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.

If you're already a Microsoft shop, it is the option. That's the only one. If you're not a Microsoft shop or not very deep into it, like E5 licenses, I'd say you get much less out of it than you might from some other products.

  • The visual presentation of data is terrific, so including what we had prior to Microsoft Sentinel, it presents data in a much more usable way, so that's been quite refreshing. It's not quite as complex to understand what you're looking at.

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.

  • It's hard to pinpoint anything that's wrong with it. It's the only thing is the cost. Everyone wants stuff cheaper, right? Because the product itself is hard to find flaws in, it does exactly what it says it does. I'd love to use it more, but the cost is too expensive, so you have to use it in specific use cases to drive down the cost. If you could open the floodgates, then you would basically use it more.

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.

These are all the Microsoft products. We have used Splunk. And again, I would say Microsoft Sentinel stacks up because it's a native tool that is more like an ecosystem. It's not a standalone tool. It's like if you're in the Microsoft stack, Microsoft Sentinel will stack up best to use these things. And of course, Microsoft Sentinel works across clouds as well. So I would recommend Microsoft Sentinel over Splunk or other options.

Return on Investment

  • Many Phishing attacks are identified and prevented in an instant.
  • Classification of activity helps analysts search and find which emails pose a larger threat.
  • User interface and learning is simple and easy to use.

  • As any cybersecurity product, this has to be more with risk to avoid loss in case of a ransomware that more than relate to a productivity increase. Maybe the impact could be that instead of having people that are checking 24/7 the dashboard, you could implement Sentinel and have less people checking that or people with less expertise. So the saving will be a minor but will be a saving in the cost of your team.
