We use a single pain of glass with dashboards that can be easily drilled down into to get further information. It has laso helped us eo create bespoke reports for senios Managmeent, while at the same time supports other teams like Network Mnagement and Operations.

Rapid7
  • Sometimes Rapid7 InsightIDR will be too locked down and without knowing will block applications and processes needed for day to day operation.
  • System scans with Rapid7 InsightIDR can be very bandwidth-heavy on the network and system resources.
  • From a recent incident, we have seen more and more false positives from Rapid7 InsightIDR on areas that we know are secure.

The biggest advantage it has the lightweight agent and smooth and less traffic chaos in network during log collection. Cloud Security always require extra efforts but InsightIDR reduce that burden as it has highly anticipated agents to which knows what they need to do when they captured malicious traffic.log collection and threat intelligence is major part in and xdr and here it stand out along others in the market, I started my career as qualys administration but I like InsightIDR much now.

I find Helix to be super-efficient and able to cut through the noise. Previous installations of LogRhythm and Splunk resulting in an overwhelming amount of noise (out of the gate), and we had to constantly tune out false positives. Helix is different. Out of the gate, Helix provided higher fidelity hits, and our teams don't spend half their day turning out the noise.
