Find out what your peers are saying about Secureworks, Check Point Software Technologies, Ace Cloud Hosting and others in Managed Security Services."Collaborating with IBM's experts has fine-tuned our security processes and incident response capabilities."
"Securworks' threat intel seems pretty decent, and they integrate with several solutions we have, such as Azure AD, so all our Microsoft 365 stuff is covered."
"There are some patent pending detectors within the platform that provides a lot of value."
"The initial setup was very straight forward."
"The most valuable feature is the fast alerting and response time."
"The most valuable feature is the support. The support chat. It's always connecting to people. And you open the chat, and it's not about that automated response. It's actually a human being that responds to you."
"The pricing is flexible."
"We can easily isolate affected machines in the network."
"We don't have a full SOC, so it's helpful to have them sifting through our alerts and only bringing actionable items to us."
"While IBM Managed Security Services have proven to be highly effective, one area that could be improved is the user interface and overall user experience."
"Tamper-proofing or tamper protection is still pending in Secureworks. Tamper protection will make it more secure. If I'm an admin of a device, I can uninstall an agent without the knowledge of the security or Secureworks admin. If someone gets hold of one endpoint with admin credentials, he can remove anything, and an organization will lose visibility. They need to work on providing more visibility across endpoints. A couple of times it has happened that the cloak agent is there, but it did not get activated, or there were some issues. The machine was restarted, but the cloak agent didn't run. In such cases, you have to troubleshoot. It is a big issue if a cyber attack is happening, and your machine is rebooted, but the events are not captured."
"The deployment could definitely be improved."
"In the next release of this solution, I would like to see file integrity monitoring."
"Dell Secureworks is for higher-end customers and it's not quite as straightforward to implement or to get up and running as some of the other solutions."
"The integration would look better with other products, with other EDRs, with other firewalls, with other older versions of firewalls, and the versions of software and hardware."
"Dell Secureworks could improve its integration with other third-party solutions."
"We did a PoC of their next-gen antivirus product, but it wasn't ready yet. It was underdeveloped and caused a lot of issues. We'd like to move away from Carbon Black, but they said that it's probably still not to a point where we'd be happy with it. Carbon Black and RedCloak seem to work fine for us."
"The integration with the Carbon Black sensor could be better. ManagedXDR doesn't seem to know how to extract the forensic data from an endpoint that was quarantined by Carbon Black."
