Microsoft Defender for IoT vs. Ordr

Suited in almost all situations as it has a server less option where if your end device cannot bear the load of an agent, it could be used to protect the network. The comprehensive dashboarding and its integration with Microsoft Defender 365 and Sentinel allows automated remediation and full incident investigation at a single pane. If you don't have a 24*7 SOC team this ca come handy as you can automate workbooks and scripts to run with custom triggers. I haven't faced any scenario where it is not a suitable choice.

It works extremely as a monitoring tool and creating access control policies. This function works flawless for us. I do have issues with its other functions such as phishing activity and malware activity. It is being billed as having these great wonderful functions but I have not seen the proof that these actual do anything at all other than have an RNG to make it look like like its doing something. Frankly I am extremely unimpressed with these functions and the lack of transparency from Ordr on how this information is gathered.

Defender being native to MS was the decision maker for us.

• Positive: With the influx of IoT device organisations in general, we have seen significant demand of the product and hence a good revenue
• Negatively, sometimes, some preview features may significantly change or stop working, which causes client frustration
• Overall, keeping the distrust in preview features aside, 99% of the times, defender hits the right spot!
