What differentiates Symantec Enterprise Cloud from other similar products?

It is true that this program is effective at preventing internal data loss. It is used to stop data loss that might happen within the firm via endpoint channels, the web, or email. of the top DLP items. Additionally, it may be linked with already-existing solutions like share file and proxy thanks to ICAP integration.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

We receive total safety because Symantec employs distinct servers for each of its products. I like Symantec data loss prevention since it offers complete security for the sensitive data belonging to our organization as well as protection or security for endpoints, the cloud, storage, and connections, allowing us to simply prevent data loss. Since then, there have been no data breaches or leaks.

What do you dislike most about this product?

It could use greater anti-phishing protection, in my opinion. This security program is said to have certain weak points, but I haven't personally run into them so I can't really comment on them. Make sure the documents you categorize are used in the categorization component's following stage, which is the formulation of rules.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

It offers a variety of data filtering and categorization techniques to make sure that sensitive information is securely safeguarded. It has been widely adopted in our company, and until something is detected, users aren't even aware that it exists. The interface of the new version 14 is also a good upgrade, and it offers more information about the health of the database, the state of the agents, and grouping for DLP policies.

Overall experience is excellent

What differentiates Symantec Enterprise Cloud from other similar products?

The cloud console's interface is a little shaky and occasionally difficult to use. When you first start using it, it is largely irritating. However, it is simple to use moving forward once you get beyond the initial setup and create your profiles. When you deploy it to a user, you may customize their profile group, decide whether they need to share files and printers, lock down USB devices, and access other useful features. With the exception of a few minor issues, it has generally been a wonderful experience.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

Endpoint security protects the endpoints on a network, which are frequently defined as end-user gadgets like smartphones, laptops, and desktop PCs. However, hardware like servers in a data centre are also regarded as endpoints, and endpoint security verifies each packet that enters and exits the network.

What do you dislike most about this product?

Compared to other vendors, the annual renewal fee is slightly higher. 2. The CPU resources used for the scan process range from 30 to 40 percent. 3. When accessing files and data, the laptop becomes sluggish.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

It is incredibly simple to deploy and manage as a managed client endpoint or a stand-alone endpoint installation. Automatic updates and a highly effective built-in firewall are both provided. Since McCrappy was replaced throughout our whole organization (an enterprise class healthcare organization with numerous hospitals and ambulatory care facilities), I have only sometimes had issues with Symantec products. However, given the current state of Ransomeware, I strongly advise tying your endpoint antivirus to a cloud database for real-time and zero-day scanning and repair. Symantec is among the most experienced and esteemed competitors in the m
