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.

High availability and self-healing mechanisms ensure seamless production builds

The most useful feature of Mirantis Container Cloud for our container management is Kubernetes. It provides a cluster, high availability, and a self-healing mechanism. Its multi-cluster management capability enhances our operational efficiency as it is easy to use, and every deployment is from the CI/CD, which automatically builds and deploys without human interference, reducing our deployment time to a few seconds.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We can monitor each activity from our mobile devices, so there is complete visibility of our cloud traffic flows, with threat intelligence provided by Check Point."

"We like the ability to investigate, analyze, and generate reports."

"Dome9 wraps our FTP infrastructure with its network security configurations, and this also gives us the ability to monitor FTP activity."

"The audit feature is the most valuable for compliance reasons. It gives you a full view of the whole environment, no matter how many accounts you have in AWS or Azure. You have it all under one umbrella."

"I love the work involved in maintaining and scaling security services and configurations across multiple public clouds using this solution, versus using native native cloud security controls. It is so much better. The different cloud platforms all have their own way that they handle a lot of the stuff that Dome9 handles. Even within their platform, they are in a lot of disparate places, e.g., in AWS, there are five different tools. You have to jump between them to get the same information that you can just pull in automatically on Dome9, which is just one platform. We are using multiple platforms, so that makes it even more complicated and time consuming if you had to just rely on them to get all of your information. Whereas, it's all just summarized and put together on the Dome9 end."

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

"Checkpoint posture management gives you visibility across your entire cloud infrastructure, so it helps you with management, maintenance, and compliance. With visibility across all these cloud platforms, you can protect against compromised credentials or identity theft."

"The initial setup was straightforward."

More Check Point CloudGuard CNAPP pros

"It is a stable solution. It is nearly perfect. I would rate the stability a ten out of ten."

"If we compare legacy application support to Docker, it's a superior product."

"Docker is very helpful for taking the code from development and applying it to the end user."

"The most valuable aspect is the excellent support. In addition, the billing system is really easy to understand."

"Main products are portable."

"The initial setup was really easy and the deployment was fast and straightforward."

"The product's initial setup phase is simple."

"I think the volume binding is a really interesting feature."

More Mirantis Container Cloud pros

Cons

"The dashboard customization has room for improvement."

"Check Point tools need to improve the latency in the portal since they take a long time to load."

"The reporting dashboard responds slowly, which leads to late report compilation."

"Their service needs improvement."

"The software configurations theory is complicated, and without proper planning and a well-skilled technical team, it cannot perform its tasks properly."

"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 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 setup can be better. With every other Check Point product, the setup is scripted. You just approve versions, and then you are off. The setup for this solution is still very much manual. I would like to see that transition to more of a scripted setup."

More Check Point CloudGuard CNAPP cons

"The initial setup was quite complex."

"In my previous years, I have brainstormed about the development of Container software. I have recently shifted focus, but the knowledge gained from those were really helpful. In my experience, Containers have their own complexities and to implement them, open source information is crucial. A software with new features would be beneficial. I suggest to implement a flow-based approach for container sequences, similar to Google Cloud's machine learning. The current process of deploying containers involves too many steps, and a more streamlined method would be appreciated. I've even automated deployment using APIs. Overall, simplifying container management and deployment processes would be valuable."

"Mirantis Container Cloud needs to improve its documentation."

"Mirantis Container Cloud could improve in simplifying security and compliance management, particularly in vulnerability scanning and patching."

"An improvement would be automated testing."

"Areas for improvement are the privacy of container management and the documentation. In the next release, I would like to see best practices on how to manage distributed containers and networks."

"You need to have system knowledge to deploy the product. It should be improved."

"This solution is open-source and they need to focus on improving the Linux Operating Systems' GUI. It does not have a GUI making it not user-friendly. Additionally, the containers need to improve security and compliance."

More Mirantis Container Cloud cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The licensing part still needs some work. The issue that I have is that we do not use all the services in the cloud, but sometimes, CloudGuard identifies them as an asset."

"Check Point CloudGuard Posture Management is always known as a good solution but an expensive one. When you're using Cisco, Check Point, or Palo Alto, you know that you will pay more, but you know that it will work."

"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."

"The price is on the higher end."

"From a pricing perspective, they are pretty expensive."

"We have the enterprise-level license and we renew it annually because it is worth the cost."

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

"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."

More Check Point CloudGuard CNAPP pricing and cost advice

"The product is not expensive."

"The community edition does not require a license and is completely free."

"The solution is open-source and free to try."

"I rate the product price an eight on a scale of one to ten, where one means low price and ten means high price."

"This solution is free."

"It is more costly than other products, but it is worth every penny."

"Mirantis Container Cloud is free. However, there are features for which you need to pay."

"With open source, you can use Mirantis completely free."
