Platform requires compliance expertise and struggles with control accuracy

Drata helped us manage our SOC 2 compliance by automating the monitoring of our infrastructure, but overall, the platform didn't work effectively at all. Being fairly new SOC 2 compliance, understanding how the platform worked was really difficult to use. In particular, their UI shows many false positives, indicating that requirements are taken care of even when they're not. This makes it really difficult to manage and understand where we were in the process without being a compliance expert myself. A specific example of when the UI gave us a false positive is that there were several controls within the Drata platform that were completely monitored, such as ensuring that our databases are encrypted at rest. However, there are other controls that are a combination of monitored controls and manual evidence required, and they don't show that secondary requirement at all, even though it's what an actual auditor would require. Using Drata to understand the full scope of what we needed to accomplish and what we needed to provide evidence on was unsuccessful. I went back and forth between the auditor a dozen times and talked to the Drata team multiple times about trying to sort that out to ensure I actually had a punch list of things to do so that they understood the scope of what we needed, but couldn't get there. We eventually tried to cancel the subscription, but they refused, despite the platform not providing the value they promised. We attempted to get their Slack integration working so that we would be notified in real-time of any monitoring issues that were out of compliance, but ultimately, we couldn't get that to work. Drata has impacted our organization negatively, as it made the whole compliance process more complicated and cost me significant time. The complications with Drata extended the entire process by about six months and cost me probably 10 hours a week while we were still trying to get Drata to work, totaling about 40 hours of my time. I think Drata could be improved by changing it so that it reports the actual status of the controls and are more proactive about helping organizations at our stage of business get to compliance.

Enables us to prioritize and effectively address critical security issues

Evidence-based reporting helps us to prioritize and solve critical security issues. The new visualization feature demonstrates how an attacker can enter the system, highlighting the potential path that can be exploited and outlining all the steps the attacker could take. With that visibility, we can ensure the perimeter is strong and attackers cannot enter, thus reducing the risk. It has helped us prioritize issues. The visibility into how an attack could happen is valuable. For example, it highlights the system vulnerability and outlines where an attack could propagate. The visualization helps me to prioritize remediation, and if I don't know where to start, I can check to see the score that enables me to prioritize issues. I am using infrastructure-as-code scanning, and it's one of the useful features. In pre-production, it identifies embedded secrets and misconfigurations, including issues with Kubernetes or some privileged containers. This feature allows us to pass the audit and secure IaC code so that it isn't easily exploitable by attackers. We can more proactively work to identify and resolve vulnerabilities by using the dashboard and the alerting system that SentinelOne provides. It helps us with audits and compliance. We can show the compliance in percentage. We can confidently say that our company or infrastructure is very secure. It has improved our security posture by 30% to 35%. It has reduced our false positives by 30%. It has helped teams collaborate better. The security team manages SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security, and when it flags vulnerabilities, they are forwarded to DevOps for remediation. Previously, we needed to identify and report the issues, but there would be lapses in communication. Now, there is a centralized dashboard that anyone can look at and see the open issues and work on them.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The product is 100 percent friendly to use."

"Drata keeps adding new features, allowing us to build our entire InfoSec program within it. Adding new components and evidence for different audits is easy. Drata also integrates with various software, like ticketing systems, source code control, and cloud platforms, continuously pulling evidence from these integrations. Without a GRC tool with these integrations, we used to gather evidence from different software during audits manually. Drata has a significant impact on our security posture management. Previously, Drata had features for security posture management, primarily through integration with AWS. For example, it would scan AWS for specific security requirements, like ensuring all S3 buckets are private. It will be reported on the Drata platform if it finds a public bucket. Recently, Drata introduced a new feature that uses an infrastructure-as-code approach. This feature detects issues and provides AI-generated suggestions for fixing them. If an organization uses infrastructure-as-code solutions like Terraform, Drata will suggest changes to the Terraform code to address the issues. You can then review and apply these changes to fix the problems. This is particularly useful when dealing with many topics, as it helps automate and speed up the process of implementing fixes. However, this AI-generated code feature is part of Drata’s upsell options. The basic version of Drata offers limited capabilities compared to the advanced features available with a paid upgrade. Even without this new feature, Drata's security posture management is valuable, as it scans cloud environments for deviations from defined security baselines. Many tools offer similar capabilities, but Drata’s new feature that translates issues into actionable fixes is a notable advancement. This benefits teams with the capability and resources to use this tool effectively."

"The way the tool's controls are linked to the framework, specifically with SAST and HIPAA frameworks or any other frameworks, is really good."

"My experience with customer support was good; they were responsive, but they didn't ever get us to a solution that worked."

"Drata offers APIs for every clause so that it can integrate into various platforms."

"Drata helped us publish our ISO and SOC reports, which was essential for the acquisition. The challenge now is whether Drata can scale up to meet the needs of a larger company, which already has tools like Intune to enforce laptop encryption. Drata is excellent for startups and small—to medium-sized companies but may face challenges in larger organizations with multiple environments."

"Drata helps eliminate evidence gathering and makes assigning different activities to different team members easier, simplifying compliance and audit processes. In Pennsylvania, we're putting in thousands of hours. Drata improves our security posture by reducing extra work, allowing us to focus on other security directives. I like the control editing and task management features the most. It's easy to use, but it's also easy for people to think they don't need security experts if they have it."

"We use the infrastructure as code scanning, which is good."

"It is fairly simple. Anybody can use it."

"Cloud Native Security is a tool that has good monitoring features."

"We noted immediate benefits from using the solution."

"We liked the search bar in SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security. It is a global search. We were able to get some insights from there."

"I would rate SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security a nine out of ten."

"It's positively affected the communication between cloud security, application developers, and AppSec teams."

"Singularity Cloud Security's most valuable features are its ease of scalability and comprehensive security measures."

Cons

"The solution is quite costly."

"The product can improve in its API documentation area."

"In terms of improvements, I'd suggest better marketing since the industry tends to market these tools as security experts, which isn't true."

"One of the challenges with Drata is that if you're paying for a subscription to ISO 27001, you must undergo a risk assessment. You should have access to all necessary modules on the platform to achieve your compliance posture and certification."

"The thing with Drata is you cannot open multiple tabs on the same interface or the same desktop,"

"The existing features of Drata are already extensive and costly to integrate."

"There is room for improvement in Drata. The core features are solid, but some new features are in a very MVP (Minimum Viable Product) stage. They work, but the user experience isn't always smooth. While the core features are well-developed compared to the market, the new features need more polish. They could benefit from more user feedback and iterations to make them more useful. Some of these new features look promising buthave flaws, so we can’t fully adopt them or justify paying extra for them now. The user interface is clean and intuitive. However, you'll need some specific knowledge if you're a security policy manager or need to set updifferent integrations."

"Drata has impacted our organization negatively, as it made the whole compliance process more complicated and cost me significant time."

"In addition to our telecom and Slack channels, it would be helpful to receive Cloud Native Security security notifications in Microsoft Teams."

"I would prefer to see SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security develop into a single pane of glass for ASPM and CSPM."

"In some cases, the rules are strictly enforced but do not align with real-world use cases."

"We are getting reports only in a predefined form. I would like to have customized reports so that I can see how many issues are open or closed today or in two weeks."

"The Infrastructure as Code service available in SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security and the services available in AWS cloud security can be merged so that we can get the security data directly from AWS cloud in SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security. This way, all the data related to security will be in one single place. Currently, we have to check a couple of things on SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security, and we have to validate that same data on the AWS Cloud to be sure. If they can collaborate like that, it will be great."

"In addition to the console alerts, I would like SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security to also send email notifications."

"For vulnerabilities, they are showing CVE ID. The naming convention should be better so that it indicates the container where a vulnerability is present. Currently, they are only showing CVE ID, but the same CVE ID might be present in multiple containers. We would like to have the container name so that we can easily fix the issue."

"Their search feature could be better."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Drata's pricing is quite reasonable. Compared to other tools in the market, including its biggest competitor, Vanta, Drata is much cheaper. Even compared to other tools like AuditBoard, which aren’t as good, Drata’s price remains competitive."

"I remember that my company used to pay 25,000 USD to use the product...The product's cost is really high, but it is a powerful tool."

"It's one of the more expensive options, but I think it's worth the money if you can afford it."

"SentinelOne is quite costly compared to other security platforms."

"Its pricing is constant. It has been constant over the previous year, so I am happy with it. However, price distribution can be better explained. That is the only area I am worried about. Otherwise, the pricing is very reasonable."

"Their pricing appears to be based simply on the number of accounts we have, which is common for cloud-based products."

"Singularity Cloud Workload Security's licensing and price were cheaper than the other solutions we looked at."

"SentinelOne provided competitive pricing compared to other vendors, and we are satisfied with the deal."

"PingSafe falls within the typical price range for cloud security platforms."

"PingSafe is less expensive than other options."

"PingSafe is cost-effective for the amount of infrastructure we have. It's reasonable for what they offer compared to our previous solution. It's at least 25 percent to 30 percent less."
