CrowdStrike Falcon vs Trend Micro TippingPoint Threat Protection System (TPS)

• Ransomware protection. We ran a ransomware simulation with obfuscated executables to hide malware signatures and CrowdStrike found and stopped 15 out of 15.
• Malware/adware detection. Packaged adware in official installers are instantly blocked without interfering with the install of the primary application.

• Tipping point had a very nice GUI interface that sat on top of snort rules. It was easy to access, had nice customization of dashboards and output to syslog for SIEM solutions.
• It was easy to configure rule sets, allow groups or singular allow/blocks or white-listing.
• Security rule sets could be tweaked up or down and allow/drops signatures could be configured to help increase performance.

• We get false positive detections when we run an email signature script for our users. These false positives can be a distraction. We've implemented a whitelist for those behaviors, but had some difficulty in figuring out how to configure CrowdStrike to recognize these executions since the file name and hash were always different (the executing file was firstname_lastname.exe, and that was too Vague to whitelist.

• Biggest qualms I had with TippingPoint was that it was just a tad on the expensive side for what you get. Nowadays everything has gone UTM in firewalls and they do it all including IPS as part of the basic functionality so really, TP is losing a massive market share.
• Don't see a future in the roadmap with so many other vendors getting onto the "unified" wagon and adding IPS as part of their service and at a cheaper price.

• CrowdStrike has cut our security costs.
• Has given us more insight into our end points.
• It has helped with our older PC's CPU usage.
• Cut our cost and time from managing multiple platforms down to managing one platform with better insight than what we had with multiple security platforms.

• Negative cash flow, positive addition to our defense in depth strategy at one of the largest healthcare organizations in Georgia (at that time).
