The Deep Instinct Prevention Platform is highly valued for its ability to provide a prevent-first approach to cybersecurity, allowing for the immediate blocking of threats and reducing strain on security operations centers. It offers compatibility with various IT environments and assets, as well as deep learning-based prevention that eliminates the need for constant updates.
The platform also provides protection against zero-day malware and ransomware and minimizes device performance impact with fewer updates and no weekly scans. Additionally, the platform's prevention features, including conservative policies and the ability to easily tweak and customize them, save time and offer peace of mind. The inline processing and preprocessing capabilities are praised for effectively detecting and intercepting files before execution, while also reducing false positives. The behavioral analysis feature is highlighted for its ability to identify various threat vectors, and the platform's ease of use and intuitive console make it a preferred choice.
- "The product offers integration capabilities and is also easy to use."
- "I like the dashboard. It looks very simple."
- "Deep Instinct was a strategic complement to our Open XDR platform."
Some areas of improvement for the Deep Instinct Prevention Platform include:
- Providing more logging details to understand why certain files are blocked.
- Enhancing the platform's administration and navigation, especially for inexperienced technicians.
- Adding more levels of filtering to prevent malware, adware, phishing attempts, and ransomware.
- Improving the interface by addressing smaller areas of improvement and making it more descriptive and valuable.
- Adding a forensic piece to the platform, allowing for easier root-cause analysis and kill-chain analysis.
- Enhancing logging capabilities to capture more thorough information for troubleshooting.
- Making license clean-up and management easier.
- Providing additional training for administrators.
- Improving the documentation to be more comprehensive.
- "If the tool was able to provide fine-tuning capabilities from the product's end depending on the environment of its user, then it would be a good improvement in the solution."
- "There's an issue in the installation process where you can't install it unless you disable the built-in Windows Bitdefender antivirus. So, you have to manually disable Microsoft Bitdefender in order to install Deep Instinct. So, that makes it impossible to do a network rollout unless you manually visit each computer, which is ridiculous."
- "Due to the nature of deep learning, it’s sometimes difficult to determine why the AI model has blocked a specific file, although this has improved over time."
