It prevents our environment against threats and helps us to track those threats, like malware, advanced persistent threats, command and control, etc. Investigations are graphical and easy to do, saving time for our analysts. It has lots of bugs, with some false positives. Their support has space for improvement.

Alternatives Considered

McAfee Total Protection

It doesn't rely on signatures, most parts of their detection are behavior-based, and their marketing says that they have the lowest false positive rate in the market. It composes our server and notebooks endpoint solutions to protect against external threats and block internal threats, beyond blocking users from using forbidden applications and activities.

Likelihood to Recommend

Cybereason is good at detections and has some false positives, but when we need their support, it's too slow. My team used to test Cybereason, submitting lots of malware and threats, trying to find problems, and for research purposes. In my experience, every time we found a bug, their support team denied the problems and took lots of weeks to give some answer when we insisted.

Cybereason is good, but has space for improvement
