Well suited to the following: 1. Data-Driven Analytics. I cannot stress that enough. It has been transformational in the way we are able to accomplish tasks and analyze large amounts of information. 2. Connect-The-Dots methodology. I have found it incredibly adept in allowing new information to be used in tandem with already-known info. 3. This is the icing on the cake and what I had originally set out to accomplish - IRIS has made it possible - Generative AI that uses verified data science to provide insights and expedite our advancement by performing experiments yielding real-world positive results. This has significantly reduced the time it takes for technology to be ready and marketable, reduces the workload, and saves a tremendous amount of money in the long run by allowing our discoveries to be 3 weeks away instead of 30 years. In contrast, scenarios where it is less appropriate are in nearly identical company when it comes to my third point (A double-edged sword, if you will.) We have a responsibility to ensure that this technology is used for a positive outcome and "Future:Forward" approach. This is the mark of true Evolution. It's up to us to keep it so.

It has been brilliant for us in terms of understanding the behaviour affecting our endpoints and assets. We have full visibility of our alerts, which menas we can act on them immediately. 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.

Cons
  • Suggestion 1) "RE:View" functionality.
  • Suggestion 2) "ION = EYE-ON" in Language processing.
  • Suggestion 3) Biological GUI+GPU integration.
  • Suggestion 4) Ability to "RE:Quest" IRIS Up-link/Down-link interaction. (Inter-Act w/(EYE-ON))

  • 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.

Secure work environment with this platform has enhanced effective workflow infrastructure. The cost of deployment and configuration capabilities with other security applications lead to main decision of acquiring this tool. The security control dashboards gives reliable performance reports that leads to quick decision-making when there are malware attacks. It gives lifecycle report for most work processes and threat intelligence information that enables my team to track workloads effectively.

Between Rapid7 InsightIDR and Crowdstrike, we liked Rapid7 InsightIDR due to the functionality of the system and the features Rapid7 InsightIDR has. Rapid7 InsightIDR was very easy to deploy in our environment to our endpoint devices. We like the scanning capabilities and the console we felt was very easy to use and can be easily caught up to our IT staff. Also during vulnerability scans, we felt that Rapid7 InsightIDR was able to detect more and any competitor out there.
