Has improved vulnerability detection efficiency but still requires better help desk integration
The positive aspect is that within CrowdStrike Falcon Exposure Management, there is seamless integrity within vulnerability management. We don't need to deploy sensors within the campus because we have a university environment with multiple campuses in the region. In this scenario, the EDR, which is already deployed as a sensor, helps us scan vulnerabilities without installing any other agents in the system. It's quite seamless, and within the EDR dashboard, we can see the vulnerability of a device. In case of an attack or suspicious activity, we can map the vulnerabilities against that particular malicious activity. Although we don't need to deal directly with the machine learning part, it works quite efficiently, and the learning algorithms are also quite efficient in that perspective. Regarding automated asset discovery tools in CrowdStrike Falcon Exposure Management, it was previously very hard to identify which PCs and servers had EDR. Now with exposure management, it's very easy to identify which servers are not having EDR in our environment. We can identify unmanaged assets and managed assets very easily, and it helps us reduce risk within the environment. We found many critical servers that didn't have EDR before enabling exposure management. The central dashboard is helpful for our team to respond to threats faster. It is quite automated, and direct team involvement is very low. Many cases are automatically dealt with within CrowdStrike. The workflows are quite seamless and easy to define. In case of any vulnerability or malicious activity, it automatically contains a device and isolates a particular system from the environment. This way, the support team is not crowded with different tickets and false positives.

Rapid7 Exposure Command is not as easy to deploy compared to Qualys, and the detection rates are lower than Qualys. Rapid7 Exposure Command is not exactly complex, but it is medium complex when I compare it to Qualys, where the deployment procedure is quite straightforward. Detection needs more depth in Rapid7 Exposure Command, and when I compare it with Qualys, the output of vulnerabilities can be improved at a depth level. That is one of the major pieces of feedback I have. The detection rate of vulnerabilities is not up to par, and that is one of the most important things that every firm looks for.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros
