Has significantly influenced our security strategy as it helps us plan attacks and take initial steps in compromising networks
I haven't explored cost-saving aspects or utilized integration capabilities within BloodHound. Additionally, I haven't used AI features in Broadcom for threat detection yet, leaving that to our IT team to handle. If you're already familiar with the field, learning to use BloodHound Enterprise shouldn't be too tricky as the UI is user-friendly and the features are straightforward. I'd rate my overall experience around an eight, mainly due to occasional performance issues and deeper operational concerns. However, in terms of features, UI, and ease of use, it's top-notch.

Identity protection has strengthened daily access control and improved passwordless security
The best features of Microsoft Entra ID Protection include the password dictionary, which we do not have in Active Directory. Conditional access is excellent because we can select the location from which users authenticate, and this is the best feature for me. Another valuable feature is the ability to identify critical or suspicious computers. If computers are too old or too suspicious, the system does not allow authentication, which is excellent. The effectiveness of automated remediation for handling identity threats is great. I use passwordless authentication with cellular phone authentication, which is excellent because we do not always need a password. Microsoft Entra ID Protection is a great solution overall because it improves security in the company through identity management. It improves integration with other solutions such as Google, Gmail, Hotmail, Outlook, and Facebook. We can create different applications and integrate with different services.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The custom Cypress queries in BloodHound Enterprise is the most valuable feature."
"The tool is simple and you can find a lot of tutorials, and videos on YouTube that can help you."
"The solution's technical support offers great assistance to users."
"The most valuable features are the API apps, which I use to connect to my cloud Protection."
"I recommend this product overall."
"As an end-user, I find the experience to be quite seamless. My main advantage is that I only need to manage one login and one two-factor authentication method to access all the necessary tools. I don't have to set up separate logins and authentication for each application."
"For me, automatization is most valuable."
"The features we find most effective for identity security include access reviews, two-factor authentication, and modification."
"The valuable features of Entra ID Protection include providing me visibility of my entire estate, managing access, and having a level of control."
 

Cons

"The product's initial setup phase is not easy."
"Integrating some notifications, not necessarily all, but at least for important events or alerts, would be beneficial as it would function as a team solution or something similar."
