Chetan Yelve - PeerSpot reviewer
Enhancing workflow with automation and comprehensive security monitoring
Since I have been using it, I have seen many improvements. SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security is an excellent CSSPM tool, but the CSC CWPP features need improvement. There is scope for more application security posture management features and other than that, there are not many ASPM solutions on the market, and existing ones are more costly. I would prefer to see SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security develop into a single pane of glass for ASPM and CSPM, and I would also appreciate runtime protection highlighted immediately if I'm changing anything in my environment. The dashboard needs more widgets added so that customers or users can see everything on the dashboard itself without needing to go too deep.

A robust and cost-effective solution, excelling in scalability, on-premises support, and responsive technical support, making it well-suited for enterprises navigating stringent regulatory environment
The most crucial aspect is runtime protection, specifically image scanning before preproduction and deployment. Customers find it invaluable to have the ability to check for vulnerabilities in an image before deployment, similar to a sandbox environment. This feature ensures that customers can identify any potential issues with the image, such as misconfigurations or vulnerabilities, before integrating it into their workloads and infrastructure. In their source pipeline, companies can identify issues before deploying changes. This is crucial because customers prefer resolving any problems or misconfigurations before the deployment process. Software change security, including GSPM Cloud, is a key feature customers seek in their infrastructure.

Real-time insights have reduced false positives and improved cross-team collaboration
I find the UX/UI to be comfortable. The insights that it brings us are related to the business logic of our company, which is important. If something is flagged as a critical alert, this indicates that it must be observed closely. We have used the real-time monitoring feature of Sweet Security, and this specific solution has given us real detection that helps us find what is actually important against what is not important. It saves us a lot of investigation time that isn't required anymore. It's a very good product, I'm happy we have it. We looked into the CPU consumption and it's the lowest against the benchmark. The time savings from Sweet Security have varied, but the impact has been significant. It has reduced the need for back-and-forth discussions between teams such as Security, DevOps, and R&D. It only flags the important and critical risks. It saves developers time from looking into fixes for false positives. We use the customizable dashboards in Sweet Security. These dashboards have helped in managing our security posture by presenting all the relevant information that the security team needs to see. The correlation between the information is very efficient. They made a lot of improvements to this over the last year. It's a lot better now than it was a year ago. The insights are good. The reporting is very good because we can customize it to what we actually want to see. The value of having real-time visibility in our cloud environment with Sweet Security changes everything because it differentiates between identifying and reacting to something that is not really a risk and something that is truly a risk that needs to be treated. Sweet Security has had a big impact on mitigating risks and aiding development.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"It gives me the information I need."
"SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security has significantly improved our risk posture."
"We've seen a reduction in resources devoted to vulnerability monitoring. Before SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security we spent a lot of time monitoring and fixing these issues. SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security enabled us to divert more resources to the production environment."
"Our previous product took a lot of man hours to manage. Once we got Singularity Cloud Workload Security, it freed up our time to work on other tasks."
"SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security released a new security graph tool that helps us identify the root issue. Other tools give you a pass/fail type of profile on all misconfigurations, and those will run into the thousands. SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security's graphing algorithm connects various components together and tries to identify what is severe and what is not. It can correlate various vulnerabilities and datasets to test them on the back end to pinpoint the real issue."
"You not only get to know about vulnerabilities and misconfigurations but also some of the actual"
"SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security offers an intuitive user interface that lets us navigate quickly and easily."
"It is scalable, stable, and can detect any threat on a machine. It uses artificial intelligence and can lock down any virus."
"Customers find it invaluable to have the ability to check for vulnerabilities in an image before deployment, similar to a sandbox environment."
"Valuable features include the ability to connect it to our Docker Hub where our images are stored, good integration with Slack, and the connection to the CV, to easily see which CVs are on each image."
"The most valuable feature is the security."
"From what I understand, the initial setup is simple."
"The most helpful feature of Aqua Security is Drift Prevention, which is a feature that allows images to be immutable. In addition, one of the main reasons we went with Aqua Security is because it provides strong protection when it comes to runtime security."
"Aqua Security helps us to check the vulnerability of image assurance and check for malware."
"The most valuable feature of Aqua Security is the scanner."
"We use Aqua Security for the container security features."
"The value of having real-time visibility in our cloud environment with Sweet Security changes everything because it differentiates between identifying and reacting to something that is not really a risk and something that is truly a risk that needs to be treated."
"Before we had Sweet Security, upon any type of detection of activity, we needed to conduct lots of investigations in different platforms and logs until we could build the larger picture, but once we inserted Sweet Security, we are able to actually see each and every request being made from the application level towards the infrastructure, making it much easier and reducing the time for an analyst to understand what's really happening."
"The value we see from having real-time visibility into our cloud environment is significant, as Sweet Security serves as our eyes and ears inside AWS, telling us what we are doing wrong so we can fix it."
 

Cons

"I want SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security to integrate additional third-party resources. For example, SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security is compatible with Azure and AWS, but Azure AD isn't integrated with AWS. If SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security had that ability, it would enrich the data because how users interact with our AWS environment is crucial. All the identity-related features require improvement."
"The main area for improvement I want to see is for the platform to become less resource-intensive. Right now, it can slow down processes on the machine, and it would be a massive improvement if it were more lightweight than it currently is."
"SentinelOne currently lacks a break glass account feature, which is critical for implementing Single Sign-On."
"SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security has limited legacy system support and may not fully support older operating systems or legacy environments."
"The Infrastructure as Code service available in SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security and the services available in AWS cloud security can be merged so that we can get the security data directly from AWS cloud in SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security. This way, all the data related to security will be in one single place. Currently, we have to check a couple of things on SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security, and we have to validate that same data on the AWS Cloud to be sure. If they can collaborate like that, it will be great."
"The documentation could be better."
"The areas with room for improvement include the cost, which is higher compared to other security platforms. The dashboard can also be laggy."
"If something happens in our infrastructure, the alert appears on the dashboard, but I have to log in to the dashboard and refresh it. I would prefer it to provide better alerting and notifications so that I can resolve issues on priority."
"I would like Aqua Security to look into is the development of a web security portal."
"Aqua Security could provide more open documentation so that their learning resources can be more easily accessed and searched through online. Right now, a lot of the documentation is closed and not available to the public."
"Aqua Security could improve the forwarding of logging into Splunk and into other tools, it should be easier."
"Sometimes I got stressed with the UI."
"They want to release improvements to their product to work with other servers because now there are more focused on the Kubernetes environment. They need to improve the normal servers. I would like to have more options."
"Aqua Security lacks a lot in reporting."
"Since we are working from home, we would like to have the proper training for Aqua."
"The user interface could be improved, especially in terms of organization and clarity."
"There was something a year ago that caused a production issue in my company, but they fixed it within an hour."
"The option to run specific playbooks through Sweet Security platform would help us a lot, but these must be fully customizable."
"One area for improvement could be the alerts, as we have an issue with the alert time, the time it takes for the system to send the alert, but besides that, there is nothing special."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It was reasonable pricing for me."
"The cost for PingSafe is average when compared to other CSPM tools."
"I wasn't sure what to expect from the pricing, but I was pleasantly surprised to find that it was a little less than I thought."
"As a partner, we receive a discount on the licenses."
"The licensing is easy to understand and implement, with some flexibility to accommodate dynamic environments."
"While I'm slightly out of touch with pricing, I know SentinelOne is much cheaper than other products."
"Pricing is based on modules, which was ideal for us."
"It is a little expensive. I would rate it a four out of ten for pricing."
"Aqua Security is not cheap, and it's not very expensive, such as Splunk, they are in the middle."
"It comes at a reasonable cost."
"The pricing of this solution could be improved."
"They were reasonable with their pricing. They were pretty down-to-earth about the way they pitched their product and the way they tried to close the deal. They were one of the rare companies that approached the whole valuation in a way that made sense for our company, for our needs, and for their own requirements as well... They will accommodate your needs if they are able to understand them and they're stated clearly."
"Dealing with licensing costs isn't my responsibility, but I know that the licenses don't depend on the number of users, but instead are priced according to your workload."
