Deep analysis and accurate response to threats
Likeliness to Recommend
What differentiates Symantec Security Analytics from other similar products?
A solution that differs from others because it brings with it a large storage capacity, its implementation is flexible so it allows the user to decide if they want a license for a cloud or virtual implementation, its protection guarantees in depth analysis traffic so that only clean and legitimate traffic is handled, as well as being able to visualize the origin of the attacks, to be able to prepare to give a fast, precise and very clear response, in addition to its forensic analysis allowing to observe anomalous traffic behavior network in real time.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
What I like the most is that it makes possible the analysis of network traffic quickly and deeply, which allows abnormal behaviors to be visualized and what their origins are in order to give the answer that is most appropriate to face these threats, the one that has a more flexible implementation and, in addition to its integration with other Symantec software, includes a more powerful protection and according to any type of company.
What do you dislike most about this product?
Its analysis may be somewhat slow but I do not think it is a major inconvenience, because most of the time it is fast, also its controls are sometimes too strict, but as long as it does not allow abnormal traffic to pass, accept it is possible.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
Having this software is a vital point when it comes to guaranteeing maximum business protection, as it is usually somewhat strict with traffic but that means that its potential for trust increases, since it does not allow at least illegitimate traffic to pass, which avoids incidents in the business security.
