Microsoft Defender for Endpoint is easy to deployed across the entire organization. Having a cloud based solution with a single pane of glass to manage all assets is a real no-brainer. Being able to receive immediate alerts when suspicious activity occurs is extremely helpful in keeping risks at a minimum. Microsoft Defender for Endpoint management is also smart enough to not send several alerts when an attack could be hitting multiple targets within a certain time frame or when it's the same attack multiple times. However, be prepared to click through multiple pages all over the site to figure out what happened when an attack occurs.

• One, it's crazy lightweight, so compared to some of the competitors that we also have used with our security services, it's really lightweight and so I don't have a lot of overhead on the system that it's running on.
• It does really fantastic PowerShell integration.

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

• It would be good to continue to minimize the amount of resources needed during a scan
• Provide more integration with Outlook to scan attachments with a notification that everything is good
• Provide a Click to Fix option when listing issues or high-risk problems on systems

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).

Defender is far easier to deploy and manage than Sophos and tends to work without as many issues. The threat assessment portal provides an in-depth view of the organization's security posture, whereas Sophos only shows the patching status of the PCs. We did need Intune to get many of the control features (disabling USB drives) that Sophos offered out of the box.
