Overall Satisfaction with Cb Defense

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Cb Defense is being used to stop 0-day threats and provide better antivirus/malware/spyware/pup protection than our old archaic AV. We are using the product across the organization effectively. We find the product easy to deploy and manage.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Provide analysis of where the the threat actually took place and how it worked it's way into the environment
Stopping unknown threats and reporting on them appropriately
Carbon Black support is a responsive team

Cons

Reporting for C-Level information
Tailored email alerts templates
Installation of the product needs third party tool for mass deployment

Return on Investment

Cb Defense has had a positive impact on the business objectives since we've been able to check off "advanced threat prevention".

Alternatives Considered

Cylance, Invincea and Digital Guardian Platform

Cb Defense was easy to use and configure and the price point was perfectly acceptable. The company is trusted in the EDR space.

Other Software Used

McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator, Mimecast Secure Email Gateway, Palo Alto Networks PA-500

Likelihood to Recommend

Cb Defense is well suited for any active end user environment; downloading files, browsing internet, checking email and attachments. Though, I don't see as much of an added value in the server space since the product will not stop Exploits (that's not its function) and no one browses the internet a server.
