Cofense
It is well suited in environments where there is a high mail traffic to handle. [Cofense] Vision basically journals the exchange server and keeps a copy of the mail received in the environment. Really beneficial to revoke and quarantine the mail reported by one user, but footprint is there in other mailboxes as well. Less appropriate in the cases where there is no proper segregation of duties within the organization. As it is possible to see contents of the mail. Only authorized personnel should be able to use it.

Microsoft Defender for Office 365 is found to be well suited for our size company, and easily for smaller or larger companies as well. It does have a few places where improvements can be made, but at least it also asks you to provide feedback to Microsoft, which I have done with certain suggestions or complaints. However, overall it is a very thorough and useful tool when it comes to securing and defending yourself against trending threats.

  • It has been seamlessly working for us. We have not faced any issue as an end user. I've not faced many issues around accessing my apps, securely accessing and I've also seen certain links being blocked if I do not have correct access based on the security level that is defined for each user.

Cons
Cofense
  • Its cost can be somewhat high when it comes to a small business, so it is perfectly suited to medium or large companies.
  • It can throw problems when it comes to migrating said tool in the different versions of an email.
  • Its configuration is simple, but it is important to fully understand its operation to give adequate responses to possible threats.
  • It would be ideal if it could be integrated with your platform.

  • I think it needs to be tuned correctly. For example, afterwards I tried to go in and print once after the implementation was done, I went in and tried to print a file or export a document. Just not possible, which just means it's great, works really well, but it also means that you have to tune your data categorization very carefully.

Apple of Discord is the pricing as we were looking for an email security tool in reasonable pricing and Barracuda was undoubtedly efficient in action and was compatible with our business but it was highly expensive and then we made up our mind for another tool and Cofense Vision was offering almost the same as Barracuda but cheaper.

Sentinel One. Well, we have two different products at the same time. Just see which one is the best fit for our business. So nowadays we're using both at the same time.

  • The positive aspect is the security of the employees, security of the data. There is no breach I can say. So it is a good impact. I mean there is not any bad or negative impact.
