Kaspersky EDR Optimum vs. ThreatDown, powered by Malwarebytes

I’m convinced that the key is guaranteeing the 100% of coverage, with the best configuration possible and without pain or hit at resource consumption and harmonies performance.I would like that the solution detecting, inventorying, and alerting about some host/device unknow or don’t register in KSC. Don’t depend on Device Detection function.

I would absolutely recommend Malwarebytes Endpoint Protection to a colleague and I have recommended it to many of my peers in the IT world. Malwarebytes is well suited for any environment that requires protection from mal/ransomware which is most companies these days. In particular for companies that host their own big data that the operation of the company relies on. The only place Malwarebytes Endpoint Protection may not be AS appropriate would be one where there is near zero reliance on computers, networks and data.

• KEDR Optimum is helping to see threat kill chain formation, which helps to get clear picture of the what exactly attacker was trying to do during attack.
• We are crating prevent execution rules to block the threat in our complete infra.
• Ioc scan to validate and remove the any active threat entry from our endpoints

• The biggest plus with this software is that you can manage all the clients from a management console. You can push the install/updates through it. If the client cannot connect to the management console, then it will update directly from their website. This means you are always up to date and protected.
• The software on the client machine has very low overhead so it doesn't affect the performance.
• You can create policies based on the types of users or by the department. You can customize these policies so it will let you micro-manage the clients.

• Agent package size is little big, if it can be optimize with lite package would be great
• If possible Host Integrity functionality can be added, to take action as quarantine the non-compliance machine to connect our enterprise network
• Many times KSC cloud operating slow, if it can optimized for the faster response

Incentivized

• poor customer service
• dashboard says product is working EVEN THOUGH IT WAS NOT!
• slow response to concerns that should be easy to remedy
• creates baggage which caused certain computers and the network to run more slowly
• caused 3 computers on our network top have windows errors and network issues

At the moment and unfortunately we'll not renew our licenses, due to the Russian conflict and the company policy that has forced us to get rid of any Russian related product. Before that incident, we were very happy with the product and we did not even think once about changing it... Maybe on the future...

When I first used the tool in my home systems MANY years ago, I wished for a Business version. I was once at a focus group for a major antivirus company, and one attendee’s feedback to “what could we do better?” was “buy out MalwareBytes and add it to your tool”. I’ve used the Business version since it first became available, and have continued to be a dedicated user through the many iterations and improvements

It simply works. It doesn't require the hand-holding and monitoring that some other solutions do. It's simple to deploy and maintain, and adding custom content such as Exceptions require minimal effort. I’ve had to add a few exceptions for internal-use, in-house-developed tools, but it’s quite simple to do so within the online interface

This item can always be improved, perhaps by pre-elaborating very long reports, such that they are built progressively so that when the user wants to consult them, the delay is minimal. It would also be interesting to have a warehouse of reports, which serves as a repository where they can be consulted whenever needed, adding AI capabilities that allow data to be linked together and improve the analysis and possible correlations of events.

Whenever I've had a query for the support team, they have got back to me very quickly, and given me very well detailed advice on fixing whatever the issue I had was. They also pointed me to help documents and such where I could find more information if I needed

I first implemented this more than 10 years ago, when it required an in-site setup with SQL Server (or SQL Express), and even that was pretty easy. With the move to centralized web management some treats ago, it’s become even easier to deploy

Kaspersky EDR Optimum is the evolution of Kaspersky Endpoint Bussiness, a more complete product, which runs the same software on Windows 11 and Windows Server. Now, we already use Kaspersky Sandbox on-premises, which has now been unified with KEDR as Cloud Sandbox. These improvements and unifications have made life easier for Security administrators.

I think Malwarebytes Endpoint Protection is hands down better from any point of view other than price. Malwarebytes is a little bit more costly than Webroot. However, Malwarebytes detects more threats, protects against more malicious URL's, allows more in customization of policies, has better administration GUI, and has better means of implementation.

• In fact very positive, Advanced Threat Detection engine is strong
• gives clear visibility as well and option respond on active threat immediately, Nice
• Also implemented, Default deny using application control
• Worth buying in single solution, many features

• Other than over billing our company by $6,821.76, our clients are very happy with our approach to network security and malware protection
• Our service and lack of data breaches (do in part to Malwarebytes) has allowed us to retain our client base for over two decades.
