A startup essential for Cyber Security
Use Cases and Deployment Scope
ThreatDown, powered by Malwarebytes, is used on all our employee laptops and endpoints with access to our VPN or corporate resources. It allows us to keep up to date with aging patches and keep a running list of vulnerabilities by endpoint on both Mac OS and Windows OS. We also have one Linux workstation that is captured by the platform.
Pros
- Automated reporting and emailed exports to stakeholders
- Ease of onboarding (one link to download a script, or able to be pushed out via another MDM)
Cons
- A prebuilt alert for when a given endpoint hasn't reported in would be helpful. I understand that it would be chattery at scale, but at our small start up we have missed a few instances where and endpoint has gone offline.
Return on Investment
- A very cost effective method to stay SOC 2 compliant
Usability
