"McAfee NSP is much more stable than Cisco.""The initial setup is straightforward.""It has a lot of functions, such as firewall. We are administrators, and we create some rules to protect our network. We also monitor the traffic in and out and have disk encryption on-premises. When we detect malware, we scan for the virus on the PC. We can then delete or block the malware.""There's a good dashboard you can drill down into. It helps you easily locate intrusions and the source of attacks.""The most valuable features are the customization of the signature and the unlimited amount of signatures in IPS.""The ability to centrally manage all the IPS sensors, track the different security events generated by it, and customize the different policies, depending on their location.""Overall the solution is very good. It offers great protection and gives us a good overview of what is on the network.""The most valuable features in Trellix for me are the automated signature updates. It is a great and convenient feature."

    Overview

    Cognitive Threat Analytics (CTA) enhances web security with breach detection and analytics to stop threats in the network. Online threats have become increasingly sophisticated, targeted attacks are on the rise, and cybercriminals launch their campaigns through a variety of vectors. They can serve up malvertising and deploy exploit kits that install rootkits. They can establish a botnet presence within your infrastructure. Once cybercriminals establish a foothold, more than 90 percent of their threats use the web. There, they can establish channels for command-and-control communications and exfiltrate sensitive information. Analyzing more than 10 billion web requests daily, Cisco Cognitive Threat Analytics finds malicious activity that has bypassed security controls, or entered through unmonitored channels (including removable media), and is operating inside an organization’s environment. Cognitive Threat Analytics is a cloud-based product that uses machine learning and statistical modeling of networks. It creates a baseline of the traffic in your network and identifies anomalies. It analyzes user and device behavior, and web traffic, to discover command-and-control communications, data exfiltration, and potentially unwanted applications operating in your infrastructure.

    Block More Intrusions
    Stop new and unknown attacks with signature-based and signature-less intrusion prevention systems. Signature-less intrusion detection finds malicious network traffic and stops attacks where no signatures exist.

    Unify Virtual and Physical Security
    Support network virtualization across private and public cloud platforms to scale security and evolve with changing IT dynamics.

    Maximize Security and Performance
    Scale hardware performance to speeds up to 100 Gbps and leverage data from multiple products.
