The Barracuda Forensics and Incident Response is best suited as an addition to the Barracuda Sentinel. After Barracuda Sentinel discovers a phishing email or account takeover, the Barracuda Forensics and Incident Response allows you to quickly dive into the details of the email(s) to determine if the email is legitimate or not. It does a very good job finding and deleting any and all emails related to the attack.

Cons
Barracuda Networks, Inc.
  • If you own the total security suite, the use of the app becomes less important
  • It would be nice to post a mail yourself in order to delete this mail from other mailboxes. If possible, it is not clear how to do this.

  • Sometimes Rapid7 InsightIDR will be too locked down and without knowing will block applications and processes needed for day to day operation.
  • System scans with Rapid7 InsightIDR can be very bandwidth-heavy on the network and system resources.
  • From a recent incident, we have seen more and more false positives from Rapid7 InsightIDR on areas that we know are secure.

The dashboard is intuitive and easy to use. One can create a remediation in a minute and have it deployed to remove a threatening email(s) in minutes, instead of hours, across your Exchange network.

The biggest advantage it has the lightweight agent and smooth and less traffic chaos in network during log collection. Cloud Security always require extra efforts but InsightIDR reduce that burden as it has highly anticipated agents to which knows what they need to do when they captured malicious traffic.log collection and threat intelligence is major part in and xdr and here it stand out along others in the market, I started my career as qualys administration but I like InsightIDR much now.
