Fits the sweet spot for organizations looking for a low maintenace IWAF **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Wholesale | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** October 25, 2022 **What do you like best about ThreatX?** * Set and forget capability, for the most part. I don't have a large team and can't spend time babysitting a product. * Rules can be customized, for the most part. * Can be deployed within a container or hosted for you. * Been using it for six months, and no security events have been encountered. * Customer service responded to tickets/emails extremely fast. * While probably not forever, bad actors generally have not heard of ThreatX and thus have no knowledge of how to get around it. **What do you dislike about ThreatX?** * Some rules that need customization require customer support intervention. Afterward, you can't manage or sometimes even see what they've changed. There is a way to see them via SSH. * Dashboard evolution is still in progress. * Email notification setups aren't very granular in capabilities. * No visible web logs, at least on the web management tool. I believe limited web logs are downloadable via SSH, but that's too complicated to accomplish regularly without good reason. * Product is still young, and while it has excellent performance, some of the more granular capabilities of other WAF's aren't yet available in ThreatX. **What problems is ThreatX solving and how is that benefiting you?** ThreatX is addressing our need for an Intelligent Web Application Firewall. We did not want to purchase a physical device and wanted an affordable cloud solution. ### 2. ThreatX provides advances protection and insight into APIs. **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Brad B. | Head of Product Security, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** October 25, 2022 **What do you like best about ThreatX?** The 24/7 SOC support and the risk based blocking. Also, the insites from the portal provide good detail for reviewing malicious versus legitimate use. **What do you dislike about ThreatX?** The ThreatX portal could use some enhancements. For example, it would be ideal to white list IPs by site and not globally. This cannot be done in the portal but the SOC can do it if asked. **What problems is ThreatX solving and how is that benefiting you?** ThreatX solves several problems including ones we didn't know we had previously. The risked based blocking was the most important feature. However, the insights provided by ThreatX has revealed how legitimate users are abusing our APIs. ### 3. ThreatX is advanced cyber threat protection to compliment your existing security features **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Thomas M. | Senior Systems Engineer I, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** October 25, 2022 **What do you like best about ThreatX?** Other solutions rely on threat signatures where ThreatX continues to learn and is effective at stopping malicious traffic as well as bots. **What do you dislike about ThreatX?** Switching between pages you can lose your settings, such as which site you are working on, however, the portal is constantly evolving and ThreatX listens to your feedback. **What problems is ThreatX solving and how is that benefiting you?** ThreatX is helping us to block traffic where the same attacker can be identified from a signature in the traffic, but they are switching through thousands of IP addresses and changing things up. Using a signature, ThreatX allows us to create rules to stop this traffic. ### 4. Very good and fast service **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Luca A. | Security Engineer, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** October 25, 2022 **What do you like best about ThreatX?** Malicious Threats identified and blocked.
