More Secureworks Red Cloak Threat Detection and Response [EOL] Pros →

"I like the historical features, interface, and integration.""The solution has a very nice API on the back end for remoting into a system and executing scripts or utilizing self automation.""I rate Carbon Black CB Defense an eight out of ten for the ease of its initial setup.""I like its reporting.""I like its protection very much. It protects and allows us to lock the environment pretty tightly. Nothing that is not approved through Carbon Black can run in the environment. There is no default. Everything goes through Carbon Black Protect, and everything has to be first approved. Every software is considered to be guilty before prove innocent.""The most valuable feature is that it detects and stops malicious executables.""The most valuable asset is the time-lining capability for any breach activity.""The initial setup was fairly easy."

Cons
"There are some automated network response portions that we want to turn up."

More Secureworks Red Cloak Threat Detection and Response [EOL] Cons →

"This solution works well but needs lots of tuning and optimization.""The directions for Splunk are spot on, but it is difficult to find anything on integration with AlienVault,""I am not sure whether Carbon Black CB Defense can be considered as a stable solution or not.""In the past, we've seen some stability issues in the latest version releases. We tend to hang back one version just to make sure issues are fully resolved to avoid user disruption.""Its compatibility can be improved. It did crash a server during deployment, which is not something that I want to happen. Its deployment should also be easier. The whole deployment cycle needs to be simplified. It is an enterprise solution, and to set it up right now, you have to be an expert.""The endpoint machines need improvement.""As far as I know, Carbon Defense has nothing that can be installed on mobile devices. It lacks a defense solution for mobile devices, especially mobile tablets. I would like to see support for mobile devices and the pricing should be less than the pricing for a normal workstation.""Sensor deployment requires extensive fine-tuning, and creating deployment packages is time-consuming."

Pricing and Cost Advice
Information Not Available
  • "​The cost/benefit factor has great relevance in Cb Defense implementations​."
  • "The cost is a considerable factor, but the benefit factor is the most important. When you compare it with other products, the price is high. Carbon Black will negotiate the price."
  • "I am not really involved in the pricing of this product. But, from my understanding, it is OK for us."
  • "Carbon Black might be a touch more expensive than Symantec. They tend to get a premium for their capabilities. They're sort of an industry leader in a lot of areas with the functionality that they provide."
  • "We have branches, we have different companies, but we cannot buy less than 100 licenses. This does not make sense to me... It should be more flexible. I can understand their saying, "Okay, to be a customer you need 100," but to add on to that number it should be something very straightforward. If I need to add five, for example, I shouldn't need to add 100."
  • "The pricing [is] more or less the same as other similar solutions."
  • "It's reasonable in price"
  • "The price for the solution is completely at government level, meaning one which is very high."
