VP - Information Technology at a financial services firm with 201-500 employees

Tells us about vulnerabilities as well as their impact and helps to focus on real issues

Looking at all the different pieces, it has got everything we need. Some of the pieces we do not even use. For example, we do not have Kubernetes Security. We are not running any K8 clusters, so it is good for us. Overall, we find the solution to be fantastic. There can be additional education components. This may not be truly fair to them because of what the product is going for, but it would be great to see additional education for compliance. It is not a criticism of the tool per se, but anything to help non-development resources understand some of the complexities of the cloud is always appreciated. Any additional educational resources are always helpful for security teams, especially those without a development background.

Multi-cloud, good scanning, and offers extensive guides

The challenge is that they charge you per resource. We had an issue where Google Cloud was generating secrets for our application configurations by the hundreds, which we would be charged by Bridgecloud. Our price would have surged to an insane amount due to the automatically generated secrets that we don't even use for anything, which isn't part of our security concern. What we would like to know is if there is a way that we could exclude those from our resources so that we're not billed for that. We don't monitor that. They ignored me for a month through four emails asking about that. They were just totally unresponsive. Then after a month, I said, "I guess you don't want our business." And they responded, "Oh, we're sorry to hear that." I'd say "You're sorry to hear that? Why didn't you respond to any of my emails?" If you're trying to pay them less money, then they want to get rid of you. They don't want to talk to you. That's what it came across as. It's not like we weren't looking at spending thousands of dollars a month with them. We just weren't looking at spending $8,000 versus $2,000. That was a bit frustrating. Generally, I do like their product. It's a useful product. It's good. We wanted to use it. However, since they blew us off, it left a bad taste in our mouths. Their sales team needs a little bit of a jostle to get themselves together. We'd like to see better monitoring and the ability to deny certain resources from being scanned.

Evolved cloud security with active monitoring but needs interface consistency

The user interface needs work. Sometimes, it is a transition from the old tool to the new CNAPP Two that I currently have, and remnants of the old environment can still be detected. I require consistency in the user interface to ensure everything is streamlined into the same look and feel. More work is needed in fine-tuning the threat data towards your CSPM and activity logs, aligning them with business intelligence, which requires a cohesive console interface. My assessment of CloudGuard CDRs in intrusion detection and threat hunting capabilities is that it still needs some work. All the threat data that comes in, you need to fine tune it a bit.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The cloud misconfiguration feature and Offensive Security Engine, as well as their alerting process, are valuable."

"SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security's graph explorer is a valuable tool that lets us visualize all connected services."

"Cloud Native Security's best feature is its ability to identify hard-coded secrets during pull request reviews."

"SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security offers valuable scalability suitable for organizations of all sizes, from small businesses to large enterprises."

"The agentless vulnerability scanning is great."

"Cloud Native Security's most valuable features include cloud misconfiguration detection and remediation, compliance monitoring, a robust authentication security engine, and cloud threat detection and response capabilities."

"The SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security has substantially affected my risk posture, as it was the first tool that notified me of the public exposure of a repository by a developer, allowing me to resolve the issue within minutes."

"SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security has improved our security posture."

More SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security pros

"In cases where they have automatic remediations, you can click a button and it'll just fix the configuration for you."

"New users don't have too many problems with the product. They have a lot of training documentation around it."

"This solution provides threat prevention and detection of anomalies automatically and investigates the activity of each one of them."

"The posture management and remediation features are the most valuable. We use GSL Builder to build custom rules in alignment with our organization's policies. CloudGuard has canned rules using multiple standard frameworks, but we also have additional rules."

"Dome9 has improved our organization; we have a centralized view of all of our assets, our visible assets our ECs, our inventories. And then all the policies are centralized, and it is easier to manage because everything is one component console."

"The feature that I find most valuable is the blocking feature."

"The dashboard is intuitive. You know if you're compliant or not, and then it gives you a remediation plan."

"The CloudGuard for Cloud Intelligence tool has several significant features that provide security to our company."

"The CDR helps detect anomalous behavior and respond to threats before they become an issue."

"CloudGuard's best feature is real-time detection. We can detect incidents and vulnerabilities in our code with one click."

More Check Point CloudGuard CNAPP pros

Cons

"Whenever I view the processes and the process aspect, it takes a long time to load."

"They can work on policies based on different compliance standards."

"They could generally give us better comprehensive rules."

"There's an array of upcoming versions with numerous features to be incorporated into the roadmap. Customers particularly appreciate the service's emphasis on intensive security, especially the secret scanning aspect. During the proof of concept (POC) phase, the system is required to gather logs from the customer's environment. This process entails obtaining specific permissions, especially in terms of gateway access. While most permissions for POC are manageable, the need for various permissions may need improvement, especially in the context of security."

"One potential drawback is the cost of SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security, which may be prohibitive for smaller businesses or startups, particularly those in regions with lower average incomes, such as India."

"For vulnerabilities, they are showing CVE ID. The naming convention should be better so that it indicates the container where a vulnerability is present. Currently, they are only showing CVE ID, but the same CVE ID might be present in multiple containers. We would like to have the container name so that we can easily fix the issue."

"here is a bit of a learning curve. However, you only need two to three days to identify options and get accustomed."

"One of our use cases was setting up a firewall for our endpoints, specifically for our remote users... We were hoping to utilize SentinelOne's firewall capabilities, but there were limitations on how many URLs we could implement. Because of those limitations on the number of URLs, we weren't able to utilize that feature in the way we had hoped to."

More SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security cons

"We'd like to see better monitoring and the ability to deny certain resources from being scanned."

"The biggest issue that I see companies run into is that they immediately think that, "Oh, this solution will be right, simply due to the name." But that's the same issue Splunk runs into. People will immediately jump to Splunk being the best SIEM tool, just because they're the largest. When in reality, QRadar, LogRhythm, and all these other ones are performing similar functions and would actually fit better in some people's environments. Therefore, it's important a company does its homework and does not assume one size fits all."

"We're looking for a solution that can incorporate legacy infrastructure for some of our business needs."

"CloudGuard CNAPP could be enhanced by increasing the number of components that run natively on Azure."

"Automation and advanced threat prevention have room for improvement."

"The biggest thing is the documentation aspect of Dome9 is a little lacking. They were purchased by Check Point about a year and a half to two years ago. When they integrated into Check Point's support system, a lot of the documentation that they had previously got mangled in the transition, e.g., linking to stuff on the Dome9 website that no longer exists. There are still a lot of spaces with incomplete links and stuff that is not as fully explained as it could be."

"The rules are not well-tuned, and many of them generate false positives or nonsensical results."

"The user interface needs work. Sometimes, it is a transition from the old tool to the new CNAPP Two that I currently have, and remnants of the old environment can still be detected."

"The Check Point solution is somewhat expensive."

"I strongly advise that the multi-layered security system of Check Point often undergoes updates and new versions keep coming."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"While SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security offers robust protection, its high cost may be prohibitive for small and medium-sized businesses."

"SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security is costly."

"SentinelOne is quite costly compared to other security platforms."

"For pricing, it currently seems to be in line with market rates."

"Singularity Cloud Security by SentinelOne is cost-efficient."

"SentinelOne is relatively cheap. If ten is the most expensive, I would rate it a seven."

"Singularity Cloud Workload Security's pricing is good."

"SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security is on the costlier side."

More SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security pricing and cost advice

Information not available

"In the beginning, the price of Dome9 was cheap, whereas now it is not."

"The price is on the higher end."

"The licensing and costs are straightforward, as they have a baseline of 100 workloads (number of instances) within one license with no additional nor hidden charges. If you want to have 200 workloads under Dome9, then you need to take out two licenses for that. Also, it does not have any impact on cloud billing, as data is shared using the API call. This is well within the limit of free API calls provided by the cloud provider."

"It is difficult to contextualize the pricing because we are used to Indian pricing and licensing."

"I suggest that you pay attention to the product pricing because while there are no tricks, and the licensing model is transparent, the final numbers may surprise you."

"CloudGuard is fairly priced."

"The solution’s pricing is a little bit high."

"The tool's pricing is moderate. Its licensing costs are yearly."
