    Huntress is great for a managed service provider to provide a better cybersecurity stack to their endpoints/customers. Some smaller clients cannot afford high-priced SOC services but require SOC-level protection. Along with a couple of other layers of security, Huntress provides peace of mind for the MSP that if a threat were to arise, they would be notified with specific instructions for dealing with that threat.

    Great for network DLP, web, and endpoint monitoring. DSPM data discovery works well for key structured and unstructured data sources. An area for improvement is simplifying the interface into a single pane for reviewing incidents and making it part of the tooling, rather than a separate module with a fee (incident receiver).

    Pros
    Huntress Labs Incorporated
    • Using the latest industry knowledge of threats that have been ongoing, but not previously known and projecting it back in time against their installed endpoints to identify machines that are vulnerable or breached and when it these events occurred
    • Very quiet. If they alert, it is a thing.
    • Very good at remediation.
    • They communicate extremely well when it matters.
    • While there are the most extensive products more often than not they are the first to alert us to a threat.

    • If the policy is set correctly, it identifies DLP (Data Loss Prevention).
    • Scanning zip files to find executables works really well.

    Cons
    Huntress Labs Incorporated
    • Now that they have EDR capability, they need to fully participate in MITRE testing for direct comparison against other EDR products.
    • Now that they are going into Managed Antivirus and EDR with isolation capabilities they need to update their SLA comparative to other vendors
    • Support for non-Windows OSes for consistency in a network
    • It would be nice to seed canary files in custom shares on servers.

    • The DLP dictionary functions need to be expanded upon, such as matching all regex patterns with any phrases and vice versa. The only way to do this today is to create two dictionaries and then use an engine to combine them; however, this approach loses the ability to utilize proximity.
    • Regex does not support lookaheads.

    Usability
    Huntress Labs Incorporated
    We dropped SentinelOne in favor of Huntress because the UI was much more simplistic for the tier 1 techs to maintain. It beats the old web design model of three clicks to where you want to go. It is very intuitive. No one needs training to figure out how to navigate its console.

    Firstly from a business model, [VMware] Carbon Black [Cloud Managed Detection] was not outfitted for the MSP where Huntress is very MSP-friendly from an affordably easy point to entry to value for money licensing. Carbon Black TS is not bad in anyway, well, that we found, but Huntress is a new layer of security that fits between the OS and AV layers to provide additional information, monitoring, and detection. With Huntress backing the MSP, [it] sure does help as well.

    Thought about deploying zero trust cloud within our environment, but we are still in the early stages of our digital transformation projects. Still evaluating current options, but we knew Zscaler Data Security took a strict approach to data, so that's what we wanted to evaluate.
