Providing comprehensive insight into alerts while working towards AI enhancement

I definitely recommend Rapid7 InsightIDR. It is becoming better, with improvements being continuously made to the product. Right now, I do not have any advice about Rapid7 for other users because every organization or user has different criteria or multiple use cases, so I refrain from commenting on that. I rate the overall solution seven out of ten.

It integrates well with other platforms, is user-friendly, and is stable

SentinelOne Singularity Complete integrates with our other security solutions, correlating data from NDR, ADR, SIEM, and XDR tools. All this information is consolidated within SentinelOne, providing a centralized access point. SentinelOne Singularity Complete has helped us streamline our security operations by consolidating multiple solutions into a single platform. We are currently in the process of acquiring a threat intelligence platform to complete our security stack. We use Ranger to monitor our network and track connected devices. This is crucial because it helps us quickly identify unauthorized machines connected to our infrastructure, including personal devices. We have additional security measures in place, but Ranger provides an extra layer of protection. It also alerts us if the SentinelOne Singularity Complete agent is missing from any new or existing machines, allowing us to take appropriate action. SentinelOne Ranger's agentless and hardware-independent nature is crucial for our environment with 26,000 endpoints, as manual management of such a large number would be extremely challenging. Ranger uses a multi-layered approach to prevent vulnerable devices from being compromised. We employ scanners, network configurations, and a risk scanner to assess devices, endpoints, servers, and cloud infrastructures. Vulnerability reports and timelines for remediation are shared with device owners or custodians. This proactive strategy enables us to address vulnerabilities efficiently and secure our infrastructure. SentinelOne Singularity Complete has significantly enhanced our security posture. While no system is impenetrable, this solution has brought us closer to achieving a high level of protection, ensuring we maintain at least a 90 percent security level. Our team is dedicated to refining alerts and eliminating false positives from our solutions. Additionally, a team is responsible for identifying and excluding alerts from the solution. We can manually expedite this process by reviewing these elements and utilizing our security tools. We have been able to reduce the alert volume by 20 percent. Our 30-member Security Operations Center team has been able to redirect their focus to other tasks due to the time saved after implementing SentinelOne Singularity Complete. SentinelOne Singularity Complete has helped us improve our mean time to detect threats, which we accomplish using the Vigilance service for detection and response. SentinelOne Singularity Complete has helped us decrease our organizational risk. We utilize the Security Scorecard to manage our security posture, which has remained steady at 90 percent.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"The platform offers unlimited storage and agent-based solutions."

"I like the tool's user analysis feature."

"Features for user behavior analytics and the rules for attack review are good."

"The biggest reason why we chose Rapid7 was to gain value in a really quick time. Its deployment doesn't take months. It just takes a few days."

"I have seen that Rapid7 InsightIDR provides security to the networks and endpoints in the company."

"Rapid7 InsightIDR integrates well with other solutions. It's also easy to configure because Rapid7 InsightIDR has a lot of instructions posted on their website that customers can follow if they need to get the source log."

"I am able to run automated actions based on the output of reports, leaving me extra time to focus on more pressing matters."

"Very intuitive and easy to set up."

More Rapid7 InsightIDR pros

"The Microsoft integrations are most valuable right now."

"It delivers the type of security which we were hoping for, since we have a lot of different endpoint users utilizing different types of software. We have people who only use Office software, like email, Word, and PDFs. Then, we have people who use some applications that other people wrote. We also write applications in-house using people who develop software. Therefore, we have some machines using very high-end developer software for mechanical development, electronic development, and software development. Those users are used to managing their PC on their own. The centralize platform allows us to differentiate between those three groups of people. We have overall control and can oversee the security levels at all the endpoints. They have not yet been blocked in any way when performing the functions"

"The AI solution makes it easy for customers to detect and manage policies, as well as documents that help customers manage their platform."

"They provide a map, a process tree, and that is pretty good for analysis."

"The most valuable features are forensic investigation and ransomware prevention."

"The Deep Visibility feature is the most useful part of the EDR platform. It gives us good insights into what is actually happening on the endpoints, e.g., when we have malicious or suspicious activity. We came from a legacy type AV previously, so we didn't have that level of visibility or understanding. For simplifying threat-hunting, it is extremely useful, where traditional techniques in threat hunting are quite laborious. We can put in indicators of compromise and it will sweep the environment for them, then they would give us a breakdown of what assets have been seen and where they have been seen, which is more of a forensics overview."

"The deep visibility is really important for us. With it, we can really look deep into some of the incidents."

"The best part of the agent is that users can't remove or disable it, so endpoints will be safe. I can control it from the portal. I can see when it's updated and I can push updates from the portal. The greatness of SentinelOne is that our end-users don't see anything to do with the agents. Some of them don't even know it's on their laptops. And that's a good thing."

Cons

"The main problem lies in the processes within the client's operating systems."

"The searching feature in Rapid7 InsightIDR needs to evolve"

"The interface for doing investigation needs to be enhanced with minor improvements that would make it more useful."

"Currently, it lacks the functionalities provided by Rapid7's User Behavior Analytics (UBA)."

"Sometimes, it is hard to get the right queries to use. Currently, the tool lacks a pre-made set of queries."

"Needs a better ability to customize the check within the console."

"There is a future in AI with Rapid7, however, it is not fully operated. There are certain limitations with Rapid7 that I am working on."

"There are certain limitations with Rapid7 that I am working on."

More Rapid7 InsightIDR cons

"The compatibility with new legacy systems should be enhanced as other EDR products support these systems, which Singularity does not."

"The solution does not have an application security and control module."

"I would like to see a better mobile app so that I could look through my phone at the alerts and not have to go to the website. They should make it a little more mobile-accessible."

"I would appreciate it if they would consider providing a comprehensive vulnerability assessment report that goes beyond just application vulnerabilities."

"The management console."

"Although the SentinelOne firewall seems to offer potential benefits, in reality, it hasn't proven to be very helpful."

"In the beginning, we had some issues with their product on some of the Windows 32-bit operating systems."

"The overall integration functionality for this solution could be improved."

More SentinelOne Singularity Complete cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Accurately predict your licensing counts as this is a subscription based product."

"The pricing is good, and it is not very expensive."

"The pricing of the solution depends on the user. But there is a yearly licensing cost."

"Licensing is by endpoint and amount of retention time (at least ours is). Default retention was one year, but we are able to push the retention further if needed. There's also a provide-your-own-S3 option for longer retention if you don't want to pay for the additional retention years in your Rapid7 agreement."

"Rapid7 InsightIDR is a cheaply priced product. On a scale of one to ten, where one is very expensive, and ten is very cheap, I rate the product's price at seven or eight."

"I am sure that there are cheaper products out there, but none that meet so many of our needs whilst maintaining stability and usability."

"Rapid7 InsightIDR's pricing is reasonable."

"The team is very willing to work with companies. My suggestion is to call the Rapid7 sales department and see how they can help."

More Rapid7 InsightIDR pricing and cost advice

"The per-seat cost is low, but you have to commit to a certain number of licenses for a year."

"Our licensing fees are about $5 USD per endpoint, per month."

"It is very competitive with other solutions that are on the market. At least the last time we renewed, it was very competitive."

"SentinelOne can cost approximately $70 per device."

"After negotiations, the pricing was found to be fair."

"SentinelOne Singularity Complete is expensive, but we must be willing to pay for it if we want a high level of protection."

"The pricing for SentinelOne Singularity Complete is competitive."

"I rate Singularity Complete a seven out of ten for affordability. It's more expensive than our previous solution, but it does its job well. At the same time, there is some room for improvement. Cheaper is always better."
