Mandiant Advantage Threat Intelligence vs. Webroot Endpoint Protection

Usually SOC leverages Intel from mutiple sources. The scenarios are: 1.Suitable: In large scale SOC where more than 5000 devices are being monitored and the tech stack is wide, Mandiant will play an excellent role in that scenario. 2.Not Suitable: In small scale SOCs wherein limited devices belonging to the same tech stack is being used then the analysts can rely on OSINT and it is not useful to buy the solution.

The software tends to do a good job of basic protection but is not the best for larger clients and is not as powerful as some others offered on the market today. The support is not the best either, have had a hard time getting assistance in the past trying to resolve issues.

• accelerated threat response feature, prioritizing threats according to requirement.
• Optimization of the threat intelligence , and can be integrated with 3rd party tools.
• Features like - Breach ,Adversary, Machine and Operational Intelligence.
• Mandiant dynamic host and the malware views along with indicators.

• It is very light weight and does not tax the computers resources
• Has a quick scan and does not take forevere when scanning
• It's central management on the web makes it easy to use and gives tons of control for Admins

Incentivized

• Paywalls exist throughout the data set and can halt an investigation without the right model
• Some data was incomplete or broken up between pay tiers
• Navigation through the data lacked a definitive trail or breadcrumbs to retrace steps during investigations

Incentivized

• There are several configuration options for both end-point and DNS protection. Would like a more simple way to understand and validate settings.
• Support is heavily video or FAQ based although you can submit a Support Ticket. Would like more availability to an actual support engineer.
• Overtime you can forget how to change setting - a refresher course would be nice, especially as new features are added to the solution.

It has proven successful so far in our environment for controlling malware/virus outbreaks.

Mandiant Advantage Threat Intelligence has a very usable platform, with well-differentiated sections for the analyst, as well as the possibility of cross-searching to obtain the desired results. All this is presented with an interface that is easy on the eye and not very messy, which increases productivity and the speed with which work is done.

Webroot Endpoint Protection has been great for us, as its simple, cloud-based management console allows us to quickly deploy easily monitor all of our endpoints. However, it could improve by offering more customizable reporting options for deeper insights into security events and the interface could also use some updating, as it feels a bit dated.

Support has been reliable up to this point. A request can easily be generated via the console and support responding in a reasonable time. We have not had any major issues other than the basic agents not communicating with the console and the like.

I had some difficulties with remote users. I ended up needing to open a remote tech support session and finish the process. Other than a few speed bumps, I was impressed with the engineering of the install. Because of time differences, I was done installing in two days. The cost, per license, could be less.

It gives more ways to analyze threats and options to fixed it. This device gives more visibility on vulnerability detection and its analysis. It provides detailed reports to have more information of all malwares which help us to increase overall security of our current organization

Webroot is good in a way that it is an all encompassing solution one stop shop for protecting endpoints but it needs to be managed and licensed. Some users do not need constant protection or need to have it on their machines in where the combination of Field Effect and Malwarebytes is more effective.

Incentivized

• Improved incident response time
• Specific investigations that have reduced the attack surface
• Technical reports on threats not controlled by the bank's local team

Incentivized

• The DNS filtering allows for a very granular configuration of endpoints
• The cost to benefit ratio is good. It is not a real EDR player yet, but the development looks promising
• Its best feature is integration with our MSP software, providing actionable tickets.
