Overall Satisfaction with Mandiant Advantage Security Validation

We need to get a full look across all networks to improve our visibility and identify all attack surfaces vs our controls in-place to protect against them. Getting clear visibility to where threats are due to any type of control deficiency - unpatched vulnerability, IT scope creep, unauthorized system added to our network, etc. Super helpful!

Mandiant is focused on a clear view of the environment, vulnerabilities, and threats. Palo Alto is a great tool for some of this, but was not mature enough at the time of our initial eval. The new version of Palo Alto looks much more robust and capable and we will definitely re-evaluate it before renewal with Mandiant. If you already have Palo in your environment, it's an even more compelling case.
Being able to get a lot of detailed information about different attacks and different tactics for specific attack types and threat actors is very helpful. Mandiant Support was a bit of a struggle - they need to increase support staffing and capabilities without having to wait for escalations. Overall a good tool, but could be better.
It is well-suited to larger enterprise environments and less well-suited to small businesses. You need some level of maturity to be able to fully utilize this tool, but overall it is fairly easy to get fully up and running within the environment, which is really nice. Well-suited if you have the budget for it and it saves on staff time to perform these functions. Not well-suited if you don't have a good budget in-place for your environment size.
