See why customers choose TrendAI™ over Microsoft

Microsoft
Protection

A complete solution with a broad range of security capabilities for endpoint, network, email, and cloud environments, fully integrated and developed from the ground up to deliver powerful Security Operations protection.

Microsoft’s suite of security solutions demonstrates strong performance and protection capabilities. Microsoft’s security platform is, however, designed primarily for Microsoft environments, making integration and protection capabilities with non-Microsoft devices cumbersome.

Detection

A diverse, unified portfolio harnesses the power of TrendAI Vision One™ to provide multi-layered threat detection across a Security Operations platform. Leveraging the most substantial vulnerability research in the industry, TrendAI™ Zero Day Initiative™ (ZDI), enables higher detection of unknown threats.

Microsoft's security solutions offer advanced threat detection utilizing behavioral analysis and machine learning. They provide comprehensive coverage against a variety of threats, including malware, viruses, ransomware, and phishing attacks. But with a high level of false positives, especially for non-Microsoft devices, threat detection levels are often questioned.

Remediation

Get clear remediation steps with automated workbenches and AI. From threat detection and investigation analysis to containment and remediation and post-incident analysis, users can update security policies and procedures easily.

Microsoft’s security solutions are known for their robust capabilities, but to achieve optimal levels of threat detection, they often necessitate extensive configuration. To fully leverage the potential of Microsoft’s security tools, organizations may need to invest significant time and resources into fine-tuning settings and defining parameters that align with their security needs.

Supportability

Full support for a wide range of operating systems and legacy environments – Windows, Linux, on-premises to hybrid, SaaS, and multi-cloud.

Compatible with the latest versions of Windows. Legacy Windows environments have limited support and require additional costs. Microsoft offers alternative ways to manage, but those methods may run the risk of misconfiguration.

Deployment

Deployment scripts, workload security APIs, and virtual machine templates at your disposal for an easy transition into any environment. Automated deployment with comprehensive network visibility.

Microsoft security solutions can be deployed using various methods including local scripts, Group Policy, Configuration Manager, or third-party tools. Despite its broad flexibility, initial setup and configuration can be complex, particularly for non-Microsoft devices and optimizing the deployment for specific organizational needs might require additional effort.
