Kaspersky EDR Expert vs. Kaspersky EDR Optimum

Easy to learn, use and deploy. Kaspersky EDR Expert allows to automatically find unmanaged and rogue endpoints, remove previous agent from another vendor, install its agent, move endpoint to a group based on endpoint's characteristics, change security policies if for example endpoint is moved to another subnet or currently out-of-office, apply malware outbreak rules in case of attack

We have been using Kaspersky EDR Optimum for over 10 years, with the evolution of products reaching EDR now, we can verify the integrated responsiveness and visibility of our environment. Great protection tool on all OS. Very good value for money, with the new licensing, all business plans will now have native EDR.

• Identify and automatically respond to end-point security threats
• Protect end-point systems against a broad range of cyber attacks
• Reduce operational costs to support EDR services

Incentivized

• KEDR Optimum is helping to see threat kill chain formation, which helps to get clear picture of the what exactly attacker was trying to do during attack.
• We are crating prevent execution rules to block the threat in our complete infra.
• Ioc scan to validate and remove the any active threat entry from our endpoints

Incentivized

• Linux-systems support on the same level like windows systems
• Untying from Kaspesky ATA
• AI add to ease the way of profiling the system (it requires 1 FTE to examine all the incidents on 10 000 hosts? too much)

Incentivized

• Agent package size is little big, if it can be optimize with lite package would be great
• If possible Host Integrity functionality can be added, to take action as quarantine the non-compliance machine to connect our enterprise network
• Many times KSC cloud operating slow, if it can optimized for the faster response

I believe the Kaspersky EDR Expert systems represent significant cyber risks for government and commercial enterprise customers

At the moment and unfortunately we'll not renew our licenses, due to the Russian conflict and the company policy that has forced us to get rid of any Russian related product. Before that incident, we were very happy with the product and we did not even think once about changing it... Maybe on the future...

This item can always be improved, perhaps by pre-elaborating very long reports, such that they are built progressively so that when the user wants to consult them, the delay is minimal. It would also be interesting to have a warehouse of reports, which serves as a repository where they can be consulted whenever needed, adding AI capabilities that allow data to be linked together and improve the analysis and possible correlations of events.

Overall, the suite of benefits and more reasonable cost per user/license to the organization were the key components affecting our decision-making.

After several evaluations we concluded that the kasprsky provider has a solution for each processing environment we have.This impacts an excellent cost-benefit for achieving economies of scale on the company's infrastructure. On the other hand, we verified that during its operation, its level of effectiveness in terms of malware detection is excellent. Finally, it provides a desktop patch management solution that we found efficient and effective. Allowing you to automate the distribution of patches with a minimum staffing of technical personnel.

Incentivized

• Automating response task on suspicious activity
• Improving IT specialists skills and IS specialists skills
• Increased visibility of what malware really do on endpoint

• In mayor aspect, saving time for IT/Cybersecurity teams.
• Agile process to short the operations outages.
• Centralized view and relevant data for SOC team.
