(1-3 of 3)- Password Manager.
- Security and online support experts.
- Uses a lot of CPU resources, making it unviable for less powerful systems.
- It takes time to scan the system in standard mode on older, limited computers.

Quick and accurate endpoint security software
- Detecting threats with accuracy.
- Immediate scan of removable drives which often are notorious threat vectors.
- Can scan for limited software vulnerabilities.
- Stable.
- Being able to throttle its scan performance centrally, it can suck up CPU for workstations and laptops during scheduled full scans.
- Less CPU usage - It was removed from all our servers in favor of Microsoft System Center Endpoint Protection as all our virtual servers were literally squeezed of their CPU usage by the application.
- Installation is two fold, agent and the endpoint protection software.

- Threats are detected with accuracy, no false positives from our experience.
- Heuristics are very sharp and work very well so they can flag unusual behavior.
- Manage and deploy or uninstall endpoint protection software and agent laptops and workstations centrally.
- Be able to detect and patch third party products' vulnerability as we use Microsoft System Center which finds vulnerabilities only for its products.
- Saved money on 3rd party application vulnerability scanners.
- Networking skills.
- Endpoint security fundamentals.
- Patch management.
- Basic security protocols e.g removable drives banned and known to be notorious in spreading malware etc.
- Firewall basics.
- Protection from security threats.
- Detect and patch 3rd party software vulnerabilities like notorious Adobe Flash.
- Control application usage. For example, users can only use approved software from the business, unapproved software is blocked and this reduces attack surface area where if everyone could install any application they want which could carry malware, ransomware, etc.
- Use the product to augment Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager to patch products (non-Microsoft).
- Easily control applications vs the Microsoft built-in Application Locker which can be complex.
- Installation on virtual Servers as there is an improvement in terms of performance on newer Kaspersky Endpoint Security.
- Better integration (we are using Kaspersky Endpoint Protection 10.x) with Cisco ISE as there is a problem to automatically invoke automatic download of database updates. Upgrading to version 11 could provide better integration
- Price
- Product Features
- Third-party professional services
- Uproar from users who were now blocked from using software that was now not approved as the business was now putting controls of what software can be used and this includes total ban on removable storage devices and Bluetooth
- User disgruntlement as they were not in control of what is in their workstations and laptops anymore
- Making sure only approved software is used in the business
- Detecting and patching 3rd party software (non-Microsoft) for the business for no additional cost
- Agents hardly have issues on laptops and workstations
- Installation of two components ie. agent and endpoint security software
- Not integrated (we are using Endpoint Security 10.x) properly with posture check (requirements: Kaspersky Endpoint Security Installed and Database files have to be <7 days old) when you have Cisco ISE in the network to allow compliant machines access to the network and non complaint denied access and put on Remediation network, the software does not automatically download updates.
- Computer discovery can be incorrect if you use it for computer inventory especially on a computer domain
Did not provide the level of remote endpoint management we needed for a growing mobile workforce
- Easy to schedule routine scans of systems.
- Offers a way to selectively scan specific file(s) on-demand.
- Provides a central management server to monitor and control endpoint deployment and maintenance.
- In our installation, the management server was on our LAN. This made it difficult to manage those devices that did not "check-in" very often. This resulted in some systems' information to be out-dated in the console.
- There is not a way to view live security events on an endpoint. We would often learn from the user of the endpoint that they were observing an issue.
- When an endpoint was relocated to a different network e.g. a home vs. corporate network, the switching of network policies not always went as expected resulting in the enforcement of the incorrect policy.

- It reduced the incidents of infections and so reduced the efforts needed by the IT department to mitigate problems.
- It made it difficult to manage the security of our growing mobile user base due to infrequent contact with our on-premise management server.
