Hoxhunt vs. Huntress

If emails are used for confidential communication, Hoxhunt is a HUGE benefit. I have caught myself feeling lax over emailing and clicking links. Hoxhunt makes you really evaluate safety and legitimacy of the emails that are received. We even have laughs about it at staff meetings where staff admit to getting "hoxhunted" and clicking a fake link.

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.

• Training Packages - They cover a wide range of topics that spam emails, social media and physical security such as USB sticks
• Achievements as incentives - The gaming style of collecting achievements and stars for reporting emails or completing training incentivizes people to engage in a consistent and enthusiastic way.
• Training Emails - They are able to replicate phishing emails in a realistic way, so it isn't easy to spot straight away meaning we now look at every email with a critical eye which makes us safer.

• 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.

• More training opportunities - The Hoxhunt page itself only has a few training modules which I have completed already
• An even spicier spicy mode - Scammers are always evolving, so I want to be able to identify the toughest phishing attempts.
• Eliminate "missed" emails. Sometimes I don't read my inbox right away. I don't think emails should count as "missed" just because I didn't report it within a few days.

• Now that they have EDR capability, they need to fully participate in MITRE testing for direct comparison against other EDR products.
• Now that they are going into Managed Antivirus and EDR with isolation capabilities they need to update their SLA comparative to other vendors
• Support for non-Windows OSes for consistency in a network
• It would be nice to seed canary files in custom shares on servers.

it is very easy to use. it is clear and provides information as to why the type of email is one to look out for. It automatically takes you to the required information when you have spotted that it is a Hoxhunt email.

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.

Symantec was something I used in my previous company, it had some issues once in a while where I had to re-generate the code for my new ID. I know its for over all protection, but if I didn't have my phone that day, I'd be unable to log in. Hoxhunt helps that way as there is a SSO authentication and needs the fingerprint, I guess it works different for different companies based on their regulations and privacy protection. Haven't really used any other tool like this

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.

• I have been able to identify and report 3 real scam emails thanks to Hoxhunt.
• Unfortunately I have no data of the overall company's benefit with regards to the use of Hoxhunt.
• The training has also been helpful to me in my personal email. I think that helps with work productivity, because I haven't been in the situation where I'm worrying about having been scammed outside of work.

• We have been able to lower operational costs by shifting to Huntress.
• We've been able to cut costs to our clients by utilizing Huntress over competing products.
• In spite of inflation, we've been able to keep our managed service prices at a steady, below market rate, because of Huntress.
