Automation has improved detection workflows and provides real-time visibility across all logs
Carasoft Services for Rapid 7 could be improved in terms of integration of Windows log sources. Rapid 7 SIEM has a feature whereby I can integrate Active Directory. However, when I want to integrate system logs, application logs, and everything from my event viewer, Rapid 7 does not have a customized feature for that. Most times, I have to leverage NXLog, which is not ideal. It would be better to have a ready-to-go plugin for it. Additionally, for InsightConnect, an orchestrator, sometimes when I am integrating with third-party ticketing solutions, SNMP might give me issues. Finally, the TLS feature of Rapid 7 is a bit unreliable.

I believe Windows Server 2022 (Windows Server 2022) | Support by SupportedImages can still be improved; it is not perfect yet. I think there should be a lesser number of patches, as every time the system is patched, the vulnerabilities that I scan always show some vulnerabilities. The product should be hardened from the beginning itself. Nothing else comes to mind now regarding disadvantages, but perhaps it requires more brainstorming. So far, I think it is all good with no additional features or integrations needed in Windows Server 2022 (Windows Server 2022) | Support by SupportedImages. Security must be enhanced, for sure.
