"The case interface is Binary Defense MDR's most valuable feature."
"The most valuable part of Binary Defense is its team of cybersecurity analysts. Their analysts filter out the noise and only forward the critical threats that require a response instead of false positives."
"The best part about Binary Defense MDR is that it runs on everything, and they keep an eye on things 24/7."
"Binary Defense's most valuable feature is the 24/7 monitoring and threat hunting. Their team checks the latest breaches and how they're done."
"With Binary Defense, we don't just get an alert, but also a detailed rundown of why they're alerting us on it. They tell us what was executed, or the username, script, or IP. That way, we're not wasting time investigating."
"The customization has been the most valuable aspect and was really the reason we ended up selecting Binary Defense. They worked with us to provide exactly the level of support, features, response, and collaboration we needed."
"The most valuable features are the SIEM and the ticketing function; the latter is very smooth and easy to read and understand. We don't have any issues looking at the ticketing information when we're trying to identify what's going on."
"The greatest value of MDR involves the tests, reporting and alerts, so that we may respond immediately."
"The valuable features are threat hunting, threat intelligence feeds, and it culls all the activities of the endpoint. Additionally, the ML and AI engines are really good."
"The installation process is quick and easy."
"Carbon Black provides an overview of all our assets and their status."
"The near real-time review translates into near real-time action. So, in addition to alerting, Red Canary MDR has response playbooks built out."
"The solution works well for what we use it for and the support and protection are good."
"The most valuable features of Red Canary MDR are its modeled after the MITRE ATT&CK framework and we can easily automate the containment of the endpoint. Additionally, it is easy to use and we have never had an issue with it."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is its automation part."
"The valuable features of this solution are it integrates well with different EDR software, such CrowdStrike, and Carbon Black, and the information it provides is helpful."
"We found a couple of bugs in the user interface."
"Binary Defense MDR could be even better with additional features, like automatic scans and file quarantine."
"If I were shopping for an MDR solution today, I would not only look for a company that has the ability to alert, detect, and remediate, but also the ability to integrate vulnerability management. That's a big thing that they're lacking today."
"We should be able to isolate devices faster. They should shorten the time between clicking on a device to contain it and carrying out the action. That would be a welcome improvement."
"We found that an earlier version of the agent had high memory usage and that was a bit concerning, but we raised the concern with their support team and they immediately replied that they had noticed the same thing and had a candidate fix already available... it totally fixed the issue."
"I would like to see more frequent check-ins with our security status."
"The only area I see for improvement with Binary Defense is their service portal. It could benefit from some enhancements."
"It's sometimes difficult to know when to engage Binary Defense or TrustedSec, their sister company. TrustedSec is more focused on offensive security, as opposed to the defensive security that the MDR solution provides. It would be awesome if there were a better bridge between that relationship for when we need to get more proactive services or when we need to do a penetration test."
"As the solution has changed hands, I expect some changes in licensing and in support. It remains to be seen if that will be good or bad."
"In the future, it would be great if they could provide endpoint management and the ADR solution together in this package."
"Carbon Black's support could be better."
"The price could always be better."
"The most valuable feature of Red Canary MDR is the overall threat protection it provides."
"I would like there to be an on-premise version of this solution for our data centers because of the proliferation of online threats."
"There should be an easier way to update agents to new levels in Red Canary MDR. However, it is not a huge issue but it would help."
"In general, the solution currently fails to provide a summary to its users."
