Providing comprehensive insight into alerts while working towards AI enhancement

I definitely recommend Rapid7 InsightIDR. It is becoming better, with improvements being continuously made to the product. Right now, I do not have any advice about Rapid7 for other users because every organization or user has different criteria or multiple use cases, so I refrain from commenting on that. I rate the overall solution seven out of ten.

The visibility and analytics from Securonix SIEM have become indispensable in identifying and stopping potential threats before they escalate.

The most valuable feature of Securonix Next-Gen SIEM is its advance analytics, flexibility and scalability. We ingest billions of logs without worrying about resource allocation. This makes it a robust and cost-effective solution for our needs. Its user entity and behavior analytics (UEBA) are also integral for detecting insider threats and lateral movements within the organization. These features help organizations strengthen their security posture, protect sensitive data, and maintain compliance with strict regulatory requirements.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution's initial setup is easy."

"It improved my organization by building a security alerting program."

"The solution is very scalable in terms of the licensing model."

"Another very important part of insightIDR is the ability to collect data from endpoint devices via agent software. With a large remote workforce, this allows visibility into the endpoints that are connected to the internet, but not to the corporate network."

"Features for user behavior analytics and the rules for attack review are good."

"The product works well. Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."

"The ability to ingest Office 365 log files, then process them into events and display them on a map."

"It is a very stable solution."

More Rapid7 InsightIDR pros

"One of the valuable features of Securonix is the auto-incident creation, which was not available two or three years ago."

"The solution is time-saving, particularly in the long run after it is deployed, enabling us to get value promptly."

"The customizability of the tool is valuable. We are able to customize the use cases and create them easily without a large amount of Securonix assistance. It's very flexible. We do not have to rely on Professional Services to modify or create a new use case."

"The second feature is that within the SNYPR product there is a functionality called Spotter. We use that for link analysis diagrams and to run the stats command. That's extremely useful because it replaces a tedious, manual process we used to use, using Microsoft Excel and a couple of other methods, to bring data together."

"There aren't any positive aspects of the solution. It was a complete failure. There are no redeeming features."

"One of the most valuable features it has is the thread chaining. One of the common issues that we always had was the number of anomalies that we used to get and the number of alerts that we used to get. But with this approach of thread chaining, we've found the false-positive rate has decreased very significantly. That was something that we never could have achieved before."

"I rate the technical support a nine out of ten. They're friendly. Whenever we have a P1 issue, we write an email and our issue is resolved in one or two hours."

"[The solution has] incident-management or case-management functionality. If someone were to download a high number and we decided we needed to investigate it, I could open a case right in the tool. It would be able to directly reference the data that they downloaded and we could open and shut the case directly in the tool, as well as report from it."

Cons

"Sometimes, it is hard to get the right queries to use. Currently, the tool lacks a pre-made set of queries."

"I would like to see more development in InsightIDR towards building their SIEM solution and converting it to XDR."

"It would be useful to import threat intelligence in YARA format along with known incorrect email addresses."

"Currently, it lacks the functionalities provided by Rapid7's User Behavior Analytics (UBA)."

"InsightIDR is only available in a cloud version. Some of our customers prefer an on-prem solution because they want to manage the security within their environment."

"Rapid7 doesn't integrate well with all our security tools from various vendors, so we plan to switch. Many of our solutions work with Rapid7, but some do not. We are already searching for a replacement already."

"I feel it would greatly benefit from more supported log sources."

"The integration capabilities of the solution have certain shortcomings where improvements are required."

More Rapid7 InsightIDR cons

"It takes too long to generate Spotter reports. For example, a 90-day report is around 100 megabytes. That takes a while, but a one-day report can be generated in a few seconds. We would be happy if they sped up the process."

"We thought they were going to be a great product, however, they're actually not great at all as an MSP."

"It could be improved a little bit more for admin users. There should be more administrative options related to security for admin users. For example, for forensic purposes, the admin should be able to stop a specific user from erasing some information. I would be helpful in certain situations, such as during an internal fraud."

"I face slowness issues sometimes."

"Parsing needs to be improved. Every time we integrate a new, specific data source, we face a lot of problems in parsing, even for the old data source."

"Securonix implements risk scores based on different policies that are triggered. We've seen some challenges with the risk scores and how they trigger. These are things that Securonix has recognized and they've been working with us to help improve things."

"It seems to me that within Securonix there is no option for completely visualizing the types of sources or if there is any loss of logs. I've heard that they have an additional module to validate those types of cases, but in terms of the platform itself only, I can only see how often it sends data but not any specific detail."

"The technical support of the solution is an area with shortcomings and needs improvement."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is more reasonably priced than other vendors."

"The solution has a mid-range price point in the market"

"The pricing is good, and it is not very expensive."

"Rapid7 InsightIDR charges us based on the endpoints we connect to."

"The pricing of the solution depends on the user. But there is a yearly licensing cost."

"It is a reasonably priced solution."

"Rapid7 InsightIDR's pricing is reasonable but we have challenges with the Minimum Order Quantity. It is not reasonable for customers who have less than one hundred devices. If they can reduce Minimum Order Quantity, it is good. You have to pay around 5000-6000 dollars per year for the product. The pricing includes maintenance and support costs."

"It is on a yearly basis. For our own company, for about 250 users, it was 16,000 euros a year."

More Rapid7 InsightIDR pricing and cost advice

"We have an annual license. We pay $200,000 for the base licensing and we pay another $50,000 for the software as a service."

"We went in on a three-year agreement which has an annual licensing fee, based upon the number of people that we're monitoring. There have not been any additional costs to the standard licensing fees."

"Compared to other known brands in the industry, the overall cost of the licenses is a bit higher than what customers expect."

"The solution's price is double the competitors."

"Its price is fine. We found it to be cheaper than LogRhythm, Exabeam, Splunk, as well as Elastic Security. A few months ago, when we were comparing Securonix with Elastic Security, we found Securonix to be cheaper than Elasticsearch. We were pretty surprised that Elastic Security is more expensive than Securonix because Elasticsearch is just starting, and it cannot compete with Securonix at this time. So, the pricing of Securonix is pretty good for now."

"I rate the pricing an eight on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is very expensive. It is a pretty expensive tool."

"Compared to other brands it seems more affordable to us."

"A good thing about Securonix is that they don't charge by volume of data or number of devices... They charge by the number of employees, which is a much more predictable number for me, versus data. Our costs are in the $100,000 range over a three-year subscription."
