    If emails are used for confidential communication, Hoxhunt is a HUGE benefit. I have caught myself feeling lax over emailing and clicking links. Hoxhunt makes you really evaluate safety and legitimacy of the emails that are received. We even have laughs about it at staff meetings where staff admit to getting "hoxhunted" and clicking a fake link.

    If you have multiple endpoints in your environment, if you're looking to understand what your environment looks like, if you're trying to identify the health of your environment, or identify any risks or vulnerabilities in your environment pertaining to your endpoints and devices.

    Pros
    Hoxhunt
    • Training Packages - They cover a wide range of topics that spam emails, social media and physical security such as USB sticks
    • Achievements as incentives - The gaming style of collecting achievements and stars for reporting emails or completing training incentivizes people to engage in a consistent and enthusiastic way.
    • Training Emails - They are able to replicate phishing emails in a realistic way, so it isn't easy to spot straight away meaning we now look at every email with a critical eye which makes us safer.

    • The big thing for us is on endpoint, it kind of integrates with everything else that we already have because we use Microsoft completely. And so that helps us with being able to integrate, and send things over to Azure Sentinel as we need to as well.

    Cons
    Hoxhunt
    • I wish you could report emails without having to open them.
    • It's hard to have access to your dashboard except when you're reporting an email.
    • Would be nice if you kept us informed of other trends in cybercrime in addition email scams.
    • I'd like to learn more about deep fakes and if there's a way to protect oneself... Is there a way to detect those?

    • I'd say building out summaries and log reviews for analysts reviewing incidents. So, pivoting from the alerts themselves to actually getting the detail underneath. Trying to understand what caused an alert, where they went from there, et cetera, et cetera. And then trying to get into deeper log review to take that investigation further can be a pain point.

    Cost add-ons for Security features is nickel and diming the process to keep pace with cybercrime. Limited Education budgets require us to be more pro-active in finding cost-effective measures to protect our devices, staff and students. Defender is a strong, well-featured product that is pricing itself out of the education market

    Usability
    Hoxhunt
    it is very easy to use. it is clear and provides information as to why the type of email is one to look out for. It automatically takes you to the required information when you have spotted that it is a Hoxhunt email.

    Because it's hard to find things sometimes. I can find things now because I know where they are. But you have to work with it a little while to figure out how. I'd basically say it was a security tool designed by developers. So you have to get that mindset to find things. So a new hire, a new person in the SOC would have a difficult time. I know that's sitting in here, or that screen is in here somewhere. So it's gotten better.

    Microsoft Defender for Endpoint chugs along just fine no matter what we throw at it and what systems it's running on. It doesn't take up a lot of resources either, so that's welcomed.

    The first time I tried to onboard my macOS endpoints to MDE I struggled for quite a bit. I had to reach out to Microsoft's MDE support team. The tech was very helpful in walking me through the steps during a screen share session

    Deployment was handled by our team here and everything went pretty smoothly. We did have a few hiccups in our test group, but that only took a bit to get ironed out.

    Symantec was something I used in my previous company, it had some issues once in a while where I had to re-generate the code for my new ID. I know its for over all protection, but if I didn't have my phone that day, I'd be unable to log in. Hoxhunt helps that way as there is a SSO authentication and needs the fingerprint, I guess it works different for different companies based on their regulations and privacy protection. Haven't really used any other tool like this

    Particularly, we're evaluating Symantec Endpoint Protection, the commercial version. We've looked at eSet, a couple of the others, and it's much too heavy or difficult to manage, things like that. Ease of use, ease of integration. It's already there. It's super easy to update it with the regular OS updates and everything. So we can manage it whether we're using SCCM or Intune or Dato, it's very easy to deploy updates and manage things.

    Return on Investment
    Hoxhunt
    • Mitigating potential threats allows for a continuous workflow
    • Reducing the incidence of information leakage allows the company to maintain its competitiveness based on its capacity for innovation.
    • It allows our IT security department to detect those users who need better cyber security training.
    • The efforts of our IT engineers are now focused on finding improvements, and not on solving problems derived from the computer infection.

    • I think the positive impact overall is that we do a lot of sitting in front of assessors- federal assessors, government assessors. And it really comes down to when the assessor has to think about another product that you're bringing in that's not Microsoft, it creates a lot of confusion, more paperwork, more explanation. But the positive impact is that they know it, everybody kind of knows Microsoft. And so when you tell them you have this endpoint for Microsoft Defender for Endpoint, they're like, okay. The questions go away, and it makes the overhead a lot less during an assessment.
