"I will be honest, we have it, but in the last year, I didn't maintain the system until a month ago."
"The cost can be quite high, and it impacts scalability as more simulations require additional expenses."
"The way Cymulate works for EDR could be improved, as it drops payload and requires action from the EDR console for remediation, which can block the whole process of Cymulate execution."
"The tool's dashboard needs to load since it is not responsive and takes time to load."
