Overall Satisfaction with Cylance
Cylance bridges the gap between traditional anti-virus solutions that often fall short when faced with our hyper-changing threat landscape. Leveraging machine learning and artificial intelligence, Cylance appears to be able to make decisions on the fly regarding the trustworthiness of a running application. While old staples like McAfee and Symantec will always remain, newcomers like Cylance continue to force businesses into rethinking strategy which ultimately leads to growth.
- Ease of deployment.
- Ease of administration.
- Very low false positive detection while finding things that other AV vendors would miss.
- The cloud interface leaves some to be desired but Cylance has continuously improved this as well.
- Compatibility with existing security products may hinder full utilization.
- Over saturation of advertisement may lead to increased skepticism.
- Increased visibility into threats that were otherwise undetected.
- Fast deployment with minimal administrative overhead.
- Cost inhibited full adoption.
