Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The ransomware and malware protection is the most valuable feature.""It shows us the risky sign-ins, and if a user's password has been compromised.""Defender provides useful alerts and groups them. It sends an alert to your portal if it detects any malicious activity, and you can group multiple alerts to form an incident.""Ensures that I'm working with a product that gets updated regularly without me having to remember to do it. Since it's a Microsoft product, I'm confident that it requires a low use of system resources. The benefit of that being that my computer isn't constantly being drained.""The best thing I like about it is its interaction with the other Defender products. It provides the ability to push telemetry up. It gives me endpoint visibility and allows me to take automated actions.""This is a very go, proactive solution to threat protection using advanced analysis.""Its simplicity is the most valuable. It also has very good integration. We like it.""The biggest benefit to Windows Defender is that it is built-in to the operating system by Microsoft."

Cons
"Its detection is not as quick. There should also be more frequent updates.""There could be an increase in security for the solution.""It needs to improve the cybersecurity for lateral movements. For example, when a hacker tries to enter a machine, they try to get the password by doing a lateral movement.""The price, in general, could always be a little bit cheaper.""Its interface can be improved a little bit. We would like to have some sort of centralization. It should have something like a central server that is managing all the other clients. There are solutions from Kaspersky or ESET NOD32 that are really doing this kind of thing currently. We would like to see something similar from Microsoft.""The solution should be updated by Microsoft with new features from time to time.""I wish they would extend the use of the Security Central portal, even for the free option of Defender. Because, as companies grow, it is labor intensive to manage the AV and detection part of it. For companies already subscribed to Office 365, I think this would be a good enhancement.""Defender's cloud integration could be improved."
