Overall Satisfaction with Adaptive Defense 360 / WatchGuard EPDR

I use the Adaptive Defense 360 solution on our workstations in all the company's units. We utilize important features such as USB blocking, zero-day threat protection, and the tool's monitoring features. Since the implementation of the solution, we have greatly reduced incidences of viruses on our network, and we have had a performance improvement on the workstations because Adaptive Defense 360 has little consumption of hardware resources. In my work, people were used to using external flash drives in the company, but specifically, some flash drives needed to be released for everyone, and we solved this problem with the Adaptive Defense 360 lock feature where it is possible to release only some specific devices.
  • USB device management.
  • Real-time threat detection.
  • Simplified and easy implementation.
  • Improvement in scheduled scanning function.
  • A quick button to activate/deactivate the agent at the station.
  • Function for release of executable as excess directly by the agent.
  • Cost reduction with antivirus.
  • Improved workstation performance with Panda 360 agent when compared to another antivirus.
Adaptive Defense 360 agent has lower consumption of workstation resources, simple and functional management console, and allows better management of USB devices. The speed of detection and action against threats is commendable, and the flexibility and simplification in the settings menus help it area in implementing and understanding the solution.

Would you buy Watchguard Endpoint Security again?

Yes

Because of the benefits and features of the tool, and ease of management. But it has improvements that need to be applied in some aspects, such as in the workstation agent, where the function of temporarily disabling the agent is a little confusing because when disabled a function and mark to cancel the changes on exit, the changes they do not seem to be canceled promptly.
With Adaptive Defense 360, it was possible to centralize all the management of workstation protection in a single simple and functional console, which caused agility and ease of management by the responsible area. It was also possible to act quickly on detection of infected machine issuing it from the network through the Adaptive Defense 360 agent.
A really necessary solution for corporate environments where you have several workstations and you need to maintain the security management of both in a centralized and easy way. Companies that have more than one unit need centralized management. Companies with low human resources also need a solution like this delivered by Adaptive Defense 360.
