Huntress vs. KeePassXC

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.

Whenever I have an employee that needs a secure way of storing personal passwords, this is my go to option

• 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.

Incentivized

• Easy to use
• Secure, with a variety of encryption options
• Can perform autotype on Xorg

• 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.

Incentivized

• Usability is worse if compared to other solutions but this is a good thing
• References are a good feature, but it may be complicated to make them work as expected
• Integration with other applications like browsers can be definitely improved
• Features like secure notes and storing secrets that are not credentials but very sensitive like credit cards are definitely missed.

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.

I think some of the interface could be improved. Also, it would be nice to have autotype working in Wayland. Other than that though, it's easy enough that I've been able to teach non-technical people how to use it effectively.

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.

They are not exactly the same. KeePassXC is good for secure storing locally secrets like credentials. All the password managers mentioned above rely on storing data in the cloud and synchronization with various devices. KeePassXC definitely has much smaller attack surface. But at the cost of usability.

• 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.

• It is hard to quantify what was ROI on something which didn't happen. Let's say 1password was breached and the data was exposed. Since you're absolutely mission critical secure data was not there you scored big.
• Simplicity of the KeePassXC management is definitely good for ROI
• And since it's free and open source the cost of ownership is very low.
