Superb, multi-faceted, multi-featured, multi-purpose Detection and Response tool
Use Cases and Deployment Scope
We use it mainly as our incident detection and response application of
choice, but it has helped us out enormously with its feature rich
capabilities in numerous other areas. InsightIDR provides us with a
single pane of glass view that allows us to have maximum visibility of
our endpoints, while being aware of all assets, even newly created
ones. It also allows us the ability to view and act on alerts in real
time by conducting deep root cause analysis with additional functions.
Our installation is cloud based so we have integration with other
applications. Additionally, Reports can be formulated with ease and convenience and on a bespoke basis.
