Overall Satisfaction with Rapid7 InsightIDR
We have an issue with end users lacking knowledge of IT security, so we purchased Rapid7 InsightIDR to deploy an agent on their workstations for monitoring, as well as internal pen testing. If an employee fails a security check, then they have to take the security education course over again. Over time this has helped.
Pros
- Collect logs from workstations and send them back for analysis
- Internal pen testing
- Monitor authentications to internal resources
Cons
- Agent can be resource intensive at times
- Server has to be rebooted more often than it should
- Logging needs a better archiving ability
- The agent running on the end users pc's
- Logging abilities
- Ease of analysis
- Less chance of a data breach due to end users clicking
- Logs to help with compliance
- Agent tends to consume more resources than it should
- Forescout Platform (CounterACT)
Both products would do what we needed them to, but Rapid7 InsightIDR made more sense from a cost perspective. We did a proof of concept of both products, and they were pretty evenly matched in their own ways. Forescout had a better interface, but in the end the interface of Rapid7 was fine.
