What is your primary use case for Huntress?

Our use case is to fill some security gaps that we have, especially regarding the antivirus suite that we use, which doesn't have the full capabilities of Huntress Managed EDR. Huntress Managed EDR's managed EDR capabilities allow us to take that information and use it effectively to identify any threats that may have been missed through the various layers.

Huntress Managed EDR serves as our cornerstone endpoint detection and response solution for protecting endpoints. We use Huntress Managed EDR for the extended visibility into process insights that exist on devices. An example of when it specifically helped our team is when one of the new types of attacks called clickfix happened. Essentially, this attack involves getting users to fill out a fake captcha that has them running malicious code through the run dialogue on their devices, which is a pretty novel and new style of attack. Huntress picked up on that, created new rules, and we had an instance where a client endpoint was victim to that attack and Huntress detected it.

I haven't utilized their cybersecurity awareness training because we use KnowBe4 for that, but when it comes to ITDR, EDR, and SIEM, I've used all of those products. I use them fairly regularly with my clients, so we have four different offerings when it comes to EDR: SentinelOne, Sophos, Huntress Managed EDR, and ThreatLocker, which we actually just recently added to our line card. When it comes to Huntress Managed EDR, it's been my preferred ITDR and EDR because we've had great success utilizing Huntress Managed EDR's own network and security operations center. EDR is a requirement for every business that we work with. A lot of the businesses that we work with usually have something as simple as Webroot, which is more geared towards residential use. I always recommend something more robust when it comes to business-grade EDR. That's been my experience with Huntress Managed EDR—getting people switched over from these really basic antivirus software that they have. It's been significantly more secure, especially because we get to offload some of the work from our engineers to Huntress Managed EDR's own security operations center. It's helped make our organization more secure, our clients more secure, and also helped offload a significant workload from our engineers. I actually just had a client who had a breach. They brought us in after the fact and their email was getting locked down by ransomware. I was immediately able to deploy Huntress Managed EDR to help remediate that issue.

Huntress Managed EDR is used for endpoint protection for our customer base, as we are a managed service provider.

My main use case for Huntress Managed EDR is that I am an MSP, so I have incorporated Huntress Managed EDR into my offering for all my clients as a default MDR solution. This means that any client machines which I manage always have Huntress Managed EDR installed on them for managed detection and response. A quick, specific example of how I use Huntress Managed EDR for one of my clients involves a client in health services where Huntress Managed EDR found that they were storing passwords in plain text in Excel files on their client machines. Huntress Managed EDR pointed this out to me, and I spoke with the client to let them know about the potential security risk of those files being present, and we resolved the issue. My main use case for Huntress Managed EDR is that it actually provides a fully autonomous solution, so I do not have to worry about day-to-day operations or manually going through all the logs and antivirus alarms to check whether all my clients are secure or not. I can rely on Huntress Managed EDR to alert me of any abnormalities or anomalies and to help resolve any issues.

We deployed Huntress Managed EDR across all end-user devices, physical servers, virtual servers in Azure, and is also used for managed ITDR and SIM as the main use case for EDR and managed detection and response.

Huntress Managed EDR is my main use case as part of a package for our managed and co-managed IT services. A specific example of how I use Huntress in my managed or co-managed IT services is that it is a part of the package that we sell.

My main use case for Huntress Managed EDR is for monitoring and reacting. Huntress Managed EDR has been helping us monitor files inside the computers and reporting files. Huntress Managed EDR helped with identifying people that save passwords on their computers, or files that are adware that get flagged and stopped by Huntress. I also rely on Huntress Managed EDR for its interaction with Windows Defender. The interaction with Windows Defender makes things easier and more effective for my team.

Huntress Managed EDR is our primary EDR for all of our managed devices at our MSP. We put Huntress Managed EDR on all Windows and Mac endpoints that we manage, and it is the primary tool that finds threats on those devices. We've had very good success with it identifying any persistent compromises or unusual files and unusual activity. We also use it to manage Windows Defender, which is the antivirus we use on our managed devices. We've been using Huntress Managed EDR for so long that it's hard to know what things would be like without it, but we have avoided any ransomware incidents on machines we manage for seven years, and all breaches have been isolated and identified very quickly. We've never run into any situation where there was a persistent compromise on a device that Huntress Managed EDR did not detect. Over seven years, we've found it to be very, very effective. Deploying Huntress Managed EDR gave us an immediate improvement in security.

My main use case for Huntress Managed EDR is endpoint protection for all of our clients. A specific example of how I use Huntress Managed EDR for endpoint protection with my clients is that it is a standard for all of our managed clients, and we deploy it on every endpoint.

My main use case for Huntress Managed EDR is securing our digital estate and providing that same level of security to our customer base. A specific example of how I use Huntress for that purpose is that I leverage the SOC's expertise to analyze events and signals and rely on their advice and guidance on how to proceed with threats in an ever-evolving landscape.

My main use case for Huntress Managed EDR is that we are an MSP, so we use MDR to protect our clients' endpoints.

My main use case for Huntress Managed EDR is having a 24/7 backed SOC to protect all our clients. Huntress Managed EDR is configured with Defender for 100% of our client base as a specific example of how I use it with my clients.

My main use case for Huntress Managed EDR is for malware and EDR protection for endpoints. I use Huntress Managed EDR for endpoint protection in my environment on Windows and Mac devices, as it integrates with Defender and protects devices from threats.

My main use case for Huntress Managed EDR is providing threat hunting and remediation on top of Microsoft Defender.

We control our devices using Huntress Managed EDR, since it provides 24/7 support for all our devices. For low security, medium security, or severe security alerts, Huntress Managed EDR takes care of everything for us.

We use Huntress Managed EDR as part of our tech offering for enhanced security, especially for small and medium businesses.

We use Huntress Managed EDR for threat hunting with our clients to try to keep their environment safe and make sure that if there's any kind of bad activity going on, we can try to find out about it early enough and take proactive steps. We know our client's environment really well, and so we want to make sure that we are thinking about all things before remediating. If it is something that's really critical, Huntress will isolate the system so that it can't do any additional damage, but we generally remediate ourselves. The ability for their team to remediate is a nice feature.

I use Huntress Managed EDR for my Windows computers. I use a lot of Linux for my personal activities, but I have Windows computers for some people who work with me, and I keep it on those. I have combined the use of Huntress Managed EDR with other solutions, such as Flare.io. That's another tool we use in our stack. My stack includes Huntress, Flare, Cynet, and some open-source solutions such as Snort running on my router, Zeek, and Security Onion running on the LAN side, and everything works without conflicts.

We use it for our clients and ourselves. Huntress is a pretty comprehensive platform. Recently, they acquired the security awareness training platform, which helps us to fulfill our clients' needs regarding security. It has been pretty good. A lot of our clients are growing in this area. Traditionally, we have been using it for endpoint protection, which has been effective in many situations.

We are a managed service provider with a wide range of clients. We support their businesses and computers, and as a standard, we install the software on any of the computers we manage.

I use Huntress Managed EDR on all my clients' PCs across our organization and others. Even when clients decline the service, I install it on their machines to enhance overall security, providing it for free to those who cannot afford it. I ensure every device under our management has this protection. Our Huntress deployment is considered hybrid because it requires an agent on each machine to communicate with the Huntress Security Operations Center and then display the information on a centralized dashboard. This setup allows me to monitor the status of all my machines remotely.

We needed a solution to monitor two customer servers and a desktop server for threats, particularly during development. Therefore, we chose Huntress Managed EDR.

We rely on it as our Managed Detection and Response (MDR) and Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) solution. We rely on them to monitor any attacks and vulnerabilities. Huntress serves as a live Security Operations Center (SOC) for our managed endpoint protection, eliminating the need to manually scan logs and pick up on triggers.

We're a managed service provider, so we resell Huntress Managed EDR to our customers. We use the EDR and the MDR products, which provide endpoint and 365 protection.

We roll Huntress out across the board. It's in our base security shield, so we use it everywhere. We also use ThreatLocker. It's an application for allowlisting and blocklisting. It blocks any software from running unless you approve it. Huntress is there in case we approve something that we shouldn't or if something that we already approved gets an update with something wrong.

It integrates seamlessly with RMM, making it easy to roll out and use. Many fixes are automated, so you can approve them and let the system handle them, avoiding the need to go through individual steps. If something serious comes up, they proactively make phone calls and lock things down in advance. It simplifies my job rather than adding it.

We use Huntress' EDR tools, security operation center back end, security awareness training, and Microsoft Defender.

We're a managed service provider, and we install Huntress on our clients' computers to keep them safe.

We use the solution as our antivirus.

This is the tool that we use to keep our devices, the endpoints, protected.

We're a Huntress partner. It's being used by certain clients as an alternative to mainstream EDRs.

The client had likely experienced ransomware attacks and wanted to adopt a more proactive approach to address such threats. They needed a solution that would minimize downtime and avoid disruptive incidents.

We are a Managed Service Provider. We use the solution to offer extra protection to customer machines.

We use their EDR platform and their MDR platform. By implementing Huntress, we wanted to add another layer of security to our workstations across all of our clients.

We utilize Huntress for endpoint protection across the accounts we manage. When requiring endpoint detection and response capabilities, we leverage Huntress for that functionality as well. Instead of relying solely on basic antivirus software, we implemented Huntress to elevate our security posture. This empowered us not only to proactively track down threats but also to collaborate with experts in identifying and remediating them.

Huntress is a product that we automatically deploy to all our clients. It functions as a basic antivirus solution for most of them. We roll out Huntress immediately after deploying our Kaseya agent to conduct a quick sanity check on the network endpoints and ensure no hidden threats are lurking. It's one of the first tools we use and is included as part of our standard package. By providing a baseline assessment, Huntress gives us peace of mind that no unexpected issues are lurking in the network. Security stacks weren't a common thing in the past, but they've grown dramatically in popularity. Today, we rely on a mature and robust security stack, with Huntress as the first line of defense. This represents a significant shift from our previous reliance on antivirus software, which only reacted to known threats. Unlike antivirus, Huntress proactively investigates potential threats and identifies hidden risks. Huntress offers two solutions: an on-premises agent and a cloud platform. We manage the cloud platform and deploy their agent to our client systems.

I use Huntress as an EDR tool to detect, prevent, and block any attacks.

We use Huntress with other antivirus solutions like Microsoft Defender to ascertain the issues that happen at the endpoints which antivirus solutions may not always pick up.

Our primary use case for the Huntress solution is cybersecurity.

I deploy Huntress to my mid-tier clients to leverage 24/7, 365 threat-hunting capabilities.
