Carbon Black App Control vs. Quixxi Security

Cb Protect is best suited somewhere where you want to maximize the lockdown of workstations. So moving past no local admin rights to blocking specific applications and peripherals. The idea would be to have a list of applications you want to run, and then anything else is not able to be used. As stated prior, if you have a very fluid environment where you are having all sorts of new applications installed frequently (I feel for you!!) this is still do-able, but it misses the general idea. I think especially in environments that are more sensitive to new applications, like banks, healthcare systems etc, this is a good fit. The ability to look at application levels, drift, unapproved software etc is very useful.

If you are developing mobile apps, you should be doing regular vulnerability scans. Quixxi Scan does this quickly and easily from your working app code. Furthermore, if your company requires compliance with any of the major software development or industry-standard data security standards like SOC -2, the Quixxi scan reports are ideal and can be used "as is."

• Controls file writes, executions of the scripts
• Defends from process injections, memory protection
• Visibility and lock down posibilities

• Simple to understand but comprehensive PDF report. Ideal for compliance reporting.
• Provides recommendations to resolve vulnerabilities.
• Uses industry standard OWASP framework for vulnerability identification.

• Perhaps more specific training.

• Would like to see dynamics scanning added.
• Would like to see code snippets for examples.

Very good. I only had one problem when implementing it and the Support team was online via chat and helped me straight away.

The big difference between Protect and Barkly/AMP is how exactly it goes about what it's doing. Protect is application whitelisting and program reputation. So the way it's protecting you is using a proprietary reputation service, and hash values to identify applications, and then hitting a list of whitelisted programs to decide if you are able to run that or not, based on the policy you are in. There is a LOT of value in that. We actually are working on transitioning to Cisco Advanced Malware Protection (AMP). The main reason is cost (about the same cost as Cb Protect, but with (most of) the featureset of all 3 Carbon Black products for less than 1/3 of the total spend. AMP works differently, looking at a reputation service powered by Cisco's Talos cloud. You don't really have application whitelisting, but that also reduces how many "requests" you get for applications. So I'll have to find a different way to do whitelisting and USB blocking and the like, but I'm getting more visibility across my network and also built in antivirus (TETRA engine - ClamAV with some work). Barkly is an add that we are looking to put in as it looks at behavior of programs. So specifically it watches for privilege elevation and the like. Thus far all the big name problem children (WannaCry, other ransomware problems) have been caught natively in Barkly day 0.

It was the best value for money and it was easy to use. It was recommended in the top 10 vulnerability scanners.

• App Control can ensure Continuous Compliance.
• Solution can reduce expenses on different security software.
• Nowadays Zero Trust approach is very important for any organization and Application control is one of the main parts of it.

• It's cheap and comprehensive.
• It's quick and easy to use.
• It can be integrated into X-Code or Android Studio to run as a part of Git code checking or app deployment in the testing stage.
