with it, and I've told them as much. I feel if you're good at something, you should keep working on that and not try to be all the things to all the people. I bought a different email solution even though it would have been 10 times easier to just stay with their email solution because they aren't great at it. They are great at other things, but they're playing the "me too" game with some of their products. Their competitors do this, so they should be doing this, too. They need to pick a product and keep being good at that. If they're going to roll new things out, they should do it but do it right. They have a button to isolate an endpoint because it looks bad, but it doesn't usually work. I've had no chance to argue with the product guys to show them examples of how their button doesn't work. You think it does, but it doesn't work in a real environment. That can be a challenge sometimes. I can see in the data showing what is a false positive. But it doesn't save me time helping them figure out how to fix the problem in their engine. It can help me identify it as a false positive, but it doesn't apply that consistently. It will ignore the false positive for that device, but if they start detecting a false positive on Apple devices, I have eight thousand Apple devices and get 8,000 alerts. I can tell that specific false positive, but it doesn't learn from that particularly well. We use the executive dashboards, but I don't find them particularly useful. One is the ability to customize. That has gotten a little better, and it'll be better in the future. Most of what they have on there are data points that are generic and not particularly actionable. That's why it's called an executive dashboard. Executives want to see if we are secure, but it's hard for me to find out why our attack surface risk went down by x percentage. I don't know. It says that on the dashboard, but it doesn't give me specific details about why. I find it confuses my executives, and it's not useful for me because it doesn't give me things to work on. It will give me generic things on the executive dashboard like you have a thousand accounts with an old password. Those are big generic things, but I also can't tell it that our password policy is different from what your automatic detection model means, and I don't have a problem with that, so quit lowering my risk score. The risk score is useless. In theory, it's based on the random intelligence they're getting from their various customers. I'm in K-12 education, so they have a decent amount of K-12 customers, but it's a subset, and the baseline of what's common in K-12 education is not the same. There's not enough data to make that particularly clean or useful. Vision One is not custom, and that's part of my beef. That index score is based on whatever random report they're looking at from their data sources at any given moment in time. It's nice, but I'd rather have one that's based on your particular circumstances. Instead, it's saying that the number one attack threat surface for school districts is email phishing. It's too generic.

Reliable with no false-positives and helpful support
There's a lot of improvement possible, however, most of it is in the details. I personally like the concept, as it's pretty straightforward and the product is not trying to overload functionality. It's a clean and straightforward approach. You know what you get. Most of the improvements are detail improvements. They're pretty open to future requests as well, so we send them a lot of suggestions. For example, at the moment, they have something called Battleground. That's a visualization of the network, and it's a visualization of the attack paths that are possible. The program uses so-called scenarios, and we say, "Okay, I'm watching traffic for maybe 24 hours," and then you get a result for that scenario, what happens in that time with what the attack paths are, et cetera. The result of the same scenario yesterday or tomorrow may be different as something might change. In that, one of the things I'm currently missing, which is on the list to be added, is some kind of diff visualization. For example, showing a two-screen split of activity. On the left side of the screen, that's how it was yesterday; on the right side, that's how it is today; and here are the differences. We'd like to see a cheaper price.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Zafran is an excellent tool."
"Zafran has become an indispensable tool in our cybersecurity arsenal."
"We are very impressed with the single pane of glass visibility that Trend Micro XDR provides."
"The setup is fairly simple."
"It has good vulnerability protection."
"I like XDR's workbench feature and observed attack technique. It generates an alert once certain conditions are met. For example, let's say there's a threat called malicious.exe being deployed on your system. It will generate an alert with information like the file path, location, hash, etc. You also see a relational matrix showing how that file was executed and which processes were installed."
"The workbench alerts provide valuable insights into attack chains and relevant information, while Observer techniques give a comprehensive overview of ongoing activities."
"XDR provided a much more deep view into what is actually happening."
"What I like the most about Trend Micro XDR is that the detection and response domain extends to the network. It goes beyond the endpoint and includes data about the network which lets you pinpoint patient zero as well as the root cause of the attack."
"It helps us with investigations."
"The platform's most valuable feature is attack simulation."
"What I personally like very much, from my experience, is that it is very reliable."
 

Cons

"Initially, we were somewhat concerned about the scalability of Zafran due to our large asset count and the substantial amount of information we needed to process."
"The automation capabilities on-premises could be improved, as we currently have to manually activate servers and push policies."
"Vision One generates numerous false positives, forcing unnecessary investigations and highlighting a need for improved filtering options."
"It would be better if it were more user-friendly. It would also be better if the implementation were more straightforward."
"The solution could always be made to be more secure."
"It would be great if there were Trend Micro products that could enhance the security of these devices, either as part of our product or in some other way integrated into our offering."
"The only downside to Trend Vision One is its complexity."
"Trend Vision One has some usability issues."
"The area for improvement is mobile security. We have just finished a proof of concept for Zero Trust Secure Access. We withdrew from this PoC because it does not have that many points for proxy across Europe. Our organization is across Europe... At this time, they are only located in Germany and the UK."
"XM Cyber could identify all areas of vulnerability. They could expand the identification span for different areas."
"We'd like to see a cheaper price."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"I find it to be a cost-efficient platform."
"I do not have much visibility to it. It is definitely not a cheap product, but to my knowledge, it is out there with the big wigs in the industry, such as CrowdStrike, SentinelOne, and other EDR/XDR vendors. I had heard, and found out eventually, that their sales teams are very flexible, as more sales teams are."
"Trend Vision One offers a competitive price-to-value ratio."
"The pricing of the solution is okay. There is a need for me to look into the new pricing plan introduced by the solution recently."
"Vision One's pricing is extremely competitive. They're probably the lowest-cost provider that has this feature set."
"Trend Micro XDR is reasonably priced for its value, comparable to other products like VMware Carbon Black."
"The pricing for Trend Vision One is reasonable."
"Trend Vision One is cost-effective because it offers detailed reporting and environment control features."
"We have to pay standard licensing fees."
