Find out what your peers are saying about Tenable, Wiz, Check Point Software Technologies and others in Vulnerability Management."It offers security insights and recommendations to assist organizations in acting and remediating issues swiftly."
"The two most valuable features for us are the central firewall administrator and the real-time cloud compliance monitoring."
"We have more visibility than ever before, appreciating the valuable and proactive insight that we receive from the platform."
"It presents great visibility of the traffic flow of our cloud, providing information on what data and users are circulating and in the event of a threat, it immediately identifies them by providing detailed and granular information from our entire environment."
"Dome9 continues to be a major piece of our cloud security architecture and has given our senior leadership team a high degree of confidence in our ability to protect our cloud environment."
"The most valuable feature is the single dashboard that enables us to manage the entire cloud environment from one place."
"The solution offers an excellent price, benefit, and installation relationship."
"The automatic learning and an AI engine help to find more modern vulnerability problems."
"One main feature we are very happy about is file security and upload functionality."
"Provides good vulnerability scanning, IPS, and geolocalization."
"I have recently been looking at the SSL certificate features and the learning mode of the appliance. This appliance learns from the pattern of SSL attacks."
"The most valuable features are support and security."
"It is a good product. We have just blocked everything coming from some geographical locations or certain countries, and it has been working very efficiently when I look at logs, events, and incidents generated from the system. It is generating very good analytic reports about it. This is the most valuable thing about this solution. It has load balancing and almost everything that a web application firewall needs. It is very flexible and easy to learn and configure. It can be easily learned and configured by using the information available on different channels such as YouTube."
"The GUI is user-friendly and it's easy to understand how to manage it."
"Also, if you serve files or you accept files with your server, Fortiweb has built-in antivirus. The Fortinet product family also provides good IP intelligence (botnet C&C, etc.)."
"Some of the threat detection analytics and the filtering capabilities they give us for filtering a certain type of information that we don't want coming into the site are its valuable features. The analytics are pretty good in terms of being able to see what threats have been detected and mitigated, where they're coming from, and things like that."
"I would like them to include support for their products in languages other than English."
"I am not a technical person, but generically, the user interface can be a little more intuitive. Our staff has trained network security and cloud security professionals, and they get it, but when you are trying to get to the customers to be able to pick it up and maintain it, it can be a bit difficult."
"The license cost is expensive and has room for improvement."
"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 technical support could be better, but I do not know of any other needed improvements."
"The user interface could be improved. Sometimes, the visibility is not immediately available for the environment. We have the native servers that come with the solutions, but we cannot see them in the Check Point log. Another issue is with the integrated file monitoring. It would make sense to have stuff like file integrity monitoring and malware scanning available within this module because we don't want to integrate another product."
"The entire system is complicated, and the setup process may not cater to the company's demands."
"I would like to see tighter integration with other compliance tools, like Chef Compliance, in addition to Inspector."
"The GUI could be better. It's limited."
"The Layer 7 DDoS attacks need improvement, it could be better."
"Centralized configuration using FortiManager – like what exists for NGFW FortiGate appliances - would improve the configuration."
"Most of the deployment is done by our development team because they have some parameters that match the configuration. However, when we initially did the deployment we used a consultant company."
"F5 and some other firewalls are easier to customize. FortiWeb could be more flexible and customizable. The documentation could also be improved because many of the advanced features aren't fully documented."
"I know that we have run into some issues with an SSL certificate and how it functions. Sometimes this breaks connectivity or just limits certain websites that are whitelisted."
"Fortinet FortiWeb could improve in reference architecture for different deployment scenarios."
"The solution could improve by being able to handle different use cases."
