Trusteer is great for banking and protecting a computer beyond internet banking! There can be painful times when we try to help a customer who has Trusteer and Norton or McAfee and it doesn't want to work. But Trusteer has great services offered in their portal in the Start Menu.

I would say, where it's well suited as certainly any device where you know that either you're potentially running a Kickstarter device as your own personal unit, but maybe you want to try to connect it to some resource like, "Hey, you know what? This is a small community device. Maybe I'll try connecting my email on the go." You're protected from that perspective with the vendor, even if it's something that might be a bit suspicious from a hardware perspective. There's also the case where any device that you know are running Defender for endpoint that you're good to go. You don't really have to worry about all the other solutions out there because Defender has recovered.

Microsoft
  • It integrates perfectly with Azure Sentinel. I mean, that's great. We can have a single pane of class with other platforms, like Defender for Cloud, Defender for endpoints, and Defender for servers, which is awesome as well. The ease of deployment is because Microsoft made sure around a year ago that every single workstation with Microsoft Windows came with Defender for Endpoints embedded.

Cons
IBM
  • Logins - I have issues regularly with my logins - that may be user related though.
  • It interferes with some other security products and causes issues on our website at times.

  • While it's a very good product for auditing, it has a very hard time to distinguish what is malicious and is an attack, what is not. Very rarely we get indication of a real malicious attack. We got lots of hours for off the shelf malware that it cleans up automatically. So basically we never get to look at it, which is a positive thing, but threats are detected by the third party endpoint, so it will not be enough by itself.

IBM Trusteer maintains the same focus with what it offers as a comprehensive and reliable vision tool. The technical support is the best that has been handled. The integration with other elements is reciprocal and of unique quality to promote the use at the corporate and advanced level. No more saying that we use the software because it is also economically sustainable and favors us a lot

Cost add-ons for Security features is nickel and diming the process to keep pace with cybercrime. Limited Education budgets require us to be more pro-active in finding cost-effective measures to protect our devices, staff and students. Defender is a strong, well-featured product that is pricing itself out of the education market

The first time I tried to onboard my macOS endpoints to MDE I struggled for quite a bit. I had to reach out to Microsoft's MDE support team. The tech was very helpful in walking me through the steps during a screen share session

We use FraudMAP to monitor activity inside of the Online Banking login and we love it! It helps us to find strange IPs, inconsistent activity, fraudulent activity, and updates done within online banking. We use it in conjunction with Trusteer because Trusteer can tell us when a registered PC has a potentially malicious virus on it before any logins are processed

Tenable Security Center was a fantastic exposure detection tool but there was always a lag and servers would hang alot when being scanned causing resource traffic. Microsoft Defender for Endpoint on the other hand does not use up most resources soo there is usually noo lag during scanning and it also provide more detailed insights on the network. Also Microsoft Defender for Endpoint integration power has helped us up our security game by delivering a smooth secure network.

  • Since the implementation of this tool as a support mechanism to safeguard the identity of our treasures, the organization has had a significant return to the sustainable resources that this tool offers (ROI). It is positive since we have maintained the link of work for which we are made and the satisfaction of our customers.
  • Professional and sustainable technical support. It is worth the investment because it does not affect the budget, but there are both substantive and objective gains.
  • We have reached the goal of advancing towards the integration of our service platforms with IBM Trusteer towards the consolidation of a reliable and sustainable organization.

  • Positive : Microsoft Defender for Endpoint offers sophisticated threat detection and response capabilities, putting it into use helps increase security. Reduced security incidents, data breaches, and related expenses may arise from this.
  • Positive : A more secure environment means less time and effort spent by IT and security teams on remediation and incident response.
  • False Positives: Like any security solution, false positives can occur, leading to unnecessary investigations and potential disruptions to business operations. This may require additional resources to manage.
