IBM X-Force Incident Response and Intelligence Services (IRIS) vs. ThreatDown, powered by Malwarebytes

Well suited to the following: 1. Data-Driven Analytics. I cannot stress that enough. It has been transformational in the way we are able to accomplish tasks and analyze large amounts of information. 2. Connect-The-Dots methodology. I have found it incredibly adept in allowing new information to be used in tandem with already-known info. 3. This is the icing on the cake and what I had originally set out to accomplish - IRIS has made it possible - Generative AI that uses verified data science to provide insights and expedite our advancement by performing experiments yielding real-world positive results. This has significantly reduced the time it takes for technology to be ready and marketable, reduces the workload, and saves a tremendous amount of money in the long run by allowing our discoveries to be 3 weeks away instead of 30 years. In contrast, scenarios where it is less appropriate are in nearly identical company when it comes to my third point (A double-edged sword, if you will.) We have a responsibility to ensure that this technology is used for a positive outcome and "Future:Forward" approach. This is the mark of true Evolution. It's up to us to keep it so.

I would absolutely recommend Malwarebytes Endpoint Protection to a colleague and I have recommended it to many of my peers in the IT world. Malwarebytes is well suited for any environment that requires protection from mal/ransomware which is most companies these days. In particular for companies that host their own big data that the operation of the company relies on. The only place Malwarebytes Endpoint Protection may not be AS appropriate would be one where there is near zero reliance on computers, networks and data.

• Immediate recognition of possible conflicting interests within a field of view.
• Ability to assist users with Research and Development at an extraordinary rate.
• Real-Time feedback via neural pathways to analyze data and implement independent solutions that are tailored to the specific applications on-site.
• This entire review was written with the assistance of IRIS technology as a demonstrative of it's very real practical application. This took less than 2 minutes to write using my own hands.

• The biggest plus with this software is that you can manage all the clients from a management console. You can push the install/updates through it. If the client cannot connect to the management console, then it will update directly from their website. This means you are always up to date and protected.
• The software on the client machine has very low overhead so it doesn't affect the performance.
• You can create policies based on the types of users or by the department. You can customize these policies so it will let you micro-manage the clients.

• Suggestion 1) "RE:View" functionality.
• Suggestion 2) "ION = EYE-ON" in Language processing.
• Suggestion 3) Biological GUI+GPU integration.
• Suggestion 4) Ability to "RE:Quest" IRIS Up-link/Down-link interaction. (Inter-Act w/(EYE-ON))

• poor customer service
• dashboard says product is working EVEN THOUGH IT WAS NOT!
• slow response to concerns that should be easy to remedy
• creates baggage which caused certain computers and the network to run more slowly
• caused 3 computers on our network top have windows errors and network issues

When I first used the tool in my home systems MANY years ago, I wished for a Business version. I was once at a focus group for a major antivirus company, and one attendee’s feedback to “what could we do better?” was “buy out MalwareBytes and add it to your tool”. I’ve used the Business version since it first became available, and have continued to be a dedicated user through the many iterations and improvements

It simply works. It doesn't require the hand-holding and monitoring that some other solutions do. It's simple to deploy and maintain, and adding custom content such as Exceptions require minimal effort. I’ve had to add a few exceptions for internal-use, in-house-developed tools, but it’s quite simple to do so within the online interface

Whenever I've had a query for the support team, they have got back to me very quickly, and given me very well detailed advice on fixing whatever the issue I had was. They also pointed me to help documents and such where I could find more information if I needed

I first implemented this more than 10 years ago, when it required an in-site setup with SQL Server (or SQL Express), and even that was pretty easy. With the move to centralized web management some treats ago, it’s become even easier to deploy

Secure work environment with this platform has enhanced effective workflow infrastructure. The cost of deployment and configuration capabilities with other security applications lead to main decision of acquiring this tool. The security control dashboards gives reliable performance reports that leads to quick decision-making when there are malware attacks. It gives lifecycle report for most work processes and threat intelligence information that enables my team to track workloads effectively.

I think Malwarebytes Endpoint Protection is hands down better from any point of view other than price. Malwarebytes is a little bit more costly than Webroot. However, Malwarebytes detects more threats, protects against more malicious URL's, allows more in customization of policies, has better administration GUI, and has better means of implementation.

• Other than over billing our company by $6,821.76, our clients are very happy with our approach to network security and malware protection
• Our service and lack of data breaches (do in part to Malwarebytes) has allowed us to retain our client base for over two decades.
