We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"As a frequently audited company, we value PingSafe's compliance monitoring features. They give us a report with a compliance score for how well we meet certain regulatory standards, like HIPAA. We can show our compliance as a percentage. It's also a way to show that we are serious about security.""PingSafe offers an intuitive user interface that lets us navigate quickly and easily.""The visibility is the best part of the solution.""The solution's most valuable features are its ability to detect vulnerabilities inside AWS resources and its ability to rescan after a specific duration set by the administrator.""The user interface is well-designed and easy to navigate.""The real-time detection and response capabilities overall are great.""It is very straightforward. It is not complicated. For the information that it provides, it does a pretty good job.""The offensive security feature is valuable because it publicly detects the offensive and vulnerable things present in our domain or applications. It checks any applications with public access. Some of the applications give public access to certain files or are present over a particular domain. It detects and lets us know with evidence. That is quite good. It is protecting our infrastructure quite well."

"The most valuable feature of Falcon Cloud Security is its comprehensive threat-hunting ability.""The most valuable feature of CrowdStrike Falcon Cloud Security is its lightweight sensor, taking minimal space and not impacting server performance.""The initial setup is easy .""Falcon is a cloud-based technology, so its resource usage is light. You deploy the agents to your endpoints, but the processing is done on the cloud, so you're CPU utilization is only about 2 percent. Some others solutions use between 30 to 60 percent.""There is a lot that it can do, but endpoint protection is the main thing about it. The fact that it uses machine learning and artificial intelligence to monitor and remediate the issues in real-time is probably the bread and butter of the product.""The immediate mitigation of potential threats and instant alerts are valuable.""The most significant benefit is how quickly malware and other malicious attacks are detected.""Cloud security posture management (CSPM) is most valuable."

More CrowdStrike Falcon Cloud Security Pros →

"The key benefit lies in having the largest and most up-to-date database. When it comes to using any Tenable product, it excels in finding vulnerabilities and providing analytics.""The solution’s vulnerability management feature has helped us identify and mitigate risks well.""The product's visibility and remediation work fine for me.""The tool alerts us on depreciating performance or deficiencies of our web application. It helps us react on time.""If you have multi-cloud tenancy using AWS and Azure, you can have a single dashboard where you can onboard all the cloud infrastructure and have visibility into it.""Ermetic can provide super visibility for our cloud environment (we are using AWS)."

Cons
"It does not bring much threat intel from the outside world. All it does is scan. If it can also correlate things, it will be better.""In some cases, the rules are strictly enforced but do not align with real-world use cases.""We repeatedly get alerts on the tool dashboard that we've already solved on our end, but they still appear. That is somewhat irritating.""There should be more documentation about the product.""In addition to the console alerts, I would like PingSafe to also send email notifications.""Currently, we would have to export our vulnerability report to an .xlsx file, and review it in an Excel spreadsheet, and then we sort of compile a list from there. It would be cool if there was a way to actually toggle multiple applications for review and then see those file paths on multiple users rather than only one user at a time or only one application at a time.""They can work on policies based on different compliance standards.""When we get a new finding from PingSafe, I wish we could get an alert in the console, so we can work on it before we see it in the report. It would be very useful for the team that is actively working on the PingSafe platform, so we can close the issue the same day before it appears in the daily report."

More SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security Cons →

"CrowdStrike Falcon Cloud Security is expensive.""It would be more convenient if there was an easier way to install CrowdStrike, perhaps through better integration with Active Directory.""Incorporating threat intelligence into the system would be a valuable addition.""The log scale or Humio side of it where it collects the data and expands into the XDR world still needs time to develop in terms of the way it combines the data and metadata that flows into the platform. I know they're working on it.""The only challenge lies in token verification.""The CrowdStrike dashboard currently lacks a username field.""One area for improvement in Falcon Cloud Security is the support portal.""The UI part needs to be improved."

More CrowdStrike Falcon Cloud Security Cons →

"The product must provide more features.""There is a need for the support team to improve their response time since it is one of the areas where the product's technical team has certain shortcomings.""If Tenable Cloud Security offers a complete Cnapp solution with CWP, CIEM, and Waap security, it will be able to compete with other competitors.""I didn't find anything that wasn't useful or needed to be added.""Ermetic needs to improve its security scanning. I would like to see more dynamic graphical forms.""I do think there might be room for more integrations. This could allow for further customization and flexibility, essentially offering different functionality options to accommodate various budgets."

    Overview

    Singularity Cloud Security is SentinelOne’s comprehensive, cloud-native application protection platform (CNAPP). It combines the best of agentless insights with AI-powered threat protection, to secure and protect your multi-cloud infrastructure, services, and containers from build time to runtime. SentinelOne’s CNAPP applies an attacker’s mindset to help security practitioners better prioritize their  remediation tasks with evidence-backed Verified Exploit Paths™. The efficient and scalable runtime protection, proven over 5 years and trusted by many of the world’s leading cloud enterprises, harnesses local, autonomous AI engines to detect and thwart runtime threats in real-time. CNAPP data and workload telemetry is recorded to SentinelOne’s unified security lake, for easy access and investigation.

    Singularity Cloud Security includes both agentless and AI-powered cloud security controls, which represent two halves of our strategy to keep public cloud and container environments safe. Radically reduce your cloud attack surface with Singularity Cloud Native Security, formerly PingSafe, with agentless insights and evidence-based prioritization; protect runtime compute and container with Singularity Cloud Workload Security, SentinelOne’s real-time CWPP, with AI-powered machine-speed blocking of threats.

    CrowdStrike Falcon Cloud Security is a platform of cloud security solutions aimed at protecting organizations from breaches while simplifying cloud security management. The unified platform combines several cloud security functionalities for comprehensive protection. Built on the CrowdStrike Falcon Platform, it leverages the powerful agent and technology used in CrowdStrike's renowned endpoint protection solutions, extending its capabilities seamlessly to cloud environments.

    CrowdStrike Falcon Cloud Security is designed to be a shield for the cloud infrastructure. One of its key strengths is its ability to monitor cloud workloads for potential breaches and attacks. It doesn't matter if you're running virtual machines, containers, or a combination of both across different cloud providers – Falcon Cloud Security offers visibility and protection. Additionally, it works tirelessly to pinpoint misconfigurations or vulnerabilities in your cloud setup, proactively stopping issues before they become full-blown security incidents. Compliance becomes easier too, as it can check if your deployments meet the requirements of various industry standards and regulations.

    If you heavily utilize containers and Kubernetes, Falcon Cloud Security has you covered. It delves deep into container images and running containers to spot weaknesses and potential threats, helping you secure your containerized applications from the moment they're developed to when they're up and running. Finally, it tackles the often messy world of permissions in the cloud. Falcon Cloud Security analyzes identities and their attached permissions, ensuring that the principle of least privilege is followed and sensitive data isn't exposed due to overly broad access rights.

    In essence, CrowdStrike Falcon Cloud Security aims to simplify the complexities of cloud security by consolidating tools, providing a centralized view of your risks and threats, and delivering advanced protection that blends seamlessly with your development processes.

    Based on the interviews we conducted with CrowdStrike Falcon Cloud Security users, overall, the sentiment is positive. Users praise the solution's efficacy in detecting and preventing threats, its ease of use, scalability, stability, and integration with existing systems. There were also mentions of areas for improvement, such as the pricing, the user interface, and customer support.
