    To help the Infosec Team Scale & create a seamless consolidated threat response. FortiDeceptor all the Security analysts to manually investigate & manual remediation or automatically block these attacks based on severity before actual damage occurs via integration with Fortigate to quarantine the IP address of the threat actor, FortiNAC to isolate devices within an organization with FortiSOAR to trigger appropriate playbooks for an orchestrated response and with 3rd party solutions to trigger a response action via built-in fabric connector API. FortiDeceptor needs other FortiFabric Devices to respond well, however, FortiDeceptor also connects with other solutions via built-in fabric connector API, but you may miss the real-time data flow or may be delayed in response.

    I think McAfee is great to have whether it's for work or for personal use. While it has some drawbacks, I like the peace of mind of feeling safe when I'm browsing the web/email, especially when my computer has sensitive/confidential information, knowing that McAfee will immediately detect any threats. The UI is extremely easy to navigate, which makes it easy for users regardless of how tech-savvy they are.

    Since we have other Fortinet solutions like Fortigate NGFW & FortiSIEM in place, they share the threat intelligence with each other, and FortiDeceptor works very well in FortiFabric environments, We decided to go with FortiDeceptor for Deception technology. In the case of Rapid7 & Smokescreen, we had to counter the integration issue with existing IT infra, Security solutions should not work in silos, they need to share intelligence with each other to get the best from the existing Solution & to get the best ROI.

    I haven't used Norton for a while, but when I did use it I felt that it slowed down my computer and had constant pop-ups, which were both equally frustrating and annoying. It was also very difficult to remove from my computer. Malwarebytes is a great, straightforward program I've used for virus scanning. It's pretty bare bones but I think if you just want something to scan for viruses it gets the job done quickly and reliably. In my opinion McAfee offers similar benefits as Norton but its more intuitive and doesn't impact system performance.

    Return on Investment
    Fortinet
    • Internet security is a gamble. It's hard to know the cost of a "would-be" attack. FortiDeceptor is basically an insurance policy and for that, it is a great investment.
