Proactive threat insights have protected our brand and exposed hidden external attack paths
CloudSEK XVigil's best features include threat intelligence capabilities, malware logs, and information on credential breaches, along with identification of fake mobile apps that might expose our entities or claim to be authenticated as a Birlasoft application. The product also includes an SSL scanner, network scanner, and web application scanner, and is useful for safeguarding code-related repositories, especially if someone has created a GitHub repository and possibly forgot to secure it. Additional features that stand out are the social media discussion monitoring provided, keeping us informed about positive and negative happenings related to brand protection, as well as data leak protection monitoring and infrastructure threat-related protection. They offer deep and dark web monitoring, which is a huge benefit for us, making it a good product. CloudSEK XVigil has positively impacted our organization by providing good features. While investigating incidents, it delivers a brief summary of what is happening in a short term with the help of AI-enabled features. CloudSEK XVigil has great capabilities around the portal, and they help us significantly.

Has required additional context for alerts but supports monitoring impersonation and threat activity effectively
I do not rate Digital Shadows a nine or ten because there are many things that need improvement. The information we get is kind of generic. For instance, for impersonation, we don't have much detail on their history, when it was used or how it was misused. Those further details would be really helpful, but the information we receive is basic, such as when it was last registered and when it was updated, without more insight about the malicious factors. For basic support from Digital Shadows, my impression is that it is six to seven because many times we see duplications or bugs, and the quality of the alerts is not up to the mark. We have escalated many times, but we do not receive solid responses from them in terms of fixes. Digital Shadows should focus on the engineering side rather than the support aspect because support is there to help us get updates, but in terms of quick fixes, it is not as responsive. The need for improvement lies more with the engineering part in fixing issues, which is linked to support.

"The most effective feature for threat intelligence, in my opinion, is collecting impersonating websites."
"Digital Shadows helps our organization identify and mitigate cyber threats through their crawling of the internet, gathering information, pivoting it, and then sending those alerts to us which we monitor from our SIEM tool."
 

Cons

"CloudSEK XVigil can be improved by focusing more on vulnerabilities like open redirection, broken access control, and OWASP Top 10, which need to be enhanced and made more accurate."
"For basic support from Digital Shadows, my impression is that it is six to seven because many times we see duplications or bugs, and the quality of the alerts is not up to the mark."
"The solution doesn't pick up all the brands of the URLs."
"The solution doesn't pick up all the brands of the URLs. I have a relatively small company name, however, the solution still misses a certain number of URLs with my company's name in it that are impersonating websites. It's not very comprehensive, to be honest."
