Sreeraj Mohandas - PeerSpot reviewer
Security Engineer at HashXpert
Consolidated cloud security has reduced manual work and has automated vulnerability remediation
I elaborate on my rating of SentinelOne support by mentioning that there was some time where the troubleshooting took a longer time. In fact, there were many meetings going on. The availability of the document on the internet is on a lesser side because as an engineer, I would want to know about the troubleshooting aspects of this particular tool. When I am facing a customer, I do not prefer to bring the vendor to every call and try to resolve it, as it takes months and months. It would be better to have a training session with the engineer on site to explain and train properly. This is not the case with SentinelOne, so this is the only thing I have a complaint about. I do not have any other room for improvement to suggest within SentinelOne itself. However, I would really want the AI assistant for the threat hunting part to be more accessible. They have it, but they are making it licensed, so it is a bit on the higher end.

Provides centralized visibility and real-time threat detection across multiple cloud accounts
Regarding how CrowdStrike Falcon Cloud Security can be improved, I would say they can improve their support. There were a couple of cases where we needed to escalate issues in order to get proper support. That part could use some tweaking on their end. Additionally, the recent incident during the last summer literally impacted our systems. We had some of our workloads that affected the business, and it was a difficult experience. Apart from that, it is a good tool and the experience with CrowdStrike Falcon Cloud Security has been excellent. We did not find any kind of issues, but if they could improve their response to security-related incidents and provide on-time support or better understand our concerns and address them accordingly, it could be very helpful. Regarding needed improvements, I think they should enhance automatic alerting with CI/CD scanning and reporting capabilities. Additionally, it would be better to implement Falcon sensor health monitoring so agents are always active. We could know how it is behaving and how it is treating our environment. That could be a little helpful.

Head of Security at SundaySky
Prioritized cloud risks have transformed our small team and focus now shifts to weaponizable threats
The best features Skyhawk Security offers are the ability to prioritize your work, especially when you have limited staff, and ensure that you address the most important issues first and with urgency. A security team is usually very thin-spread and doesn't have a lot of resources to solve issues. Skyhawk allows me to prioritize those based on the actual probability of a vulnerability being exploited. Skyhawk Security helps me prioritize through the dashboards. They have a dashboard that shows me the amount of vulnerabilities that I have. From those vulnerabilities, it lists out the ones that are exploitable. From the ones that are exploitable, it shows me the ones that are weaponizable and how they are weaponizable. From there, it shows me the ones that are weaponizable and have the ability to impact my Crown Jewels. Skyhawk Security has positively impacted my organization because we are a small security team, and Skyhawk Security allows us to prioritize our work. We are better at what we do, and it doesn't take more people to do more important work. With the limited staff that we have, we are able to address the things that pose the highest risk to us first, rather than take all the critical vulnerabilities and address them one by one without any type of prioritization. Our outcomes since using Skyhawk Security changed because we went down from thousands of vulnerabilities that we needed to review and address to a prioritized list that includes a handful of vulnerabilities that we needed to fix because they were the most urgent. We then have a work plan to address all the others. From a focus perspective, it improved the focus of my team, and it improved the efficiency and effectiveness of my team because we are now addressing the most urgent issues first.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable features of SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security are cloud misconfiguration, Kubernetes, and IaC scanning."
"The UI is responsive and user-friendly."
"I did a lot of research before signing up and doing the demo. They have a good reputation as far as catching threats early on."
"Singularity Cloud Security offers autonomous response capabilities, automatically remediating threats and restoring affected files without manual intervention."
"The visibility SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security provides into the Cloud environment is a valuable feature."
"You not only get to know about vulnerabilities and misconfigurations but also some of the actual"
"The best features we value in SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security include compliance monitoring features, as we are a frequently audited company. They provide reports with compliance scores, showing how well we meet certain regulatory standards, such as HIPAA, and we can show our compliance as a percentage."
"I like CSPM the most. It captures a lot of alerts within a short period of time. When an alert gets triggered on the cloud, it throws an alert within half an hour, which is very reasonable. It is a plus point for us."
"The product's initial setup phase is easy."
"The most valuable features of CrowdStrike Falcon include its automation capabilities, efficacy, and lower risk."
"The RTR feature stands out as particularly valuable to me due to its capability to log into machines."
"The initial setup is easy ."
"The threat intelligence is the most vital feature"
"Cloud security is one valuable feature. Spotlight is the other one. There is also vulnerability management and a couple of more features."
"Falcon is a cloud-based technology, so its resource usage is light. You deploy the agents to your endpoints, but the processing is done on the cloud, so you're CPU utilization is only about 2 percent. Some others solutions use between 30 to 60 percent."
"CrowdStrike Falcon Cloud Security has nearly saved us some amount, though I am not exactly sure of the numbers since the sales team handles the financial side; what we have gained from CrowdStrike Falcon Cloud Security is that EC2 downtime has been prevented and time has been saved considerably, around eight to ten hours per week through automatic onboarding and centralized visibility."
"It helps us in reaching the ISO27001 certification."
"The initial setup process is easy and intuitive."
"Skyhawk Security has plenty of products and subscriptions available, and at this moment, Skyhawk Security appears to be the leading company in the cybersecurity area."
"Skyhawk Security has positively impacted my organization because we are a small security team, and Skyhawk Security allows us to prioritize our work."
"We fell in love at the first sight."
 

Cons

"The main area for improvement I want to see is for the platform to become less resource-intensive. Right now, it can slow down processes on the machine, and it would be a massive improvement if it were more lightweight than it currently is."
"In the Analytics section, there is a tab for showing the severity of open issues by day. There are three options: by week, by month, and for more than thirty days. However, despite being aware of many issues open for more than thirty days, it shows no data available."
"For SentinelOne, improvements could be made in managing Internet dependency as cloud-based operations can pose challenges in environments with limited connectivity."
"There can be a specific type of alert showing that a new type of risk has been identified."
"The could improve their mean time to detect."
"It would be really helpful if the solution improves its agent deployment process."
"We can customize security policies but lack auditing capabilities."
"Scanning capabilities should be added for the dark web."
"The user interface needs improvement as it's sometimes difficult to locate specific dashboards or reports."
"I think the UI could be improved, but the technical support said CrowdStrike will improve the UI in the near future. But right now, it’s so messy."
"The improvements needed for CrowdStrike Falcon Cloud Security include reducing its high cost, which is currently quite expensive, and enhancing the executive reports that are user-friendly for technical engineers but require improvement for higher management."
"The recent incident during the last summer literally impacted our systems; we had some of our workloads that affected the business, and it was a difficult experience."
"The recent incident during the last summer literally impacted our systems. We had some of our workloads that affected the business, and it was a difficult experience."
"I would not say the tool's integration capabilities were straightforward because the complexity depends on the volume of the data."
"One area for improvement in Falcon Cloud Security is the support portal."
"It would be more convenient if there was an easier way to install CrowdStrike, perhaps through better integration with Active Directory."
"The solution needs automatic testing."
"Skyhawk Security can be improved mainly by improving the UI so it is a little bit easier to use, and the speed that it takes pages to load are the main downfalls."
"The platform’s interface needs enhancement."
"The solution needs automatic testing."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The tool is cost-effective."
"It's a fair price for what you get. We are happy with the price as it stands."
"The pricing tends to be high."
"It's not cheap, but it is worth the price."
"PingSafe's pricing is good because it provides us with a solution."
"For pricing, it currently seems to be in line with market rates."
"Pricing is based on modules, which was ideal for us."
"While SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security offers robust protection, its high cost may be prohibitive for small and medium-sized businesses."
"CrowdStrike Falcon Cloud Security is pricy."
"The pricing is fair for what you get. I'd rate them a solid nine out of ten in terms of pricing."
"It's an expensive package but does what it says it will do."
"Its price is moderate."
"CrowdStrike Falcon Cloud Security is very expensive for us. Last month, we had a big issue that took much time and money to resolve. It slowed down our business and required our management team to get involved. We had a problem similar to the "Blue Screen of Death" issue many US companies faced. This incident used up many of our IT resources in just a few months. That's why we're looking for a replacement tool now."
"CrowdStrike Falcon is very expensive."
"It is expensive, but it adds value."
"It's an expensive product"
