Sr Security Engineer at a tech vendor with 5,001-10,000 employees
Risk-based triage has transformed container security and now prioritizes high-impact threats
The best features Qualys TotalCloud offers currently include managing cloud infrastructure and container security while facing major challenges such as alert fatigue. Traditional vulnerability scanners flag hundreds of CVEs on short-lived Kubernetes containers, some of which have no internet exposure or are gone before we can even triage them. I leverage Qualys TotalCloud to move beyond static CVSS. I use it to implement runtime exposure, correlation risk reprioritization, and shift-left integration. This notifies developers to fix a base image upstream rather than patching live ephemeral instances. In my work with cloud and container security, the biggest operational hurdle was alert fatigue. I use Qualys to shift left from static CVSS severity to context-aware risk prioritization. I correlated raw vulnerability data with real-time risk factors such as public network exposure, active runtime execution, or overly permissive IAM roles. This allows us to immediately drop the priority of isolated containers and escalate lower-severity CVEs that sit on an exposed, high-risk path. We can map these findings directly back to our CI/CD pipelines so developers can patch the root base images upstream. We have drastically cut down the signal-to-noise ratio, saved a lot of manual hours doing triage work, and ensured engineering effort goes directly towards high-impact risk reduction.

Improved industrial asset visibility has transformed risk management and compliance monitoring
I think there are some areas of weaknesses in Claroty Platform. The pricing could improve, as some of the features require licensing tiers and therefore the pricing could be higher. Claroty Platform could benefit from simpler licensing and pricing structures. The executive dashboard can improve as well, and they can expand their third-party integration. Additionally, their predictive AI-driven recommendations can be improved. I think it does provide for very good behavior analysis through AI capabilities and risk prioritization, which is generally quite trustworthy. As the capability of AI enhances, I think it can provide for better risk recommendations. Claroty Platform can have a better and simpler licensing arrangement. Their third-party integrations can expand. They can have better executive dashboards and more AI-driven predictive risk recommendations. I would rate them an eight for these reasons. Dashboards, licensing, integrations, and AI-driven recommendations are areas for improvement. Probably one more to add is that they can have better and more enhanced automated remediation workflows.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"While automatic inventory detection upon connection is a helpful feature, a truly valuable capability would be assessing an environment's security posture against Azure and CIS best practices."
"The best feature would be the ability to create policies. It is easy to control and update policies as required."
"I would rate Qualys TotalCloud ten out of ten."
"In my opinion, this is the best tool."
"If someone were to ask me to review Qualys TotalCloud, I would summarize it as an end-to-end solution for cloud security with visibility and governance-grade controls without needing to manage multiple disconnected tools."
"I like the web API security and IoT scanning features the most. The user-friendly design of TotalCloud's interface enables customers to navigate it and use its full potential easily"
"Qualys TotalCloud is overall the best tool available in the market for scanning purposes."
"The scalability is good as well. I would rate it ten out of ten."
"Claroty identifies all vulnerabilities available in our environment."
"Our different execution team is there to handle it, but overall, the product is pretty easy to deploy and integrate with the existing system."
"After implementation of Claroty Platform, the visibility goes up to one hundred percent, which otherwise was probably in the range of 60 to 70 percent, and this really has a lot of business impact on security, compliance, and operations."
"Claroty is very beneficial for learning and adds value to your resume."
"The solution offers comprehensive tools that greatly enhance your IT operations if implemented correctly."
"The product helps mitigate potential threats, especially if its users have signature rules. The product also provides alerts."
"I believe the two main aspects where Claroty stands out are their ability to provide a complete platform and their OT-specific focus."
"Their SRA solution, the Secure Remote Access solution, is very useful for industrial environments."
"Their SOC is phenomenal in not monitoring and responding and taking action."
"On a scale from one to ten, I would rate the overall solution as a ten."
"On my end, the most valuable feature of this solution is that I can install it and forget about it. After that, their SOC team takes over and they only call me when there's a problem."
"I appreciate that there are people behind the scenes sorting out valuable alerts from those that are not, so I only get alerts when they are real."
"The solution also watches over Microsoft 365 and keeps a copy of logs."
"The solution is all encompassing and can incorporate email monitoring."
 

Cons

"There is room for improvement in vulnerability scanning, particularly for PaaS environments. Currently, Qualys does not have full access to these instances, which limits its effectiveness."
"The main area needing improvement is integration. Although the team is strengthening TotalCloud, integration can be enhanced with SIEM, SOAR, ITSM, and other sources."
"It has been working very well, but it would be helpful if the dashboard could generate reports tailored to specific compliance needs. For example, in India, we have to comply with RBI and SEBI guidelines. It w"
"Overall, we are satisfied with it. However, the response part of the Cloud Detection and Response (CDR) module can be improved. It is not yet in place according to requirements; it is not completely available even though the module has been released."
"There should be improvement from a dashboard perspective when collecting and showcasing data to lead management."
"Qualys TotalCloud needs to enhance its scanning capabilities in the IP domain, as it currently lacks the functionality to resolve IPs to their corresponding domain names."
"With the growing integration of AI, I would like Qualys to enhance its service offerings to better accommodate AI-related risks."
"The areas in the solution that have room for improvement include the UI/UX design, which should be improved, and they should integrate more artificial intelligence into the product."
"The product's integration capabilities are an area of concern where improvements are required."
"There is room for improvement in the user interface to make it more vibrant and interactive, similar to IT tools. Improvements could also be made in the Secure Remote Access (SRA) user interaction and graphical representations of recordings."
"Claroty Platform only gives the vulnerabilities based on the make and model of the devices, so it doesn't provide any resolution or any detailed explanation of how one can resolve such issues."
"There should be AI security solutions implemented."
"The pricing could improve, as some of the features require licensing tiers and therefore the pricing could be higher."
"For improvement, I think the training could be more practical. We have external training, but they're mostly theoretical. I want the solution to provide hands-on lab experience to help users learn better."
"Pricing could be improved."
"The graphical user interface is quite poor."
"The feature we keep asking for is a vulnerability scan."
"The interface could be more intuitive. More transparency is needed in the interface as a lot of details are hidden behind the scenes, making them difficult or impossible to access."
"Some texts seem to report items as normal too quickly."
"The interface could be more intuitive."
"While I am very satisfied with the service, supporting additional platforms, particularly Linux support, would be a beneficial improvement."
"The solution does not tie into other EDR products like CyberArk or CrowdStrike but that might be more useful."
