    It is well suited for a company that utilizes a Security Awareness Training program. The old way is someone would report an email it got sent to a specific email address and you had to manually go through everything. If something was malicious you had to use Powershell/Graph to rip the message out or eDiscovery. The only place I could see this not be well suited for is a smaller environment. There is a minimum of 100 I believe, but even with 50 end-users I would still pay for it.

    Where Rapid7 InsightConnect excels is in environments needing the whole suite of virus protection and monitoring. In our environment we use it to make sure we have visibility over all endpoints, servers, hosts, and clusters to make sure that there are no vulnerabilities being left unattended too. It is also best in large environments. Since there are many endpoints, the automation from Rapid7 helps manage them all in an efficient manner.

    Cons
    KnowBe4
    • The PhishRIP query can be improved to find other emails apart from the reported one only.
    • They should provide an option to delete the quarantined emails that are quarantined by the PhishRIP feature.
    • The PhishML can be improved to produce more accurate results.
    • More options to integrate PhishER with 3rd party tools.

    • It would be great if Rapid7 InsightConnect could be configured based on pre determined specifications when installing the agent.
    • We've noticed that at times, there are certain network parameters needed in order for Rapid7 to collect and report data efficiently.
    • Sometimes there are issues with the discovery scan in Rapid7 making it hard to configure in the beginning.

    When we first discovered that KnowBe4 released something like this, we saw a demo of it and were floored at what it could do and how it could help us from a security standpoint. Gone are the days of us in IT sending out a mass email saying please don't click on anything in the email from sender "X", and it allows us to quietly and easily ensure that people don't take any action on malicious emails.

    Usability

    It has been super easy for users to work with training and quizzes. Admin is a little difficult because you have to build the specific campaign type you want. But you can even create your own training and upload it to your LMS. This is great!!

    When I have a question, their were fast to respond. The downside is a that at least once I had to work through the issue with the person assigned to help me because they didn't know the answer. That said they did try and were patient. However they should have known the answer on integration.

    We evaluated the Titan options because we have already used their DNS filtering product. However, KnowBe4 came in with a better price per user and a significantly stronger product lineup, particularly with its security awareness training component.

    Palo Alto was slightly cheaper, but more complex and would need the training to be effective. Splunk was comparative from a price standpoint, but the automation features of Rapid7 InsightConnect outweighed those of Splunk SOAR. Honestly, all of these are great choices, but for our environment, it made more sense to go with Rapid7.

    Return on Investment
    KnowBe4
    • There has been a 700% increase in emails being reported now. Previously, staff were only reporting 4 emails a month. It is easier for us to promote the phish alert button, receive automated remediation and rapidly respond.
    • We had no reports on the amount of phishing emails were coming through Mimecast but now we have reports for the board of trustees.
    • Every Wednesday we talk about cyber security to all staff, PhishER allows us to point out the trend and what to look out for which raises awareness. Never before were we able to talk about cyber security like this.

    • The automation and integration we set up in the dev cycle helped us provide evidence in audits
    • The automation and integration we set up in the dev cycle helped us fix vulns in our software prior to implementation thus increasing our security
    • Automations save massive time and headache's between infosec and devs
