What is Skyhigh Security Secure Edge?

(Formerly McAfee Unified Cloud Edge) We believe that no one person, product, or organization can fight cybercrime alone. It’s why we rebuilt McAfee around the idea of working together. People working together. Products working together.

What differentiates Skyhigh Security Secure Edge from other similar products?

The endpoint agents' actions to interpret the security policies are entirely under the control of the system's central dashboard. Furthermore, you must prepare before starting the data discovery search. These guidelines can be set up to comply with data security standards. Additionally, it's really simple to use and manage.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

Associated fields can be found using the categorization service. Even though they might not individually constitute PII, their release as a group will constitute a breach. To find these high-priority field combinations, the Discover service uses fingerprinting. The Remediation stage follows Fingerprinting, which creates a clear landscape to which the security policies should be implemented.

What do you dislike most about this product?

Recent iterations of DLP have been plagued by a variety of small problems due to a dearth of thorough quality assessment. Because of underlying problems, the product patches must be applied more frequently than before. CPU usage can occasionally be unusual.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

The corrective actions offered by McAfee DLP Prevent include encryption, redirection, blocking, and quarantining. Security rules can also assign various actions to various user types and sensitivity levels. Additionally, it can assist you in adjusting your security policies, demonstrating compliance with data security standards, or evaluating the success of SLA goals.

Strong tool for data security

What differentiates Skyhigh Security Secure Edge from other similar products?

A DLP program called McAfee DLP Endpoint uses virtual processes and controls to guard against the unplanned loss of financial or intellectual property information. The Inventory phase has search capabilities for databases, cloud services, and files. Using OCR, it can also read through photographs, screenshots, and forms as well as images of documents.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

The discovery scan locates all data, classifies those occurrences, and determines whether data is critical and must be protected. The discoverer will then assign a level of protection based on the sensitivity of each piece of data and grade it accordingly. Isn't knowing that so satisfying? Additionally, it runs a continuous cycle of automated search and categorization.

What do you dislike most about this product?

Beginners may find it a little challenging to configure, and because the solution is expensive, smaller firms may not be able to use it. Due to its high cost, even the majority of businesses choose to choose an alternative product with lower costs.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

The sensitive data from the Discover module is subject to the security policies and access controls that you configure in the dashboard. This system keeps track of all applications used for data transportation launched from endpoints, such as email and messaging services. The module also includes monitoring capabilities for cloud server-based apps that access the data.

Enforceable DLP solution.

Likeliness to Recommend

10 /10

What differentiates Skyhigh Security Secure Edge from other similar products?

With effective reporting techniques, McAfee DLP helps protect intellectual property and business-critical data on the networks and terminals. Based on previously established rules, it is possible to filter out information being conveyed by email. It also helps capture important PCI data, including account numbers, social security numbers, and credit card information.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

McAfee DLP is quite independent and performs its functions as promised. Update alerts are available, which is a major benefit for improving the stability of the product. The DLP app is easier to update or update than rival products because everything is automated. It is not heavy for users. Overall, McAfee has a fantastic UI that is very informative and a good management system for tracking where equipment is moving.

What do you dislike most about this product?

SMB protocol is used by McAfee DLP Endpoint to gather data from the client system. It is difficult to gather data from the local computer in an on premise solution when SMB protocol is prohibited across Security Gateway due to adherence to proper Cyber Security practices. CPU usage can occasionally be unusual.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

With its strong limitation options for different organizational personnel, Mcafee DLP is highly powerful. With this technology, I sense like I have total control over the organization. And it's fantastic. I've profited from highly robust security features that let me manage content access from numerous sources and external or internal devices. Overall, it substantially discourages security breaches.
