Cofense
The tool is very helpful in improving Phishing detection capabilities as it streamlines the process of analyzing user reports a lot. Besides it has a built-in mechanism of rating reporters(end-users) based on their historical performance. Downside - tool requires continuous resource investment to deliver best result. Tool is not helping too much in improving user-education, because automated response process is not immediate and is prone to errors

We are able to check if any phishing link was visited by the user or not. To check for the whether any file is executed on the machine or not. To check on which port connections are being made by the machine. To create custom watchlist for alert to be investigated by an analyst. To check every process executed in the machine for a specified range.

Cons
Cofense
  • There are too many interdependent pieces which you have to acquire separately.
  • I think Cofense has a lot of capabilities and usefulness, but I think it's too a la carte.
  • We own Cofense and PhishMe currently and there are some gaping holes that require additional licensing to close.

The other product had a lot of fails on the auto-processing and did not integrate well with our current environment. One issue had to do with the way it sends the submissions to its processing engine—our email gateway configuration would have blocked this traffic. I also did not like the user interface.

CB Response allows for a better view of what happened on the endpoint and provides more functionality out of the box then the FireEye Endpoint Security Product. CB Response allows you to basically have a remote connection into the CLI of an endpoint. This allows you to view the file system, run programs/scripts on the host, etc. FireEye Endpoint Security does not have this functionality.

Return on Investment
Cofense
  • Due to the integration potential, large amounts of time are saved on a daily basis.
  • Incident response time has dropped due to the increased information available by having access to phishing emails directly.
  • Staff are able to effectively learn how multiple tools in our environment are used by mastering Triage. This has decreased training time greatly and increased the effectiveness of each associate.
