Scenarios where it's well suited - 1) AWS cloud environments where application security and ZTN is a must. 2) One-stop-shop for centralized discovery of apps/workloads. 3) Custom reporting client needs. 4) CI/CD pipeline - easy to design DevOps cycles.

Cb Protect is best suited somewhere where you want to maximize the lockdown of workstations. So moving past no local admin rights to blocking specific applications and peripherals. The idea would be to have a list of applications you want to run, and then anything else is not able to be used. As stated prior, if you have a very fluid environment where you are having all sorts of new applications installed frequently (I feel for you!!) this is still do-able, but it misses the general idea. I think especially in environments that are more sensitive to new applications, like banks, healthcare systems etc, this is a good fit. The ability to look at application levels, drift, unapproved software etc is very useful.

Cons
Trend Micro
  • Found a tad difficult in case of hybrid cloud environments - VMware specific etc
  • API calls did not work well with only a few applications ( SNOW etc), most of it is fine
  • Professional services / Support - dedicated customer support should be more proactive, flexible

1) flexible customer support and PoV assistance as compared to other vendors 2) Quick TAT turnaround, and easy sampling - Automation features are smooth to use and leverage 3) Our client was interested in this solution since they heard it from one of their other partners from USA - So, this solution was already a step ahead, we just had to pick it up and get used to it

The big difference between Protect and Barkly/AMP is how exactly it goes about what it's doing. Protect is application whitelisting and program reputation. So the way it's protecting you is using a proprietary reputation service, and hash values to identify applications, and then hitting a list of whitelisted programs to decide if you are able to run that or not, based on the policy you are in. There is a LOT of value in that. We actually are working on transitioning to Cisco Advanced Malware Protection (AMP). The main reason is cost (about the same cost as Cb Protect, but with (most of) the featureset of all 3 Carbon Black products for less than 1/3 of the total spend. AMP works differently, looking at a reputation service powered by Cisco's Talos cloud. You don't really have application whitelisting, but that also reduces how many "requests" you get for applications. So I'll have to find a different way to do whitelisting and USB blocking and the like, but I'm getting more visibility across my network and also built in antivirus (TETRA engine - ClamAV with some work). Barkly is an add that we are looking to put in as it looks at behavior of programs. So specifically it watches for privilege elevation and the like. Thus far all the big name problem children (WannaCry, other ransomware problems) have been caught natively in Barkly day 0.
