IBM X-Force Exchange vs. IntSights Cyber Intelligence, from Rapid7

IBM X-Force is well suited for organizations with medium to large SOC's and run IBM Qradar as their SIEM.

It has been a brilliant tool and we have harnessed it for so many applications - Threat intelligence, Risk Analysis, Automation, Endpoint protection, Vulnerability Management, Application Security, Protecting all our Cloud Applications. We love the fact that we only have to see those threats that are meaningful to us.
We don't need clutter and endless dashboards with information that just gets in the way and makes things complicated. By having this full, crisp, easily discernible visibility, our decision-making is enhanced and we can see clearly what's happening in real time. We also love the fact that if a dashboard isn't proving to be productive, then we can go ahead and scrap it, and create another one. The tailor made/bespoke aspect of the Application is the thing that really sets it
apart. By having all our dashboards aligned, our teams are all working from the same page and it means we are safe in the knowledge that our systems and applications are being monitored in the most effective and efficient ways.
There haven't been any real scenarios where it has been ineffective. - perhaps just In-depth Risk Vulnerability Analytics
are a bit lacking. However, I'm probably just picking hairs there.

• Ready made security research on threats.
• Security Intel
• Integrate threat intel feeds with SIEMs.

• Pruning of IOC to reduce false positives.
• Add more flexibility to integration on SIEMs to allow users to compare UserAgents, Compromised users/domains like HIBP.

IBM X-force is community-based and crowd strike is not. Community-based will always be best-effort quality.

IntSights Cyber Intelligence, from Rapid7 was by far the clear winner, in terms of seamless integration with our exisitng systems, deployment, cleaner User Interface, ease of operation, better for monitoring Indicators of compromise and dark web information, having more features etc.

Incentivized

• Threat Intel - Low Confidence IOC - Overhead.
• Lack of integration with IBM Qradar+Vulnerability via X-Force.
