The tool is very helpful in improving Phishing detection capabilities as it streamlines the process of analyzing user reports a lot. Besides it has a built-in mechanism of rating reporters(end-users) based on their historical performance. Downside - tool requires continuous resource investment to deliver best result.

Tool is not helping too much in improving user-education, because automated response process is not immediate and is prone to errors.

In my experience as an administrator. Cofense generates reports of the types of e-mails which are scanned, reported, and blocked, and from there, I can present to the board the work which is automated, which gives our analysts the to focus on other issues. It is very well suited to a large business as it enforces automation and collaboration between different IT sectors in my organization. The main reason is it enforces e-mail security. There is no scenario that I can think of where Cofense Triage is less appropriate.

Cofense Triage is well suited for a large enterprise environment where manually reviewing and responding to reported phishing emails would not be feasible. Cofense Triage may not be suitable for smaller organizations, as the cost-to-benefit ratio wouldn't make it a worthwhile investment.

Triage is an excellent solution for analyzing, categorizing and responding to reported emails. It has a simple interface which is easy to get used to and the features can be used to semi-automate many actions, speeding up the analysis massively. This is a great platform for analyzing small to medium amount of emails (10-20 per analyst per day), however it takes quite a lot of setup of automation to make it useful for larger scale companies.

Cofense triage can be used for all businesses as it is easily adaptable to your needs. It is an amazing tool to increase your cyber security defences within the business. So far this month my company have been able to identify 11 malicious emails which otherwise could have gone undetected.

For high traffic email recipients, like SME companies, Cofence Triage is best suited as it saves time on manual work to review each and every email. Also, the YARA allows us to avoid the pain of handling too many false reports. Another area that we benefit from is grouping similar emails together.

The best-suited scenario is we get to know the categories of emails like malicious, non-malicious, spam, malware, fraud, stealing, and data breach we come to know all this in a single place which is Cofense Triage only. We use this every day in our organization and their customer support services are awesome they have the resolution as well the quality of handling stuff

Cofense Triage is well suited for large companies which are receiving large amounts of emails. It makes it easy for users to report suspicious emails and makes it easy for security staff to review, analyze and investigate these emails to avoid having them delivered in the future in case any other security tool fails to detect them.

Providing a first line of defense across a networked local and remote environment against phishing attempts via mail is almost a requirement these days and Cofense Triage takes that to a new level.

This is a good simulator for reporting emails, we can categorize the emails based on categories, from Cofense Triage we can acknowledge users who [have] reported emails. I would recommend to all to own this product.

Cofense Triage allows users to easily to review emails and quickly find malicious or spam. The limitation of the URL flagging has its limits. Many actors often use user specific URLs. For unique attachments the need for use of external tools become problematic especially for new inexperienced analysts.

Cofense Triage is highly suited in an organization where the email gateway has missed a potential phishing mail and the SOC needs to do further analysis to figure out whether it was malicious or not. This really helps to avoid the risk of a compromise and removal of breached emails from the organization.

Cofense does a fine job of classifying emails and responding to users. Set up is straightforward, and Triage is easy to use. It does not have the best quarantine features and does not offer as many proactive ways to defend against future attacks as other solutions. Other solutions are cheaper, have better integrations into the email gateway, and offer more features, such as training modules for users that regularly submit safe emails.

Cofense Triage is a suitable tool for organizations to allow users a method to report suspicious emails. There's an Outlook add-on a user can click to simply report an email and get a response from an expert. Cofense also has other tools like Cofense Intelligence and Cofense Phishme for phish simulation exercises seamlessly integrating with Cofense Triage. However, I believe bundling Vision (a feature to search MS Exchange mailboxes for IOCs) with Cofense Triage would add more value to customers. Vision comes as an add-on subscription.

For big organizations where there are a lot of employees with email addresses. The autoresponse lets us filter out legitimate emails quickly without much work on our end, but also gives us an opportunity to analyze suspicious or malicious emails. Would not recommend an organization with not many employees with email addresses as it wouldn't be needed.
