Attivo Endpoint Detection Net (EDN) vs. ThreatDown, powered by Malwarebytes

Attivo Endpoint Detection Net (EDN) is a suitable option in mid level and large companies to detect insider threats and stealthy attackers. It is highly recommended where data is highly sensitive and there are chances of attack to get access to critical revers to get saves credentials and stored files. for small and medium business this solution is not recommended where perimeter security is already configured.

I think Malwarebytes is the best anti-malware company. I think it is well-suited for any situation and any device. I think Malwarebytes does the best on Windows and on MacOS. Also, Malwarebytes is always improving, and you can tell they are a company that stays on top of cybersecurity trends. If you have a tight budget or looking for the cheapest solution, then Malwarebytes may not be the solution for you. To clarify, I don't think Malwarebytes is that much more expensive compared to its closest competitors.

• To mimic production servers to deceive attackers
• To detect the lateral movements of adversary through machine learning algorithms
• To feed dummy data on production servers through threat strike feature

• Protects against malware - No matter how much training you give end users on social hacking, there is always a breach at some point.
• Protects against ransomware - Ransomware could spell disaster for a company...it could literally shut the doors for good.
• Centralized administration - Without a terrific centralized method to manage all the systems being protected, it would require an extra position just to maintain all endpoints.

• Attivo Endpoint Detection Net (EDN) should have capability for getting forensics packages from compromised systems in my opinion.
• I believe Auto phishing email detection capability should be improved to meet industry requirements to tackle phishing attack vector
• Malware detection capabilities should be improved to work to kernel level for better visibility in my opinion.

Incentivized

• 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

As I mentioned, we have only email support. Their phone support was very expensive. If we ever have any issues, we have to email them and wait for their response. In most cases, I have figured out the issue on my own. The software is very stable so we haven't used their support much.

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

Attivo provides a user friendly management with a centralized manager. We can do configuration of Attivo Endpoint Detection Net (EDN) from a centralized console and deploy the Attivo Endpoint Detection Net (EDN) very easily. In other deception tool like forti deceptor etc, they have a bit poor user interface in my opinion and use-ability feature are improved in Attivo as compared to its competitors solutions I believe

It's no contest. Cisco AMP, Umbrella and Endpoint use vast amounts of resources and provide little protection when compared with Malwarebytes. One client recently replaced Cisco with MWB and found over 7,300 vulnerabilities on 352 endpoints, including 120 listed as Critical and 7,180 listed as High, with CVE's dating back to 2008.

• Attivo Endpoint Detection Net (EDN) helps to protect information hence Attivo Endpoint Detection Net (EDN) is securing sensitive data therefore ROI is better as loosing the data is much more costlier as per Business Impact Analysis.
• In small organization ROI is not effective as cost of Attivo Endpoint Detection Net (EDN) is a bit high and data being protected through EDN is not high value asset in my opinon.
• It is a better technology to detect cyber threats so anyway it is recommended to use for better security posture.

• The ease of remediation has saved our IT team a number of hours manually installing, for example, the free version of Malwarebytes to remove infections, and then cleaning the machine up. Being able to centrally send commands to clean the device is much more efficient.
• The centralised management has also alerted us to infections on machines that we might not otherwise have known about, as the existing AV had not detected them, saving us potential data loss, or system damage.
