Advanced WAF is well suited for protection against account enumeration attacks, protection against known and new increasing attack vectors through out of the box attack signatures and threat campaigns. Also, up to date and accurate IP intelligence database to block based on known IP reputation.

Trusteer is great for banking and protecting a computer beyond internet banking! There can be painful times when we try to help a customer who has Trusteer and Norton or McAfee and it doesn't want to work. But Trusteer has great services offered in their portal in the Start Menu.

Pros
F5
  • So the product definitely is helping us for sudden attacks through DDOS, some injection ingestion into UI URLs, and definitely it's capturing those and I definitely see that as an advantage for us. They can stop the hackers from using our endpoints.

Cons

  • I'd like to see the licensing model streamlined instead of having this, plus, plus this, plus this to get a working product. I had to go back to the sales team several different times to get a fully deployed product.

  • Logins - I have issues regularly with my logins - that may be user related though.
  • It interferes with some other security products and causes issues on our website at times.

IBM Trusteer maintains the same focus with what it offers as a comprehensive and reliable vision tool. The technical support is the best that has been handled. The integration with other elements is reciprocal and of unique quality to promote the use at the corporate and advanced level. No more saying that we use the software because it is also economically sustainable and favors us a lot

We use FraudMAP to monitor activity inside of the Online Banking login and we love it! It helps us to find strange IPs, inconsistent activity, fraudulent activity, and updates done within online banking. We use it in conjunction with Trusteer because Trusteer can tell us when a registered PC has a potentially malicious virus on it before any logins are processed

  • Since the implementation of this tool as a support mechanism to safeguard the identity of our treasures, the organization has had a significant return to the sustainable resources that this tool offers (ROI). It is positive since we have maintained the link of work for which we are made and the satisfaction of our customers.
  • Professional and sustainable technical support. It is worth the investment because it does not affect the budget, but there are both substantive and objective gains.
  • We have reached the goal of advancing towards the integration of our service platforms with IBM Trusteer towards the consolidation of a reliable and sustainable organization.
