Switching to VMware Carbon Black Cloud at our organization has made a big difference. We made the switch from Fortinet to Carbon Black Cloud primarily for detection, stability, and ease of use. We are way better at catching and stopping cyber threats compared to using Fortinet.

We switched because of the effectiveness of Carbon Black. The software has a feature that it does not remove a threat but it kills their effect. 

Then later, you can do the scan in the night or the next day. I don't want to make the killing an unwatched process until the IT professionals decide what to do as a next step. 

Carbon Black stops malware from spreading. It stops the spreading of bad effects from illicit users, viruses, and malware.

We did not have a similar, previous solution that we were replacing. This was part of an initial push we were trying to make at the time into better systems security.

Security-wise, we are using a few different security tools for different purposes. We use Red Cloak which we deployed at the same time as Carbon Black. We tested and are using Trend Micro Tripwire and we are using Imperva as well. Red Cloak is very similar to Carbon Black.  

This system is the only one I have used.
