Pros
"The custom Cypress queries in BloodHound Enterprise is the most valuable feature."

More BloodHound Enterprise Pros →

"The solution helps us with authentication.""The reverse proxy feature provides additional security that is not available in other solutions.""The primary and most valuable aspect of Azure AD identity is its ability to function seamlessly on both on-premise and cloud infrastructure, eliminating the need for extensive updates. However, this dual solution can pose vulnerabilities that require substantial support and security measures in the on-premise environment. Despite the challenges, it is currently not feasible to completely abandon AD, especially for companies in the sales and energy sectors. The integration with Microsoft Defender is crucial for enhancing security, making identity and security the primary focus and purpose of Azure AD.""I use conditional access most of the time.""The tool is simple and you can find a lot of tutorials, and videos on YouTube that can help you."

Cons
"A few months ago, there was a problem with the digesters having trouble importing data from the normal digesters, a significant issue that needed attention."

More BloodHound Enterprise Cons →

"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.""Identity labeling and sensitivity needs improvement.""Azure AD could improve by enhancing the availability of specialized courses for security, such as NETSCOUT security or other relevant certifications. It would be beneficial to have specific courses for security, to provide in-depth knowledge and skills related to Azure AD. While there are micro-learning resources available for various concepts, many people in the IT industry may not have the time to go through all the courses to properly configure and utilize Azure Active Directory. Simplifying the implementation process and making it easier for individuals to join a company with Azure AD could also be considered areas for improvement.""The solution's sync should be faster since it can take about 30 minutes to two hours to complete a simple sync. The tool needs to sync instantly. It also needs to improve scalability, support, and stability.""The solution is not optimized to work with Mac devices on a granular level. They work seamlessly with Windows but have a lot to improve to work with Mac devices. It also needs to improve stability and scalability."

    Top Answer:Azure Active Directory Identity Protection is not very expensive. Security is not free, and it comes with a cost but the charge is reasonable.
    Top Answer:When it comes to logs, we don't have access to all of them because there's a limitation of 90 days for log retention. It would be a great option to have the ability to increase this duration in the… more »
