CST VerdictBased on our analysis of NIST CSF 2.0 coverage, core features, company size fit, deployment model, here is our conclusion:
Mid-market and enterprise security teams with exposed APIs, web applications, or IoT infrastructure should use ShadowPlex to catch reconnaissance and credential attacks before they reach production systems. The platform's external-facing decoys generate high-fidelity threat intelligence in STIX format while monitoring for password spraying and brute-force attempts, directly addressing ID.RA and DE.CM in NIST CSF 2.0. Skip this if your attack surface is entirely internal or if you need deep visibility into post-breach lateral movement; ShadowPlex is optimized for early detection at the perimeter, not incident response.
Honeypot operators who need to spot attack patterns across distributed sensors will find value in HpfeedsHoneyGraph's ability to visualize hpfeeds traffic in ways raw logs obscure. The tool is free and open-source, lowering the friction to deploy alongside existing honeypot infrastructure. This is purpose-built for teams already committed to the hpfeeds protocol; if you're evaluating honeypot platforms from scratch or need alerting and response automation layered on top of visualization, you'll outgrow the graphing view quickly.
