CST VerdictBased on our analysis of NIST CSF 2.0 coverage, core features, integrations, company size fit, here is our conclusion:
MSPs protecting SMB and mid-market clients need DefensX primarily for its browser isolation that doesn't require endpoint agents, letting you secure legacy Windows systems and BYOD devices without deployment friction. The platform covers four NIST CSF 2.0 functions (Platform Security, Data Security, Identity Management, and Continuous Monitoring), which is uncommon for browser isolation tools that typically excel only at perimeter defense. Skip this if you're an enterprise buyer expecting advanced threat hunting or post-compromise investigation; DefensX prioritizes blocking over forensics and lacks the depth of a full EDR layer.
Enterprise security and investigations teams conducting threat research or due diligence on untrusted domains need Authentic8 Silo for Research to isolate browser activity without touching their network or endpoints. The cloud-native architecture with centralized policy management and audit logging covers PR.IR and PR.DS in NIST CSF 2.0, meaning you get infrastructure resilience and data protection without standing up your own isolation infrastructure. Skip this if your team is primarily focused on endpoint detection and response; Silo is built for researchers who need anonymous web access with forensic records, not for blocking malware at the perimeter.
