Kaspersky Endpoint Security vs. Trend Vision One XDR and ASM

Anytime you are managing multiple servers and workstations on a network, having a good Security Center to assist with that management is critical. Kaspersky Security Center provides that and gives the administrator the tools and reports necessary to properly manage and monitor these systems across a network. This is a VERY useful tool and it makes my job much easier.

I think Trend Vision One XDR is great for small companies and large enterprises. I can say for certain that I know much more of the the endpoints behavior or things that the end user does than I knew before we implemented Trend Vision One XDR. You can see almost everything you need (and don't need).

• Potential threat identification and quarantining is immediate and very reliable.
• Monitoring system updates, statistics, hardware status, and connectivity issues for all systems on the network.
• Installation and registration, either remotely or in person, is a breeze, usually taking about 10-15 minutes, and with step by step confirmations.
• The organizational hierarchy, as well as the abilities listed in the hierarchy are extremely user friendly and easy to use for novices and pros alike.

Incentivized

• Visibility of Threats and how they are trying to communicate out.
• Using predictive analytics and machine learning to monitor for emerging threats.
• Increased Risk Visibility that ties back to the MITRE ATT&CK Framework.
• Easy integration with Apex One.

• The PC imaging tools are difficult to set up and use
• Device Encryption tools are getting better, but are difficult to manage.
• The policies are powerful, but could be broken up. More help can be provided in what the policy element does within the policy setup

Incentivized

• Install and uninstall the agent can be tricky sometimes
• remove an endpoint from inventory not always going smooth
• the sensor sometimes stops working and you need to reinstall it.

The product is stable and accurate in detecting security threats. There are very few or no false positives in detecting security threats or unusual behavior and has very sharp heuristics. The product does the job very well including saving us money in getting 3rd party patch management tools as the business is already using Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager which is Microsoft product specific and the product patches these third party products e.g Adobe Flash Player

We are very happy with the product and impressed with their future road map of features.

I will give Kaspersky a score of 9 out of 10 for scalability, as it allows businesses to easily expand their security infrastructure. This means it won't cost them a lot to add further protection and security. It won't also require them to purchase other hardware and services for their required protection.

Me and my team are using it every single day. We go over threats and vulnerabilities and try to fix it. Trend Vision One XDR has machine learning so it does a good job to learn the behavior of an end point and recognize if its normal or not, so its saves us from wasting time in some cases.

I've used the on-premise server. I've only experienced one time that we couldn't open the console, and that was a server issue. It seems to be a dependable solution. It's there, and it's stable.

Users don't notice any slowdown with the antivirus running on their systems. There have been issues when the systems have missed a scheduled scan, and it was checked to run at [a] first available time, they will start a full scan at startup. This has caused some lag. Normally there are also some issues with the workstation, but it is something to note.

I give the maximum grade because we have no complaints; we never had any failure, serious error, and serious threat to the company. All of its features work very well. The great advantage of having a product supported by an industry-leading security company is that regularly updated security protocols will protect the system against all emerging threats.

They have helped walk us through setup and made sure everything was properly configured.

Make sure to provide awareness campaigns on changes that will be implemented and WHY the business is doing it and the benefits reaped. Benefits reaped is very important for the justification of why things have to change and emphasizing the importance of security. This will reduce user disgruntlement and total bitterness on use of their workstation or laptop

I've used the cloud version of CarbonBlack and Bitdefender. They both say they automatically scan files as soon as they appear on your computer. The user/administrator is left to trust that the technology works. With Bitdefender, it at least allows an on-demand scan, but it still never reports to the user if the file was clean. Kaspersky automatically scans and notifies the user that it has been scanned AND the results of the scan. In IT we know we can't always trust the technology to perform as designed. I NEED confirmation to feel at ease. Kaspersky makes it easy to run an on-demand scan of a workstation if there is suspicion of an infection. Another thing is that I have not [seen] in Bitdefender, and I know CarbonBlack does not provide inventory information for the administrators like Kasperky. Kaspersky gives detailed information about the systems it scan and lists every software installed. You can even filter and search for specific installations in your network through the Kaspersky Server Center (KSC). It helps know what licenses are used and where.

We had Trend Micro Apex One in the past and were quiet happy with it .I can't say about the price because its not my spot at our team but for my knowledge Trend Vision One XDR wasn't the most expensive overall. We also saw demo of the product and its abilities.

You can create groups and create different policies for each group. You can customize many parts of the software before it is deployed. You can create different tasks and schedules based on the groups. It is customizable.

• It reduced the incidents of infections and so reduced the efforts needed by the IT department to mitigate problems.
• It made it difficult to manage the security of our growing mobile user base due to infrequent contact with our on-premise management server.

Incentivized

• It helped us close some security gaps
• We had PT and cyber and Information security audit, one of the things was to implement an better AV and XDR
