We performed a comparison between Akamai Guardicore Segmentation and Darktrace based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about VMware, Cisco, Akamai and others in Cloud and Data Center Security."I found the solution to be stable."
"Guardicore Centra offers the best coverage specifically in backward compatibility with legacy operating systems."
"The real bonus is the fact that we can secure applications, all the way down to the individual services, on each host. It's actually more granular security than we can get out of a traditional firewall."
"We like the centralized management of the firewalls. Until we installed Guardicore Centra, we managed all our firewalls individually, so making changes was complicated, difficult, and time-consuming."
"The most valuable feature is the visibility of processes and connections."
"The label-based segmentation is the most valuable feature."
"This tool greatly helps in understanding the footprint of the attacks."
"Its deception features are great, providing a rich telemetry of lured origins, and are a great resource for any active defense strategy."
"The NDR is good in their solution and they have NTG for email."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is that it does not require human intervention to eliminate a threat."
"It's a very stable product."
"A very useful feature in Darktrace for real-time threat analysis is the packet inspection that analyzes the packet traffic in real time."
"The most valuable features of Darktrace are its full capabilities. You have visibility of everything."
"The Antigena feature is most valuable. Once it learns your environment, Antigena can step in and block a denial of service attack, a ransomware attack, or just about anything that doesn't belong in the environment. It can detect any type of attack that hits the environment because it understands what normal looks like for the network. It is very useful for an autonomous response."
"I have found the most valuable features to be artificial intelligence for cybersecurity, advanced machine learning capabilities, enterprise Immune System, Antigena Network, and Antigena Email. The way the solution detects the threat over the network before it spreads is very good. It notifies you of what the threat is exactly doing and gives you all the details about the execution of that application that had created the threat over your network."
"It is a stable solution."
"In our version, when using the terminal server, we cannot exclude user tasks for each session."
"Needs more customization of honeypots and a vaster catalog of systems able to be mimicked."
"Sometimes, the speed needs improvement, especially when it comes to the generation of maps, where it can be a bit slow."
"Kubernetes is not installed in the way we need it."
"Customers would want to see the cost improved."
"The dashboard needs improvement. It should be more flexible so that I can easily see what I want or need to see."
"Clients would like to see that the security policies of GuardiCore can continue to be comparable to all the major firewall players out there."
"It doesn't support a PAAC solution (Platforma as a service) in the cloud."
"Getting logs from different sources can be a challenge."
"In an upcoming release, there could be more customizable playbooks or a library of playbooks to choose from."
"It takes time to go through the interface and pick up things. If it were a more straightforward interface, then it would free up time."
"It's quite expensive to have."
"I would like to see some additional enhancements."
"The solution can improve the reporting."
"It is expensive, but everything else has been great so far."
"It would be good if they can include some endpoint protection for remote workers. Nowadays, most people are working remotely. Therefore, they should include some type of sensors that can be installed on the endpoint in order to directly report the main usage and protect remotely. Phone protection will also be a great feature to add to Darktrace."
