    Pentana is great for monitoring PIs and risks. We find it less helpful for monitoring projects (with the Actions module); it isn't quite flexible enough for our needs, though the support team have been very helpful in adding custom fields for us.

    It’s a dedicated Network Advanced Threat Detection and
    Prevention solution. Easy maintenance and low operating costs fit perfectly for
    SMEs. Variety of appliance selection makes NX the perfect choice for large
    enterprises. As it’s a dedicated solution with its own appliance, price is higher
    compared to NGTP add on solutions. FireEye is an ecosystem therefore when you’ve
    the EX or HX vice versa, you should be looking to NX. Otherwise, you’re missing
    the threat intel exchange on the network side reverse is the true. Sizing is
    important before the purchase, if you select a low end model for a busy network
    you lose your initial investment. For multiple NX deployments I highly
    recommend CMS. Without CMS you’ll lose the threat intel exchange and this will
    negatively reduce the risk scores.

    Pros
    Ideagen
    • Pentana is excellent for monitoring, recording and reporting on PIs. Very easy to use the PI module.
    • Pentana is excellent for monitoring risks at various levels (service, strategic etc.). Risks are displayed very clearly in a tree structure and the module is relatively easy to use.

    • Advanced detection of targeted attacks.
    • Mandiant team effort is a big plus.
    • Inline mitigation capabilities particularly well.
    • Different deployment models for specific needs.
    • License and information sharing selection 1 way or 2 way mode.
    • Frequent updates.
    • Low false positive rates.
    • FireEye sandboxing is immune to sandboxing attacks.
    • Central management (CMS) capabilities for managing several NX's.
    • Extra IPS/IDS functionality in the product.
    • Smartvision specific to lateral movement detection.
    • Upgrades and updates with zero down time.
    • Local FireEye support is superb.
    • Multiple deployment scenarios (span, inline) in the same NX for different interface pairs.
    • SSL inspection support.
    • No need to maintain, build or updates the images. It's highly automatic.

    Cons
    Ideagen
    • Pentana could improve the free Documents module that comes with Pentana Risk. At the moment documents have to be linked to an action in order to display query results (such as how many documents are due for review) - this can be confusing for users who don't understand why there is an action linked. There is also no easy way for users to see the documents that are assigned to them.
    • We would like to use the Actions module fully in order to monitor our corporate projects, but it a bit confusing for users and not very flexible when a project doesn't mirror Pentana's way of monitoring actions.

    • Very first detected APT sample can pass the NX even it's inline blocking mode.
    • Performance optimization for busy networks is cumbersome.
    • CMS does not provide all the management capabilities, CLI or local config. Should be done for advanced customization.
    • Constant limitations of tcpdump/ packet capture for 10G interfaces.
    • IPS functionality is a bit cumbersome, not a full feature IPS, lack of signatures and customization of IPS signatures.
    • It's not a full NDR solution or a UBA solution.
    • Lack of device or user mapping.
    • Forensics is based on the specific APT. May not provide the whole story and need some additional tools.
    • You cannot make manual submission to NX (needs AX).
    • You cannot access the kernel directly for deep analy[sis] or troubleshooting (assist from FireEye Support should be taken).

    Usability
    Ideagen
    Some modules are more user-friendly than others. It's sometimes not obvious where to click to update the fields (or even that field titles can be clicked on). We have written 'Howdys' to help users. There can also seem to be a lot of steps/clicks to updating risks and actions. The Reports module on Pentana classic is certainly not user-friendly, particularly the Report Layout and Charts modules - we were told these would be integrated into the web version but this hasn't happened yet.

    We selected Pentana because our neighbouring authorities are users and had spoken highly of the product and given us demonstrations; some of our staff were also familiar with Pentana when it was called Covalent. It seemed to be the best product on the market for monitoring risks, PIs and projects.

    FireEye NX is a solid product. It gives you sustainable
    security throughout the organization. NX detection engines are more capable
    compared to others. Its catch rate is higher, FP rate is lower, [and] speed is
    awesome. NX can work for highly regulated environments with 1 way solution.
    Operation costs are much lower. Software quality is very good. It may have bugs, but these bugs do not compromise the security in general. SOC team loves the
    FireEye NX for its pinpoint detection capabilities. Local and partner support
    is exceptional.

    Return on Investment
    Ideagen
    • Pentana Risk has allowed my team to focus on other areas of work whereas before we would be manually chasing for updates on PIs and risk. Pentana Risk does the chasing for us!
    • We are able to produce reports for audit purposes very easily, rather than sending spreadsheets which is what we used to do.
    • New managers can easily inherit risks, projects and PIs and see all of this on a custom portal, saving them time when they start.

    • As [a] financial company on the digital markets, we need to be safeguard for 0days and targeted attacks. FireEye NX provides the best updated protection with its enhanced capabilities.
    • Security score based on detection/prevention metrics [is] very high ensuring the highest level of security.
    • APTs in our region successfully detected and mitigated by the NX.
    • For the ROI, in a six month period FireEye is paying off its [investment].
    • One negative thing, especially with increasing network bandwidths, [is that] you need to make [the] investment every two or three years.
