VMware Carbon Black vs. Symantec

Symantec

Bolted-on EDR

Without mature, integrated EDR and the ability to access devices remotely, Symantec has limited ability to prevent, detect or respond to advanced attacks.

 

Lacking Telemetry and Customizable Prevention

Symantec lacks the ability to utilize behavioral prevention telemetry to detect advanced threats. Furthermore, Symantec does not support customizable prevention and frequently misses non-malware, fileless attacks and behavioral ransomware.

 

Inflexible Controls and Limited Offline Features

Symantec lacks flexible policy control and has very limited ability to detect and prevent threats while offline. Also, Symantec does not provide real-time reputation, and their On/Off policy configuration cannot create exceptions in the event of false positives.

VMware Carbon Black

Cloud Native NGAV and EDR Solution

VMware Carbon Black Cloud provides customers with a cloud-based next-generation antivirus (NGAV) and endpoint detection and response (EDR) solution on a single agent, single console and single platform. With security built in, we take a proactive approach with automated prevention capabilities to identify and stop advanced attacks.

 

Superior Detection and Prevention

VMware Carbon Black Cloud stops advanced attacks and protects your endpoints with our lightweight, easy to use platform while keeping false positives low. We empower our customers with innovative detection and protection coupled with visibility into malicious activity and automated response.

 

Customizable Control, Endpoint Audit and Remote Remediation

VMware Carbon Black Cloud offers flexible policies for different groups of users and has the ability to detect and prevent threats when a persistent connection to the cloud is unavailable.

The problem with the Symantec script is it can only be run at a scheduled time. With VMware Carbon Black, I can tell it to deploy to a machine when it comes online.
