Endpoint defense has delivered strong incident response and supports deep behavior analytics
They should listen more to their community. They need to do a lot more bundling of things as part of it instead of treating everything as an upgrade or an enhancement. The problem that is hurting them is that there is a cost all the time for upgrading. They are late in the game. When you look at Exabeam, they have always been focused on behavior analytics. This new journey into that era has enhanced it because it provides detection and baselining of behavior when someone is using that endpoint. It is an added feature that has benefited the enterprise in terms of defensive depth. It is definitely a good feature.

Phishing awareness campaigns have improved training impact but still need smarter automation
I think Gophish could be improved with more automation, for instance. It is great that you can create templates, schedule them, and do everything you want in Gophish, but it would be nice to have a small integrated AI model with which you could create email templates and phishing templates. It would be nice if Gophish implemented artificial intelligence. I wish Gophish could provide more support and be more advanced and that they continue developing it because it seems that Gophish does not get many updates, and I think they need to implement more features. It is great because it is free, but it needs more features. It would be cool if there was an artificial intelligence model that could create phishing campaigns or templates or email templates for you integrated within Gophish. I would rate it a seven. It is quite good and free software, but it needs more substance. It also depends on the number of clients a company has; it may be necessary to launch Gophish in a staggered way, which I also think is a drawback Gophish has. The issue is that if there are many people being targeted, for example, 5,000 employees in a company and you send 5,000, it may be that sending so many messages gets blocked by the security systems companies have. I think that Gophish could also improve the message sending flows. I gave it a seven because there are things to improve and it is not perfect. As I said before, it would be nice if templates could be created with AI, integrated into Gophish using an API with Gemini or ChatGPT or whichever, but the point is that it would be nice if the sending flows at large scale were better managed. When you send a phishing campaign to 5,000 people, you have to send it in sections in a staggered way, for example: to these 5,000 people it is going to be sent between eight in the morning and four in the afternoon. If you send them all at once, the phishing may get blocked and then the campaign has no effect. I would like it if Gophish implemented more improvements because they are needed, as it is kind of a bit stagnant. I hope that in the future they add more improvements including creating personalized templates with artificial intelligence and improving the message sending flows.

Pros

"The risk rating gives a better view than Idera Discovery, with more information regarding the account, a severity-based risk rating, and breach types, which really helps us in formulating the IAM strategy."
"As a customer, what I appreciate most about the product is that it has already proven its worth because it was able to safeguard us against a clear cyberattack."
"As a customer, what I really appreciate about CrowdStrike, Inc. [Private Offer Only] is that it works effectively, blocking all ransomware and all software that users are trying to install that is not approved, working very well as an antivirus, and we also have the SOC of CrowdStrike, Inc. [Private Offer Only] team that helps us."
"CrowdStrike, Inc. [Private Offer Only] is the core of the EDR endpoint detection response in the market right now and it still is."
"The impact it has had is that we have been able to sell it to clients who, for example, do not have the money to pay for a platform because they are small startups, and so with Gophish we create a solution that is cheaper for them."
"Gophish has had a positive impact on my organization, as I noticed that since I used Gophish for the benefit of several clients, the maturity level of my clients was increasing."
"My advice to other professionals who are considering using Gophish is that it is a platform for people who are just starting out and do not have the resources and also do not have knowledge."

"Gophish has positively impacted my organization by increasing awareness among my employees."
"Gophish has positively impacted my organization by helping my team reach our goals."
 

Cons

"They should listen more to their community."
"At this moment, I do see that CrowdStrike could improve on how they handle the AI-related threats on cybersecurity, as we are not very familiar with that and don't have enough information on how CrowdStrike is going to deal with that part."
"I see drawbacks in CrowdStrike in the application field, where it detects if applications get used or not."
"The only negative thing I can think of for CrowdStrike, Inc. [Private Offer Only] is the web managing interface."
"The improvement I want to be made to Gophish is at the DNS level."
"The customer support needs improvement."
"I believe that Gophish can be improved by increasing the number of possible integrations."
"Although the tool is very good, I think there could be some improvements, especially when it comes to leveraging AI for testing and also when it comes to the expansion beyond email phishing."
"It does not handle lists well either, so when you have a big list of email addresses or users, it crashes, perhaps in the sending of the emails or somewhere else, but it crashes."
"For Gophish, there is a lack of integration with MFA and cookie captures that are more advanced attack methods."
"While I mentioned that one of the best features of Gophish is its reporting and analytics capabilities, I believe it requires more focus to become even better."
"I think Gophish could be improved because it is effective for its purpose, but there are certain features that can be enhanced."
