Valuable Features
While threat hunting is undoubtedly the most valuable feature, the combination of IP scanning, foothold identification, and canary monitoring has also proven to be incredibly beneficial.
By minimizing the time we spend identifying risks, Huntress helps us reduce the overall risk landscape for our clients. They are also great partners to work with, and we saw the benefits almost immediately.
Huntress's 24/7 managed service significantly improved our overall workflow and empowered our employees to focus on tasks aligned with their skill sets. This has enabled them to develop their expertise and take on greater responsibilities.
The ability to automatically remediate the low severity threats is great.
Huntress has improved our overall security posture. We were able to start improving our security within the first three months of deployment.
Results
Organizations are comfortable taking on certain calculated risks. However, I believe we need to employ specific types of staff to align our service delivery with our resource allocation. The Huntress platform has facilitated this crucial realignment.
The tool itself does not require maintenance but there is ongoing management.
Users should ensure they have an accurate inventory of the assets they need to protect, the chosen protection methods, and any additional relevant details. Assigning one or two dedicated individuals as "Champions" of the tool will help them fully leverage its benefits.
I rate Huntress a nine out of ten.
