Room For Improvement

Check Point Infinity suffers from slow support, high costs, unclear documentation, confusing licensing, and a cumbersome user experience.
Rapid7 InsightCloudSec needs UI/UX improvements, better third-party integration, enhanced reporting, and refined risk prioritization and detection capabilities.
A more guided setup process or contextual help within the dashboard would make it easier for new team members to get up to speed.
Cloud Support at a security firm with 51-200 employees
I would recommend having more comprehensive documentation, including a guide for installation and configuration of Check Point Infinity.
Network Engineer at Insa
I would improve Check Point Infinity by embedding some sort of analytics that indicates which attacks are coming from specific IP addresses very often so that we can block those IP addresses.
Advisor at Rossell Techsys (Division of Rossell India Limited)
Rapid7 InsightCloudSec already provides us real-time feedback loops, but if it also provides real-time feedback to the developers, then it would help the application shift left, meaning the security will shift left as well.
Site Reliability Engineer at a comms service provider with 501-1,000 employees
Rapid7 InsightCloudSec needs improvements such as AI-driven risk prioritization, proactive cloud risk modeling, advanced IAM privilege analysis, multi-cloud attack path mapping, pre-built automated hardening, defining stronger policy as code support, better container and serverless coverage, and cost optimization insight along with safe auto-remediation with rollback improvements.
Cybersecurity analyst at Cornerstone OnDemand
If you can improve the traditional detection rules to reflect current detection rules, it would make it significantly easier for us to manage, as we constantly need to check legacy rules to update or possibly turn them off. Updating the legacy rules should be a priority.

Setup Cost

Enterprises have mixed views on Check Point Infinity's pricing, appreciating flexibility but finding costs high for certain features.
Rapid7 InsightCloudSec offers competitive, cost-efficient cloud security management with reasonable pricing, seamless licensing, and straightforward setup.

We received a relative discount for this.
Team Lead, Network & Security at Max international
It is cheaper.
Senior Cloud Security Engineer at a educational organization with 10,001+ employees
The more numbers you have, the less costly the product becomes, as licensing operates on volume.
Junior systems engineer at a tech services company with 11-50 employees
While it was not overly expensive, I do wish for more discounts for bulk purchases since we have implemented it widely across our cloud security posture.

Featured Reviews

Chetan Bhati - PeerSpot reviewer
Network Security Engineer at Arrow PC Network Pvt Ltd
Improves daily threat prevention with real-time detection and requires better alert tuning for faster prioritization
Check Point Infinity is powerful, but there are a few areas that could improve. The learning curve for new users can be steep, especially when managing multiple modules like CloudGuard, Quantum, and Harmony together. Some alerts can be overwhelming, making it harder to prioritize without fine-tuning. While automation helps, occasional manual adjustments are still needed. Overall, it is strong, but simplifying onboarding and alert management would make it even better. Integration with third-party tools could be smoother. The reporting dashboard could be more customizable for quick insights. Performance on very large networks can sometimes slow during updates. Overall, while the platform is strong, improving user experience, alert management, and integration would make it even more efficient for daily operations.
Arun Babu - PeerSpot reviewer
SOC analyst at a media company with 1,001-5,000 employees
Daily endpoint monitoring has improved investigations and saved time but detection rules still need tuning
It is important to note that Rapid7 InsightCloudSec's features are not 100% precise, but I find about 70% of the time it is satisfactory. I would like to suggest that you improve it to be more precise, ideally making it 100% if possible. Some cases in Rapid7 InsightCloudSec indicate that the log is not enough, as they mostly just generate alerts, and the synchronization between data connectors is often problematic, particularly in terms of not being in sync always, especially between the AD and Rapid7 alerts, which generates numerous false positives. Additionally, the traditional rules should be updated, as this is a main point worth mentioning since we spend a lot of time fine-tuning these traditional rules. I suggest improving the legacy detection rules. If there are any authentication cases, such as impossible travel activity where a user has their SharePoint hosted in a different location, Rapid7 can often trigger alerts, creating confusion as we cannot fine-tune it properly. Another issue is with honeypot access. We sometimes lack necessary logs because Defender's advanced threat protection scanning gets detected as honeypot activity by Rapid7, leading to annoying and noisy alerts that we need to constantly close. If you can improve the traditional detection rules to reflect current detection rules, it would make it significantly easier for us to manage, as we constantly need to check legacy rules to update or possibly turn them off. Updating the legacy rules should be a priority.
