[QUOTE="cruelsister, post: 264912, member: 7463"] It also didn’t do very well in the Managed form as administered by IT professionals either at Target or Home Depot. Malware was swimming around their respective servers and happily transmitting data to the Russian C&C for about 3 weeks (19 days, actually) in the case of Target, and for over 5 months at Home Depot. Although the Firewall is very good, it has excesive alerts- not an issue for a small office, but on an Enterprise basis the logs can be so externsive that they are blown off (a product that alerts to everything alerts to nothing). Finally the Proactive module is just so-so. Malware can be coded, true Zero-day, that won't be detected via definitions by SEP; here's where a good Proactive module should come into play, which SEP does not have (a good one, anyway). In a nutshell, this is what happened at Target and HD. Not exactly a ringing endorsement of SEP. [/QUOTE]
