I would say it is less appropriate for an organization which is looking to implement a tool within a short period of time. However, we found support on the web forum as well as from support team and were given solutions always. It was somewhat a relief for the users. We were not in a position to provide further IT security resources. And Anti Targeted Attack Platform did not require such. The tool was able to identify and eliminate a critical threat right after the implementation.

• Complex attacks are identified frequently.
• Advanced thread intelligence.
• Privacy of all data is very well maintained.

• Analyzing security logs can be challenging as the interface is rather slow and due to the large quantity of logged data.
• It is not always clear why a resource was blocked as there are 2 types of block lists
• Clients sometimes have to re-logon in order to get an updated policy rolled out.

• False positives were identified frequently.
• Implementing rules are a very complex process.

• Not always clear which block list caused an access issue. [There are] several places that need to be checked.
• Client policies take a while to get updated, sometimes need to re-logon

• Implementation did not go as planned. Therefore, time consumption was increased.
• Since we moved out of the tool, we had to consider another which costed time.
