Digital Guardian vs. WatchGuard XCS (Discontinued)

Digital Guardian has excellent data-preventing solutions, which locate and protect [that] database that [is] super sensitive. More so, Digital Guardian offers complete coverage of endpoint safety and network monitoring. Again, Digital Guardian has a team of elite professionals, who screens and detect any cyber threats. Finally, Digital Guardian has improvised and detailed attack response, very efficient in making the right controls.

I like it because it tends to block out some of the things that shouldn't get in our inboxes, but they somehow end up in our mailboxes sometimes, not a big deal. The main thing that needs to be blocked out is any phishing and it keeps those emails out!

• Email data leaks - DLP software must prevent certain actions to work well. Let's say you try to copy and paste an SS # to an email, or upload sensitive data to your personal email account. Guardian Edge can prevent that, and then alert administrators that it happened
• Unauthorized file copies - Guardian Edge can also prevent users from copying files from a sensitive restricted area to somewhere else where they might be able to more easily exfiltrate it. A good example would be from a company file share to a less secure server or their own home drive
• Alerting Administrators of suspicious activities - Any time a user uploads a file to an upload service or personal email, it is logged and reported as an event to be reviewed. If it found nothing in scanning the data, it will still notify you that it happened so you can review it yourself to confirm it wasn't a false negative.

DG is the only DLP platform I've used at my current employer. I used it at my previous employer as well, and we ended up abandoning future deployments of it due to many problems caused by it, especially with web browsers. This was in 2015, rather than the 2018 version I used with my current employer, but I feel it still warrants mentioning. DG works great...when it works. When it doesn't, it's a disaster.

I suggest WatchGuard because they offer so much. They offer the way to keep email and websites blocked that don't belong and they also help us connect to the server whenever we remote in from work. Everything is done with so much ease and there is not any hassle.

Incentivized

• The professional threat detectors and cyber security analysts [increase] the reliability of the company database.
• Cloud coverage allows easy deployment and efficient systematic controls.
• Lastly, Digital Guardian [values] and monitors the procedures or the roles that every player makes in the company.

Incentivized

• It helps our computers be safe.
• Less worrying about IT fixing bugs on computers.
• Their beliefs are inline with ours.
