    It is valuable software for when it comes to a large or medium organization, since it helps to protect the endpoints, but as the number of servers increases its value increases. However, it is important to keep in mind that when it comes to low end devices, its protection can affect their performance. This is because it is not a software with a very light agent.

    • The incident management piece is the heart and soul of the product. A single area where all data in relation to network and email protection is available.
    • Works well in conjunction with the standard Symantec Endpoint product.
    • URL Protection is advanced and very helpful
    • Technical support is great and definitely the best I have ever seen for a "anti-virus" type product.

    • I don't like that I have to maintain the client and keep it up to date. Updating the client is not a very easy process.
    • Deploying the client could be easier. They have a deployment tool, but it doesn't really get to all PCs, which means I still have to manually deploy it.
    • Because the product has so much customization, it can also be very difficult to set up and understand.

    Symantec Advanced Threat Protection has done a sufficient job at identifying true positives. However, the UI could be improved and the amount of false positives is a little too frequent for my liking

    No, besides to review documentation prior to beginning. That is what helped lead to a smooth implementation

    Frankly, the other products were too expensive to make the change from Symantec so we continued with the tried and true protection. We don't have the funding to move to a more expensive product and the manpower that it would take to implement a new solution.

    • Some digital assets were lost due to failures to detect various threats.
    • We had to use other products in combination in order to trust that all threats were actually detected, taking extra time. We couldn't use just SATP.
    • Ability to quickly manage/deploy via AD made maintenance of the application itself quick and easy.

    Hornetsecurity 365 Total Protection Screenshots

    Screenshot of Email Live Tracking with user-defined settings offers users a complete overview of all Emails addressed to them. If an incoming Email has, for example, been classified as spam, you will receive comprehensive information and can individually determine any further interaction. This means that you can always quickly find any email you are searching for and delivery options can be defined for the future.Screenshot of With the help of Infomail Handlings, the inboxes or smartphones of your users will no longer be flooded with newsletters and ad mails. Users are no longer distracted by the constant arrival of unimportant emails, thus making it easier for them to keep track of relevant business matters.Screenshot of Content Control protects your email communication from receiving or sending unwanted or unauthorized file attachments in keeping with your company policy. When running Content Control, umbrella terms and categories (e.g., .docmacro or .executable) may be blocked, for example in the default group (mailboxes that are not allocated to any particular group). For a department such as Marketing, however, the receipt of media files and macros can, on the other hand, be necessary for daily business: In this respect, one can create, for example, a group for the Marketing department and adjust the settings in Content Control so that only potentially dangerous, e.g. executable, file formats are blocked for this group.Screenshot of If an incoming email (e.g. phishing or spam mail) constitutes a threat, the attack is immediately detected by the multi-stage filter systems of 365 Total Protection. Unwanted emails are directly rejected by the Threat Blocking function or detected in later analyses by Threat Intelligence and sent straight to Quarantine. In both cases, these emails will not be delivered to your mailbox.Screenshot of If you do not want to receive emails from one or several specific senders, you can put these on your personal Blacklist. With just one click directly in your in-box the selected senders can be added to the Blacklist to prevent emails from the same sender from being delivered to you in future. If an email from a generally unobjectionable sender lands in Quarantine by mistake, thus appearing in the spam report, the “Whitelist” function can be used. Emails from senders on your Whitelist will always be delivered to your in-box in future.Screenshot of Every email sent out by a company is not only relevant to the business, but is also your company’s business card. In terms of content, a company-wide standardized structure and the completeness of signature datasets are essential. In this context, all email signatures also have the same visual design and layout. This task can also be allocated to the Marketing department or office management via the “What You See is What You Get” editor.
