The Infrastructure as Code service available in PingSafe and the services available in AWS cloud security can be merged so that we can get the security data directly from AWS cloud in PingSafe.

Setup Cost

Contrast Security Assess offers scalable pricing based on application size and environment, ranging from $20,000 to $100,000 annually.
SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security offers flexible pricing, aligning with market standards, providing robust threat detection and response capabilities.
Licensing costs are fairly high compared to other DAST and SAST tools, but it seems to be worth the money.
Threat & Vulnerability Management Senior Analyst at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
With very little negotiation involved, we just let them know what we could pay and they were willing to meet us at slightly above what we paid with Sophos, which was still very fair for what we were looking at.
IT Support Specialist at a non-tech company with 201-500 employees
Its high cost may be prohibitive for small and medium-sized businesses.

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security provides real-time threat detection, automated response, and user-friendly management for enhanced security diagnostics and reporting.
The ability to see what is going on and what has been going on in a given application and basically get to see what is coming across it in real time is helpful in finding vulnerabilities to remediate before production deployments.
Threat & Vulnerability Management Senior Analyst at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
Instead of fixing each vulnerability reported independently, you can group them and fix them in a single point in the source code, resolving several vulnerabilities at once.
Management Of Quality Managers at a tech vendor with 1,001-5,000 employees
Contrast Security Assess has positively impacted my organization by improving the security features of our application.

Featured Reviews

Ryan Flake - PeerSpot reviewer
Threat & Vulnerability Management Senior Analyst at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
Real-time assessments have improved remediation speed and reduced time spent on authentication issues
I do find that here and there with Contrast Security Assess there are user interface issues, particularly with how they work with libraries. The way that it works is people have access to library data for all applications, not just the applications that they should have access to. However, they are trying to fix that. The way the libraries are handled with Contrast Security Assess could use some work. I know that there is an additional service tier that allows for more in-depth library data. These are small things. Contrast support has been great in fixing any issues or getting back to us with questions. They seem to really be dedicated to the product.

Advanced rollback and AI-driven insights have protected endpoints and simplified security operations
We can check multiple types of alerts and triggers, and we can analyze these. There are many types of functions such as Kill, Quarantine, and remediate rollback types of features, which we can use for client safety. The rollback feature is the best feature because it is only used in SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security. We have used multiple types of EDR, but the rollback feature is unique to SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security. When many types of attacks happen in an organization, the rollback feature deletes all types of malicious files and other malware-type files and completely cleans your system. This feature is very interesting according to me. SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security provides many types of features such as Kill and Quarantine, which are very interesting features for security operations. There are deep visibility features, and Purple AI is also one of the best features. It is easy for security operations and incident response. We can check log analysis with the help of deep visibility, and any types of attacks, malware, and phishing attacks are detected by SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security. Many types of security operations can be tracked and observed with the help of SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security. Purple AI is one of the interesting features in SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security. Deep visibility is one of the best features in SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security. You can find any types of logs and any types of devices through searching portals, similar to Google search. It gives you information regarding this. With deep visibility, you can search for any name. For example, we can search for any name and check what is happening with that person's laptops, what USB is connected or disconnected, and whether the network is connected or not. This is with the help of Purple AI.
