Great at showcasing vulnerabilities, excellent at providing alerts, and offers very good technical support
You need to know how to work with your assets and put the right items in place.

I would like it if there was more visibility and insights about what's going on with ransomware all over the internet. IntSights is not 100% following the critical ransomware and the critical items over the internet. However, everyone is afraid to get hit by ransomware. They are not there yet in terms of really covering that style of attack. I'd like to see more from them.
