The solution is limited to a few classes, but it helps discover CIs and assets
Tanium is primarily used for CMDV (Configuration management database) discovery. Tanium is meant to discover CIs and assets It's a good tool, but that's about it. It's like any other discovery tool. It's very detailed, and it will allow you to do hardware and software. I was using it in a very…

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

"I think that all the features are valuable for our environment."
"It performs quite well as a firewall protection provider."
"It's flexible, and Kaspersky Endpoint Security's performance is good. Also, the pricing is fine."
"The performance is good. It doesn't use a lot of resources, which is crucial for us."
"When comparing Kaspersky Endpoint Security to any other solution, Our customers like mostly the reliability, and the ability to defend against viruses, worms, and attacks. It is easy to use and very light on the end-user machine's resources."
"I have found the security, device, web and application controls to be the most valuable features."
"I like the tool's incident response and security patching."
"For incident response tasks, all these tasks can get done in minutes with minimal disruption to the end-user."
"Tanium's most valuable feature is its instant discovery aspect."
"Tanium's most valuable features are patch management, inventory, and distribution software."
"The solution is scalable and helps to understand how infrastructure works. It helps to improve the health of the organization."
"Tanium’s linear-chain architecture is valuable."
"The product is granular and can build complex roles compared to other EDR vendors."
"Threat hunting is a very good feature on Tanium. We have just started using it and have not used it extensively."
 

Cons

"I think cloud security and SASE are areas of concern in the product where improvements are required. The tool's cloud version has to be improved in terms of the security it offers."
"We've encountered challenges during API deployment, occasionally resulting in unstable environments."
"Intelligence aspects need improvement"
"Integration with Azure and SaaS provisioning tools could improve Fortinet FortiEDR."
"The support needs improvement."
"Once, we had an event that was locked and blocked, but information about it came to us two or three days later."
"The amount of usage, the number of details we get, or the number of options that can be tweaked is limited in comparison to that with other EDR solutions"
"The security should be strong for the cloud. Some applications are on-prem and some are on the cloud. Fortinet should also have strong security for the cloud. There should be more security for the cloud."
"As far as improvements, maybe the licensing could be cheaper, but I think this solution is pretty okay."
"There have been some performance issues. They provide good security, but this slows down the performance of machines' servers. The software is not updating as frequently as we need."
"They should continue to put more security measures in place in order to make it more robust."
"We are having some troubles because some American companies we work with don't want to work with Kaspersky."
"I find it to be slow on my end and would like to see that improve. I think the e-learning portal can be updated because it's been disabled due to an upgrade. The data could be updated as well. I also think that pricing could be improved."
"I would like for Kaspersky to generate reports when it detects issues such as malware."
"It would be better if it were more secure and stable. I would also like to see more powerful features in the next release."
"Maybe the solution's monitoring could be improved with more dashboards, so there's no back and forth, back and forth."
"Any movement into a SaaS solution has challenges since the processes and data flows are not well defined. Hence, you need to build it at the same time."
"The solution needs to improve the reporting and tracking capabilities."
"They could improve the UI."
"The solution lacks mobility."
"The most painful thing is the interface. It's a bit unclear sometimes."
"The reporting could be improved."
"It is not really additional functions, or the features that are needed, rather the complexity would be reduced based on the number of modules required to put together a comprehensive operational security and risk compliance model."
"The solution can give a lot of false positives."
