Challenges With Using Trellix Endpoint Security Products
Difficult to Use
Customers report that deploying Trellix endpoint security products is complicated, time-consuming, and expensive. ThreatDown offers a simple installation process and ongoing automated implementation guidance provided by our built-in Security Advisor.
Inadequate Attack Surface Coverage
Trellix offers a number of standalone endpoint security tools but does not provide key adjacent security protection like vulnerability assessment, patch management or DNS filtering. ThreatDown provides bundles with much broader attack surface coverage.
Lack of Ransomware Rollback Protection
If your environment is impacted by ransomware, it is important that your endpoints can be restored to a time prior to the attack to minimize damage. ThreatDown provides the ability to restore your endpoints to seven days before the attack took place.
Why choose ThreatDown over Trellix?

Simple Operations
