Syxsense delivers security with managed services, 24-hour coverage, and compliance regulation.
It includes vulnerability scanning, patch management, and endpoint security—enabling
organizations to align their core IT management processes with their cybersecurity strategies.
Syxsense has two pricing plans available, Syxsense Manage and Syxsense Secure.
Syxsense Manage includes many of the main features including OS patching, maintenance
windows, remote control, and software distribution.
And Syxsense Secure adds a vulnerability scanner, threat alerting and quarantine, device timelines,
IoT (or Internet of Things) support, and more.
Syxsense costs start between $600 and $1000 per year for 10 devices, depending on which
plan you go with.
For specific quotes, you’ll have to reach out through their website.
However, if you’re curious and want to try before you buy, there is a free trial available
for download with either plan on Mac, Windows, and Linux.
Syxsense is a lightweight agent that focuses on continuous management and monitoring for
all users’ endpoints.
Abnormal activity of malicious processes is constantly monitored.
In the event malicious or abnormal activity is detected, Syxsense proactively quarantines
devices to prevent further infection, and an open incident is created with details on
where, what, and who was impacted.
All of this information is then automatically sent over to key stakeholders.
From there, users can log in to Syxsense’s secure cloud console from any modern web browser
to dig in further to the threat and handle it as needed.
Although, some users have complaints that the web console can have issues occasionally,
specifically citing problems when refreshing the page.
Syxsense Cortex is the specific tool that creates intelligent endpoints, which monitors
potential threats and changes to individual endpoints in users’ data environments.
Cortex receptors gather data from recognized threats or unexpected changes in endpoints
in real time.
Then, Syxsense Cortex Processor takes that data from the receptors and initiates complex
workflows that come ready out of the box or that can be customized with a drag-and-drop
workflow automation interface.
These multi-step actions, which Syxsense calls Cortex Jobs, are then put into motion to get
devices back to their desired states, and the process is finished with providing proof
that the threats have been eliminated.
Syxsense has tools to handle patch management from any location, utilizing Microsoft Azure.
This solution supports desktops, laptops, and servers from a single console and can
run a variety of detailed reports in order to meet HIPAA, SOX, and PCI compliance.
Some of the reports available out of the box and ready for automatic scheduling are security
risk assessments, most vulnerable devices, and task summaries.
Maintenance windows give users a set start and stop time for when devices can be patched,
which ensures productivity of users’ workforce is not affected.
Users can also set recurring events to automatically push all patches to all company devices, whether
they’re Microsoft’s system updates, Linux patches, or third-party updates.
And third-party patches can include support for Adobe, Java, Chrome, and more.
It’s a good idea to get multiple quotes before choosing a security solution.
