Comodo Advanced Endpoint Protection (AEP) vs. Kaspersky EDR Expert

It seems to be one of the best AV products that I have used. One issue that I have is with billing/invoicing and how the licenses are issued.

Incentivized

Easy to learn, use and deploy. Kaspersky EDR Expert allows to automatically find unmanaged and rogue endpoints, remove previous agent from another vendor, install its agent, move endpoint to a group based on endpoint's characteristics, change security policies if for example endpoint is moved to another subnet or currently out-of-office, apply malware outbreak rules in case of attack

• Mitigates exposure to unwanted files and malware.
• Ease of Use and Management.
• Administrator control unlike standard antivirus purchased in the consumer/small business market.

Incentivized

• Identify and automatically respond to end-point security threats
• Protect end-point systems against a broad range of cyber attacks
• Reduce operational costs to support EDR services

Incentivized

• Stability, they could grow when it comes to updates to the client. There always seems to be complications.
• Locking of systems. In the event of trouble, systems lock down so far that the administrator has to drive to the location where device is located, uninstall and reinstall.

Incentivized

• Linux-systems support on the same level like windows systems
• Untying from Kaspesky ATA
• AI add to ease the way of profiling the system (it requires 1 FTE to examine all the incidents on 10 000 hosts? too much)

Incentivized

I believe the Kaspersky EDR Expert systems represent significant cyber risks for government and commercial enterprise customers

Incentivized

I was using a platform called Barkly which seemed to work well at the time. I ran a ransomware simulation against Barkly and it did not perform as well as anticipated. I began searching for another AV platform, found Comodo and decided to run the same ransomware test. Comodo [Advanced Endpoint Protection (AEP)] performed much better and was more effective at stopping the simulated ransomware.

Incentivized

Overall, the suite of benefits and more reasonable cost per user/license to the organization were the key components affecting our decision-making.

Incentivized

• Increased [efficiency]
• Can centrally manage the endpoints
• Mitigation of threats/vulnerabilities to the endpoint

Incentivized

• Automating response task on suspicious activity
• Improving IT specialists skills and IS specialists skills
• Increased visibility of what malware really do on endpoint
