Trend Micro Deep Security Reviews

The platform's IP detection feature is particularly effective in identifying connections to our servers.

There could be a centralized management server to oversee all platform functionalities.

We have been using Trend Micro Deep Security for approximately three years. 

I would rate the product's scalability a seven out of ten.

The scalability was limited; the product did not detect as many behavioral patterns as CrowdStrike, which provided more comprehensive insights.

The technical support experience was good, but there was room for improvement in terms of response time.

Positive

We decided to switch to a more AI-based solution from Trend Micro to address the rise in ransomware attacks better and reduce the number of servers needed for management.

While the pricing was on the higher side, the manageability and comprehensive alerts provided by the product justified the cost. I paid approximately 26,000 per license. There is an additional cost involved for support services. 

I compared the product to McAfee.

The product's intrusion prevention capabilities were beneficial as they allowed me to block unauthorized connections and potential threats at both the server and firewall levels.

I rate Trend Micro Deep Security a nine out of ten. 

Trend Micro Deep Security protects our organization from threats. Trend Micro has kept us compliant with PCI and PPA.

Support and threat prevention are the most valuable features of this solution.

I have been using Trend Micro Deep Security for five years.

The solution is stable. Trend Micro gets threat intelligence and is always up-to-date with all cybersecurity threats zero-day. Updates are provided through our email. If anything needs to be adjusted on our system, or their product, they will advise us right away.

Trend Micro is scalable if you have the budget for it. All of our 2,500 employees are covered with Trend Micro Deep Security.

The support from Trend Micro Deep Security is good. The company has a good knowledge base where we can troubleshoot any issues. We also have a support portal with them where we can raise issues that we can't solve on our own. This includes on-call support with them in case the issue needs to be resolved urgently.

Positive

Prior to using Trend Micro, we were using Sophos.

The initial setup of the product was straightforward. All you need to do is install the firmware, ensure the firewall connections are open, and you are done. 

It took about one month for us to deploy Trend Micro Deep Security. We had an integrator deploy the pilot of the first 30. After the pilot, our team deployed the rest.

If you need an additional 10 or 20 licenses, you will need to pay additional fees.

This product is one of the leaders in terms of endpoint protection, server protection, and network protection. They provide good support, and it is easy to deploy. They are scalable, and the threat intelligence is very good. They stay up to date with what is happening in the cyber world.

Personally, I like anti-malware and integrity monitoring. The anti-malware has its own behavioral monitoring and machine learning. It detects all species and objects in the server or the file integrity monitoring. If there are any changes on the server side, they will alert you. I would like to see these tools as part of Trend Micro Deep Security.

I would rate Trend Micro Deep Security a nine out of ten overall.

We are using it for NetSpark, and I work for two organizations where I'm using this tool. In both, we are scaling our networks and endpoints, analyzing our traffic, and analyzing the endpoints and security.

In one organization where I started, we were using a SIEM solution and facing challenges like a lack of complete information. Deep Security has helped us to know where intrusion started, penetrated, and went within our network, thereby improving security.

I appreciate the complete visibility of information, including endpoints and detailed tracing from origin to navigation. It helps us detect and protect against network penetrations at the specific point of intrusion.

New patterns need improvement, as some new data access points are challenging to investigate and allow entry without detection. Improving this area and providing complete visibility would be beneficial.

I have been using this product for nearly eleven months.

I would rate the stability as eight out of ten.

I rate technical support a nine.

Positive

I previously used QRadar. Compared to QRadar, Trend Micro improves quickly based on feedback and provides more comprehensive solutions.

In one premises, we deployed it on the cloud, which was challenging at the start, while on another it was set on TensorFlow, which was comparatively easy.

Their team was very helpful during the deployment process. Trend Micro's team was particularly cooperative.

It has saved us time, money, and resources. We saved nearly forty percent of our time previously spent on manual investigations.

The pricing is very fair, although there are other cheaper options. Due to our limitations, Trend Micro was our best option.

I would rate it an eight out of ten.

I work in a finance-based company, so what we look at would be an anti-malware suite to inspect IPS policies, firewalls, and other such stuff.

The most valuable features of the solution are the log inspection and the IPS, which are the most effective compared to other tools.

Log inspection completely reviews all the logs on the machine rather than me going and investigating. I can take a quick look into the issues with Trend Micro Deep Security.

The tool needs to be made more user-friendly. The dashboard is there, but the solution's false positives are a bit higher.

I have been using Trend Micro Deep Security for three years. I am a customer of the solution.

It is a stable solution. Stability-wise, I rate the solution a six to seven out of ten.

I have no complaints about the scalability of the product. Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a seven out of ten.

If I speak about the support directly from Trend Micro's team, I rate the technical support as five out of ten.

If I consider the support that I get from Trend Micro's sales engineering team, I would rate the support as a seven or eight. The support team does not reply, and if they do, they provide a response after a week, even if you say that we urgently need their help. The local team in my country, which is the engineering team from the sales side, contacted us and asked whether they could help us in any way with the ticket raised from our end.

Neutral

The product's initial setup phase was super easy. Trend Micro's team was there to support us when we were setting it up. The sales team and sales engineering team were also helpful.

If ten means very easy setup and one means difficult, I rate the setup phase a seven to eight.

Within business hours, the solution was deployed in two days, considering that there was a need to set up policies and servers.

With Trend Micro's virtual patching in place, the IPS rules are quite effective, so I don't have to patch my systems right away. Trend Micro has been quite aggressive in releasing the IPS rules, which protect our servers from any such incidents.

I wouldn't think that I have seen any reduction in security-related costs since implementing the solution. I have not seen a reduction in the pricing of the security suite, given the fact that the risks have been increasing worldwide or at a global level. We have to put more money to protect ourselves.

I would not blame Trend Micro for not ensuring that users see the cost reductions. Considering the many developments in the general market, the tool has to stay updated.

The compliance management in Trend Micro Deep Security has not very much improved the security audits, especially since we are using the on-prem version. With the on-prem version, you don't get much of the compliance management part. The SaaS version is quite different and we are looking to switch to it.

The fact that Trend Micro Deep Security has integrated everything with Trend Vision One is something that is more than sufficient.

We are using the tool's on-prem version, so I don't think I have seen anything related to AI.

I have not seen anything related to automation in the tool.

The suite is better, so when you are buying a product, make sure that you squeeze everything into one since that is where the real money lies.

I think the major value for my company does not come from Trend Micro Deep Security but from Trend Micro Vision One, XDR Telemetry, and everything else.

If a person has completed the integration, you don't have to look at the different modules of Trend Micro Deep Security, as you can just log into Trend Vision One and do all the XDR analysis.

I rate the tool an eight out of ten.

Our company uses Trend Micro for anti-malware support on servers and user PCs. Its normal anti-virus, file integrity monitoring, and threat prevention modules are also active in our systems.

The overall vision and execution of the vendor are really good. The solution has a low footprint and does not have a lot of impact on the host. The reporting mechanism is also good, and at any given point in time, we can see how many endpoints are compliant. The product support is also good.

The solution should focus on the EDR part and probably have an integrated data leak prevention module as well.

In future releases, the solution should provide one agent who takes care of EDR, end-point security, DLP, and application control.

I have been using Trend Micro Deep Security for more than five years.

It is a stable solution. I would rate its stability a ten out of ten.

The solution is scalable. I would rate its scalability a ten out of ten. Currently, the solution is being used by around 4,000 users in our organization.

The customer service and support team is good.

Positive

The initial setup is straightforward and only a matter of a couple of clicks. Once you have a design in place, deployment is not a challenge. In terms of time– one part goes into solution deployment and the other into solution adaptation. Solution deployment does not take much time; solution adaptation does.

The solution was deployed by consultants. I think one professional from the system integrator or the OEM and one in-house resource are enough for this deployment.

Moreover, it is just like any other IT solution in terms of maintenance. Since it is installed on a server host, whatever general maintenance is required for that host is what’s needed—just general IT maintenance. We have an in-house team of IT and security engineers who take care of the maintenance.

Just like in any other IT solution. General IT maintenance, we have an in-house team of IT and security engineers who take care of the maintenance.

Before deploying a solution, new users must refer to market research. For companies like ours, we select top-of-the-line products. Although this is the best product suiting our requirements, the decision should be based on individual evaluation.

Overall, I rate the solution an eight out of ten.

We are using Deep Security specifically for virtual patching of the virtual disks. The average customer for this is typically a government agency, and they're employing it on critical servers and services. It is usually on a database server, especially a purpose-built aggregation server. Unlike a web server or something like that, these servers aren't generally publicly connected. We have about 20 Deep Security customers, including most of the bigger banks. 

Deep Security provides us with a lot of reassurance about security threats. You don't have to worry about a patch not being there in the software. You're confident that all the patches and vulnerabilities are taken care of.

I think more work could be done on Deep Security's ability to handle dynamic threat scenarios. 

We have been using Trend Micro Deep Security for the last three years.

Deep Security is a highly stable product.

Deep Security is scalable. 

Setting up Deep Security isn't that complicated. The entire process takes 90 days, including a proof of concept to demo the product in the customer's environment and show them what it can do. Typically, it takes about 90 days to close a deal. We have 15 members on our team.

We have different people to handle the implementation. Our technical team gets involved at that point then we finalize the scope and document whatever the customer wants for this solution.

Deep Security isn't expensive for what it does. Our customers understand what the product is doing, so they are always willing to pay for that. In India, the price isn't an issue with this product actually because the competing Symantec product is much more expensive than Trend Micro. The pricing isn't that cheap, but every customer will ask for a discount regardless of the price you quote.

I rate Trend Micro Deep Security nine out of 10. I recommend Deep Security to all our customers for server security. We sell quite a few security solutions, and we offer two products for server security: Trend Micro and Symantec. Since Symantec isn't really focusing on this area, we are primarily suggesting Trend Micro Deep Security.

I am a manager for a non-profit and use this solution for its antivirus capabilities.

Aside from the basic antivirus features, there are additional features such as vulnerability protection, firewall, etc. which are helpful.

Since this is a SaaS service, we do not need to worry about getting version upgrades as everything is updated on the backend by Trend Micro.

Since this is a cloud-based product, we do not need any on-premise environment for antivirus.

Some of the reporting and integrations could be more robust.

I have been using the solution for four or five years.

The solution is stable.

The solution is scalable.

Support is very good. There is a portal where you can go to raise support tickets, and there are three phone numbers that we can use to reach support. We also have been assigned a technical account manager to who we can reach out to with anything critical.

We used McAfee in the past.

The solution was straightforward to install. There is a default version that is ready to use as soon as it is installed and anything specific that the company desires can then be set.

We have about six to eight people with access to management.

We used a combination of an integrator, a technical account manager, and our in-house team.

There is a subscription cost to use this product.

I would recommend this product and would rate it a nine out of ten.

We primarily use the solution for security purposes. 

We couldn't find any aspect that was valuable. That's why we want to drop the usage of Trend Micro Deep Security. The team cannot see the benefits.

The initial setup was straightforward. 

It is scalable. 

It is stable. 

We couldn't make the necessary modifications to the solution. We want to see improved authentication. We want to improve the interaction, and we want to get more notifications from the security service.

We've been working with the solution for three years. 

The solution has been stable and is working. We don't have any issues with the tool. 

We have not had any issues with scalability. The solution can expand as needed. 

We are using it on our more than 50 virtual servers. 

I cannot recall dealing with technical support. 

We want to replace the solution with Sentinel One and are moving in that direction now. 

We are also using other Trend Micro products, such as email security. 

The product offers a simple, straightforward setup. I'm not sure how long the deployment itself took. It was implemented three years ago, and I do not recall the exact strategy we used during implementation. 

I'm not sure how many people were involved in the initial deployment. 

We bought and paid for the solution three years ago, and in six months, we will have to renew and pay again. Instead of doing that, we are looking for a new solution, likely Sentinel One. 

My team plans to drop the usage of Trend Micro.

I'd rate the solution five out of ten.
