Find out what your peers are saying about Tenable, Wiz, SentinelOne and others in Vulnerability Management."Alerts of cloud activity happening across all accounts is helpful."
"This solution provides threat prevention and detection of anomalies automatically and investigates the activity of each one of them."
"Its monitoring and alerts are triggered by a failure or non-compliance with policies. It helps us to be able to act effectively and quickly."
"The most valuable feature is the single dashboard that enables us to manage the entire cloud environment from one place."
"This platform has allowed us to collect data from multiple sources, centralizing everything under a single source."
"The most valuable feature is the CloudBots for auto-remediation of security findings."
"Gives us centralized firewall management for both Windows and Linux distros. Also provides a clear view of the security configurations and connections across environments (DMZ, external and internal networks)."
"It presents a real-time database that is always updated."
"Provides dependable DNS monitoring of external devices."
"DNS protection, domain blocking, SIP component, and the Cisco Umbrella roaming client are the valuable features of Cisco Umbrella."
"Umbrella, being one pane for managing, being all-encompassing, allows us to quickly go in, make a change, and it applies to either every location, if we want it to, or we can have policies in place that only apply to certain users or certain computers."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is its reliability."
"It's very stable, reliable and does its job."
"Cisco's technical support is pretty good. When a solution is available, they will find it. On a scale from one to ten with ten being the best, I'd rate Cisco's technical support at nine."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to block users from reaching places that they should not even try to reach has been a boon."
"The user interface is great. It's very easy to tailor to our client's environment and needs."
"CloudGuard could be more customizable. It has built-in standards for things like GDPR compliance. But depending on your business lane, you might want to build your own controls based on your own standards."
"Automatic remediation requires read/write access. When providing read/write access to third-party applications, this can add risk. It should have some options of triggering API calls to the cloud platform, which in turn, can make the required changes."
"The rules are not well-tuned, and many of them generate false positives or nonsensical results."
"Integration could be improved."
"CloudGuard could be improved by including integration with vendors other than AWS, especially Azure, especially in permissions."
"I strongly advise that the multi-layered security system of Check Point often undergoes updates and new versions keep coming."
"The guidelines to implement or to link with the clouds are not complete."
"I would like to see tighter integration with other compliance tools, like Chef Compliance, in addition to Inspector."
"I'm hoping for the conversion of Cisco ZTNA's features from Duo to Umbrella."
"The locks and management could be better. The product is fairly new, and it may take some time to get all the features up and running."
"Cisco Umbrella is difficult to manage and needs to include a dashboard. It needs to improve pricing as well."
"iOS devices and mobiles are huge in my environment right now, and I cannot run them on Cisco Umbrella 24/7."
"Some countries don't have a DNS server leading to a domain resolution IP, not at a local level."
"I would like for their support to be faster."
"One of the issues with Umbrella is as you get into endpoint detection and response, such as EDR point solutions, some of them will not integrate well with Umbrella. Sometimes when you want to use technology, such as Always On VPN, it will not work. There are some looming issues as one type of technology starts to crossover with Umbrella. That is the challenge and Umbrella should find a way to be more compatible with some of the endpoint response solutions that are coming out on the market."
"There are some situations where we would like to block things for specific user groups. I know that Umbrella does that, but it's not that easy.... when you want a specific task for specific rules and policies for user groups, you have to go three levels down in the menu, and it's hard to find where you do that task."
