More effective at catching threats than tradition
Likeliness to Recommend
What differentiates VMware Carbon Black EDR from other similar products?
more effective at catching threats than traditional antivirus.s a result, EDR has become an essential tool for protecting corporate networks from sophisticated attacks. EDR, or behavior-based endpoint protection, is a type of security software that monitors the activity on a computer or device for suspicious behavior. An EDR agent is installed on the endpoint and constantly monitors for changes in behavior that could indicate the presence of malicious software.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
Response is used to investigate an endpoint. Investigate is a broad term and CarbonBlack allows us to perform numerous types of investigations. These range from finding out what happened on an endpoint, where, when, and how.
Pros
- Continually Improving Product
- Trustworthy
- Unique Features
- Efficient Service
