Huntress is a security platform that surfaces hidden threats, vulnerabilities, and exploits.
The platform helps IT resellers protect their customers from persistent footholds, ransomware and other attacks.
As I'm working for the banking sector, our utmost importance is the security of the network. Check Point ThreatCloud helps to ensure the security by making sure the threats are monitored and treated according to the Bank's IT policy. When it comes to the ATM Network, Check Point ThreatCloud plays a severe role.
A great product that highlights any and all persistent footholds on the network and does a great job on breach monitoring. The support staff are great, efficient, and are able to reach out when there is an issue. Most problems are cleared out/mitigated before we even know about them. A great product to add to your security stack.
Using the latest industry knowledge of threats that have been ongoing, but not previously known and projecting it back in time against their installed endpoints to identify machines that are vulnerable or breached and when it these events occurred
Very quiet. If they alert, it is a thing.
Very good at remediation.
They communicate extremely well when it matters.
While there are the most extensive products more often than not they are the first to alert us to a threat.
We dropped SentinelOne in favor of Huntress because the UI was much more simplistic for the tier 1 techs to maintain. It beats the old web design model of three clicks to where you want to go. It is very intuitive. No one needs training to figure out how to navigate its console.
If you have the Checkpoint firewalls, the only real solution is the Check Point ThreatCloud to be used. If you have PAN - Autofocus or Fortinet-fortiguard. One advantage of Check Point ThreatCloud is the elimination of web security services, as the checkpoint with the threat cloud replaces the web security solutions with its vast features. Check Point products are very easy to use, and operation costs are much lower than the other vendors.
Huntress may not be a complete SOC such as Blackpoint, but the level of protection is close. Huntress provides a set of human eyes always hunting for persistent threats on your endpoints. Huntress also seems less noisy with no false positives, so no time is wasted reviewing alerts.
High score rates [are] seen on breach systems after deploying systems integrated with [Check Point] ThreatCloud
Catch rates are very high compared to other vendors
One missing thing is the detection for localized URLs and IPs
Purchasing within the 3-year perspective is cheap compared to other solutions; ROI is generally six months
[Check Point] ThreatCloud eliminates the need [for] other additional services that may need to be deployed like dedicated IPS, Dedicated Sandbox, DNS solution, etc.
