Featured Reviews

Israel Cavazos Landini - PeerSpot reviewer
Weekly insights and risk analysis facilitate informed security decisions
I appreciate the weekly insights Zafran provides, which include critical topics for networks and IT security, allowing us to evaluate which insights apply to our environment. The organization score feature is valuable to keep the leadership team updated on how our infrastructure fares security-wise. The applicable risk level versus base risk level feature is beneficial because prior to Zafran, we only used the base risk level, but now understand that risk depends on the asset itself. Zafran is an excellent tool.
Prakhar Pandey - PeerSpot reviewer
An user friendly solution for writing queries with intuitive flow
There should be more integration or an update to the visualization part of the charts or other graphs we plot. Currently, it integrates from your local directive with your local PC. If it is integrated into other platforms, that would be great. You can only write Python queries in Jupiter, not other languages, like, SQL or PySpark. Databricks is a software that provides writing queries in different languages. Jupiter should allow us to write in different languages.
OndrejKOVAC - PeerSpot reviewer
Empower clients with risk-based vulnerability management through continuous workflow and valuable insights
Tenable Security Center could improve by implementing more dynamic data displays and translating reports into European languages. This is especially relevant in Central Eastern Europe, where clients often require reports in local languages. Additionally, the licensing model could be more flexible for managed security providers, similar to a pay-as-you-go model.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Overall, we have seen about eighty-seven percent reduction of the number of vulnerabilities that require urgency to remediate, specifically the number of criticals."
"Zafran is an excellent tool."
"We are able to see the real risk of a vulnerability on our environment with our security tools."
"Zafran has become an indispensable tool in our cybersecurity arsenal."
"We saw benefits from Zafran Security almost immediately after deploying it."
"The product’s UI is pretty decent and fast."
"The valauble feature is compliance reporting system."
"Tenable SC's most valuable features are the low number of false positives and the strong capability of providing prioritization for the vulnerabilities detected."
"The tool provides us insight into the happens of the network and its hosts. It provides me with a list of hosts."
"I think that this is a good solution for evaluating vulnerability in the network."
"The initial setup process is simple."
"Compliance and vulnerability scans are most valuable. Compliance scan helps in validating how our teams are complying, and vulnerability scan helps in future-proofing. Its vulnerability detection is accurate."
"We really love the Security Center dashboard. It basically performs vulnerability scanning and then outputs a vulnerability data."
"The solution is completely stable and operation is user-friendly."
 

Cons

"I think the ability to have some enhanced reporting capabilities is something they can improve on, as they have good reports but we have asked for some specific reporting enhancements."
"The dashboarding and reporting functionality of Zafran Security is an area that definitely could use some improvements."
"Initially, we were somewhat concerned about the scalability of Zafran due to our large asset count and the substantial amount of information we needed to process."
"You can only write Python queries in Jupiter, not other languages, like, SQL or PySpark."
"The reports and plugins for reports and scans could benefit from enhancements."
"Tenable SC can improve by adding more integrations with HCI-type tools and more accurate vulnerability detection."
"The pricing is reasonable, but this could be brought down more aggressively, such as we see with Rapid7, Tenable SC's main competitor."
"Deploying Tenable.sc is highly complex because it's an on-prem solution, whereas Tenable.io is cloud-based, so you can go live as soon as you log in. Tenable.sc involves significant integration with other on-prem solutions, and the deployment takes about two to three weeks with the help of a system integrator"
"The solution needs to improve the vulnerability assessment because we have experienced some challenges with accuracy."
"Current web page needs improvement, slows down processes."
"The solution is expensive."
"The product could be user-friendly, and they could enhance the web application's security features."
