Stability and reliability have improved in recent upgrades (4.x) to the point it is a non-issue.

These days, it's more stable than it was.

In the past, when we pushed out agents, we would experience issues with getting online updates. There were agents that would just lose connectivity and wouldn't report back. That required manual interaction, but that was in version 2.x. 

Now, it's pretty smooth. The updates have been happening and we can see all the nodes reporting back. The ones that are not reporting back are, of course, offline. Those are the ones where we try to determine if they are truly not connecting or they're just turned off.

Deep Instinct Prevention Platform did not initially provide me with an impression of its stability part. Over a certain time period of around three months, I saw that the tool understood our company's environment, after which the solution was able to provide us with critical alerts that were not picked up by the other products. The product initially required a lot of work and fine-tuning. After the product is fine-tuned, it works properly. The solution was able to provide some alerts that are not detected by other products in our company's environment.

The stability seems to be fine. Occasionally, we have to consider the brain of the solution, which is the component agent that goes to the endpoint. It remains stable because you're only pushing it out three or four times a year. Because it is not signature or EDR-based, you don't have updates.

Deep Instinct has proven to be a stable and reliable solution. We have had minimal issues with it. We're pushing it to our entire client base and rolling our endpoint protection solution on Deep Instinct.

Our implementation strategy - and we always advise our clients to do this with any product - is to take a subset of the environment and do a limited install on a handful of machines. The purpose is to uncover any existing or potential issues with line-of-business apps or any non-standard elements in the environment. The aspect which most people fail to consider is that when you add a more sophisticated cybersecurity-purposed tool, the more advanced capabilities will expose any existing shortcomings in the environment. Consequently, if you have not architected your environment correctly, these tools tend to expose those shortcomings. Most often, clients want to point a finger at the tool. The reality is that the tool is doing its job and there's some aspect of the network that it just brought to light.

I travel the country speaking at cybersecurity events, and will always remember a specific gentleman because I really had empathy for him. He asked a question out of frustration regarding a competing product, and what do you do when installing “Solution-X” and it blue-screens the entire environment. My first thought was, "Why are you installing into an entire environment without testing?"

Whether it's a premium, next-generation firewall at the edge or a premium solution on the endpoint, if there's an issue with the machine or something in the stack, it's going to have an effect. Why? Because delivering advanced-security services require the margins for error be minimal. They have to be. That's how you close gaps. So that pre-testing by installing in a subset, that proof of concept, is how you get clarity and certainty that you can deploy environment-wide without issues.

It's very stable. I haven't had any issues with the deployments, any performance issues, or conflicts with anything.

One exception was when one of my customers tried to do the install Deep Instinct, but their existing Bit Defender was detecting the solution as something trying to get into the environment. Obviously there was a conflict. We just whitelisted on both sides and both of them were talking to each other. They were augmented rather than competing.

It is quite stable. So far, there was one bug in a previous version, which I couldn't uninstall. I consulted with an Deep Instinct engineer, and they had a quick check, then spent 15 minutes easily fix it. 

Besides, that one issue, I haven't had any serious problems with the software.

For the moment, stability is not a question, for the amount that it is being used. We hope that it continues to be stable.
