IBM Security QRadar EDR vs. Jamf Protect

IBM Security QRadaar EDR provides all the security features at one place with a reasonable price. Though for smaller organizations, the price may be quite high. Plus since it can detect threats and malwares in real time, every business should try them out.

The main reason we went with Jamf Protect was because we wanted a dedicated macOS security endpoint. Is was easy to implement and migrate over from our previous endpoint provider. As a university we have lab macOS devices that multiple users use. So we have Jamf Protect profiles that block the use of external drives and other other profiles that allow it. We different user accounts requiring different access this can get a bit messy when deploying the config profiles at login for each user that signs in.

• Detect known and unknown endpoint security threats
• Remediate these threats near real time
• Automation in threat detection
• Threat attack attack visualization storyboards
• Alert management authomation

• Low resource use Protected Agent - stops tampering with agent and is not a resource hog
• Managed and custom Analytics - along with the out of the box Analytics provided by JAMF, admins can also set up their own to focus on areas of concern eg NISTcompliance items
• Vendor support - support is very responsive and knowledgeable

Incentivized

• use AI to review previous false negatives that contributed wrongly in the AI suggestion on the follow alerts
• easily run a script based on values from an hash, ips, path inside the boxes on the behavioral tree
• apply the remediation to a range of endpoint instead to only the endpoint of the current alert
• use ajax for example to update the alert page automatically while actions are happening
• for api have profiles that allow only get actions, or just post on some actions
• create users in bulk

• The integration with Jamf Pro has come a long way but could still be a bit more "one stop" vs two tools and two dashboards.

Bitdefender GravityZone combines multiple security services into a single platform to reduce the cost of building a trusted environment for endpoints. bit the IBM provides a vast support and always there to guide when in need With the majority of our users working in hybrid mode we needed a strong security control that could provide top-class protection with the minimum amount of False Positives (and, of course, of True Positives).

In some aspects, Jamf Protect was far superior to the others mentioned above. The only downside I can see is that it is only macOS which could be a problem for hybrid environments.

Incentivized

• Positive impact is customizable detection strategy.
• Other positive impact is pin processes in the tree investigation.
• Negative impact is little bit expense.

Incentivized

• Better detection of malware reducing downtime and risk to network
• Easy to implement
• Can be a bit of a steep learning curve in general
