Unbox from FireEye (Now Trellix) for Cloud Native Zero Trust Security
Innovate faster when you move away from FireEye/Trellix appliances for a security partner that confidently meets your growth
Why it’s time to reevaluate FireEye/Trellix
Scalability issues
Security shouldn’t hold you back from scaling and innovating, but when it isn’t optimized for a cloud-first world, you have to backhaul traffic to appliances in data centers for inspection. Plus, without smart capabilities, frequent re-scanning of files already marked benign or malicious causes latency and a poor user experience.
Security blind spots
Most traffic is now encrypted, and today’s threats take advantage of that to avoid detection. FireEye/Trellix lacks native TLS/SSL decryption and relies on post-delivery analysis, leaving your team reacting to threats, vulnerable to patient-zero infections, and reliant on yet more tools and appliances for visibility and protection.
Administrative hurdles
Filling in gaps with bolted-on security tools only provides temporary relief. More tools complicate the outdated FireEye/Trellix network architecture and create policy management headaches. Device sprawl diverts your team’s focus from critical network operations to firefighting connectivity issues and patching.

Here’s why it makes sense to replace your FireEye/Trellix appliances with a cloud native platform

Zscaler
Form factor
FireEye/Trellix
Appliance-based
Inherently limited in capacity, it can’t scale unless you add more appliances or perform substantial upgrades for more throughput.
Zscaler
Cloud native
A cloud native proxy architecture with infinite scale completely eliminates the need for appliances.
SSL inspection
FireEye/Trellix
Falls flat
FireEye appliances can’t inspect SSL traffic natively, and with at least 84% of global web traffic encrypted, you’re forced to buy appliances from other vendors.
Zscaler
Nothing is hidden
Zscaler Cloud Sandbox uses a cloud native proxy architecture that inspects all SSL traffic inline without degrading performance or compromising security.
Inline threat prevention
FireEye/Trellix
Can't keep up
FireEye focuses on analyzing files after users receive them, requiring manual intervention to prevent patient-zero infections. Plus, on-premises appliances treat all files as new, creating network and performance bottlenecks.
Zscaler
Better protection
Harness the power of the cloud to drastically reduces your attack surface and automate detection, prevention, and quarantine for unknown attacks. Your security is always up to date with more than 150 million daily updates sourced from 210 billion transactions worldwide.
Malware analysis
FireEye/Trellix
Passthrough architecture
Adversaries deliver payloads through encrypted channels, and traditional appliances are blind to this traffic. Buying more appliances adds to administrative and network performance headaches.
Zscaler
AI/ML-based quarantine
Inline detection with AI/ML-based analysis quarantines zero-day attacks—even if they’re hidden in SSL traffic—to stop them from reaching their targets.
Ransomware
FireEye/Trellix
Too many blind spots
Adversaries deliver payloads through encrypted channels, and traditional appliances are blind to this traffic. Buying more appliances adds to administrative and network performance headaches.
Zscaler
Comprehensive prevention
Full SSL inspection at scale with a cloud native zero trust architecture exposes, isolates, and stops ransomware in its tracks regardless of user, location, or network.
Remote workforce
FireEye/Trellix
Unable to scale
Dealing with hardware and software updates is time-consuming, and you still need additional devices for SSL decryption and enforcement.
Zscaler
Infinite scale
With the network out of the equation, you can focus on creating context-based business policies that are enforced consistently without any hardware constraints.
