Room For Improvement

<p>Weights &amp; Biases can enhance user experience by improving cost predictability, SDK, cloud integration, storage, and developer resources.</p>
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.

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.

Featured Reviews

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.

Tracking model metrics and artifacts has improved workflows but documentation needs clarity
In my opinion, the best features Weights & Biases offers are that they are easy to adapt and navigate through inside their UI, and I can check the model artifacts by versions. Sometimes when it throws errors, I can check them easily, and it has access control that's a good fit for corporate usage. What I like about the UI and the access control features is that they are just easy to navigate, easy to understand, and finding is also easy. Weights & Biases has positively impacted my organization a lot because many users are using Weights & Biases for tracking models and seeing metrics. I believe it places a lot less weight on setting up this tracking method. I can share specific outcomes or metrics since using Weights & Biases. For example, I can check each epoch's model artifacts and see how effectively it worked on my evaluation set, and it can be fetched by the unique ID.
