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.

Security boosts and seamless server access enhance workplace flexibility

I really love the way Orca Security worked. A potential improvement could be additional security features for the two-step authentication, such as fingerprint recognition similar to what Checkpoint does. That could be something to consider, though it's more about convenience than security as we didn't have any security issues.The timeout settings could be made more customizable, as sometimes if I leave the office early, it's still running unless manually turned off. The process of turning it off isn't very straightforward, so making it easier to turn off manually would be beneficial. It would be good for any business to implement so they don't have to use a VPN. Security in today's age is important, and if a company can afford it, they should get it as it's the most valuable protection against threats.

Daily endpoint monitoring has improved investigations and saved time but detection rules still need tuning

It is important to note that Rapid7 InsightCloudSec's features are not 100% precise, but I find about 70% of the time it is satisfactory. I would like to suggest that you improve it to be more precise, ideally making it 100% if possible. Some cases in Rapid7 InsightCloudSec indicate that the log is not enough, as they mostly just generate alerts, and the synchronization between data connectors is often problematic, particularly in terms of not being in sync always, especially between the AD and Rapid7 alerts, which generates numerous false positives. Additionally, the traditional rules should be updated, as this is a main point worth mentioning since we spend a lot of time fine-tuning these traditional rules. I suggest improving the legacy detection rules. If there are any authentication cases, such as impossible travel activity where a user has their SharePoint hosted in a different location, Rapid7 can often trigger alerts, creating confusion as we cannot fine-tune it properly. Another issue is with honeypot access. We sometimes lack necessary logs because Defender's advanced threat protection scanning gets detected as honeypot activity by Rapid7, leading to annoying and noisy alerts that we need to constantly close. If you can improve the traditional detection rules to reflect current detection rules, it would make it significantly easier for us to manage, as we constantly need to check legacy rules to update or possibly turn them off. Updating the legacy rules should be a priority.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"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."

"The most valuable feature is the notification system, providing real-time alerts and comparisons crucial for maintaining security."

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

"We're monitoring several cloud accounts with Singularity. It is convenient to identify issues or security failures in any account. It's nice to have all the details we need to solve these issues."

"SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security offers several valuable features, most notably the rapid vulnerability notifications that provide timely alerts regarding our infrastructure."

"SentinelOne's behaviour analytics are valuable because they detect anomalies and malicious behaviour that signature-based solutions might miss."

"For Singularity, the task capability is easy to use and it has a very intuitive dashboard, which streamlines the processes."

"Atlas security graph is pretty cool. It maps out relationships between components on AWS, like load balancers and servers. This helps visualize potential attack paths and even suggests attack paths a malicious actor might take."

More SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security pros

"Orca Security has updated its interface, making it more user-friendly. I find it particularly useful as it allows me to easily navigate the dashboard and prioritize actions based on severity and criticality."

"Orca's platform provides an agentless data collection facility that collects information directly from the cloud using APIs, with zero impact on performance."

"Once our organization is configured, any cloud account under that organization is automatically detected in Orca Security, along with all the assets associated with it."

"Orca Security has helped reduce the time it takes to address cloud security alerts."

"The vulnerability management does not require network scanning or agent technology, so I don't need to modify any of my products in order to do vulnerability assessments."

"Orca's SideScanning is the biggest feature. It's the 'wow' factor... With Orca's SideScanning, they just need permissions for your account and that makes it so simple."

"The initial setup is very easy."

"The most valuable feature of Orca Security is the automated scanning tool, user-friendliness, and ease of use."

More Orca Security pros

"Rapid7 InsightCloudSec has positively impacted our organization, as log management and vulnerability management in our company improved significantly."

"After implementing Rapid7 InsightCloudSec, we increased our CIS benchmark score from 48 to around 88 after addressing missing patches on some VM instances, indicating a significant positive impact."

"I find the security frameworks and security tools valuable. I think they're good in the infrastructure of the code security. They are also good at threat protection."

"Since implementing Rapid7 InsightCloudSec, manual cloud security checks have been reduced by around forty to fifty percent, and mean time to resolve misconfigurations has dropped from several hours to under thirty minutes on average, significantly improving efficiency and client confidence."

"ICSE is cheaper compared to other tools and has a pleasant user experience with good support."

"It runs every hour and has been reliable since I started."

"The tool provides centralized visibility through dashboards and alerts, allowing customers to receive reports on cloud vulnerabilities and security posture. Rapid7 InsightCloudSec provides customers with a robust understanding of cloud security."

"Agentless scanning is a possible use with Rapid7 InsightCloudSec."

More Rapid7 InsightCloudSec pros

Cons

"The categorization of the results from the vulnerability assessment could be improved."

"We use SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security and also SentinelOne. If SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security integrated some of the endpoint security features of SentinelOne, it would be the perfect one-stop solution for everything. We wouldn't need to switch between the products. At my organization, I am responsible for endpoint security and vulnerability management. Integrating both functions into one application would be ideal because I could see all the alerts, heat maps, and reports in one console."

"I would like to see the map feature improve. It's good, but it isn't fully developed. It lets us use custom resources and policies but does not allow us to perform some actions. I would also like more custom integration and runtime security for Kubernetes."

"While SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security offers real-time response, there is room for improvement in alert accuracy."

"SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security's current documentation could be improved to better assist customers during the cluster onboarding process."

"We can customize security policies but lack auditing capabilities."

"The Singularity Cloud Security console is experiencing delays in clearing resolved issues, which can take over an hour to be removed from the display."

"They can add more widgets to its dashboard. A centralized dashboard with numerous metrics would improve user understanding."

More SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security cons

"The solution could improve by making the dashboards more elaborative and more descriptive."

"They can expand a little bit in anti-malware detection. While we have pretty good confidence that it's going to detect some of the static malware, some of the detections are heuristics. There could be a growth in the library from where they're pulling their information, but we don't get a lot of those alerts based on the design of our products. In general, that might be an area that needs to be filled since they offer it as a service within it."

"Orca needs improvement in snoozing or dismissing specific alarms."

"The main drawback in an agentless approach is that if the solution detects a virus or malware in the environment, we need to manually remove it. But from my experience with other production environments, it's not straightforward to install agents in the hope they will automatically remediate viruses, even from production environments... Ultimately, the ability to auto-remediate is something that I would like to see."

"The documentation for Orca Security could be improved."

"In the future, I'd like to see Orca work better with third-party vendors. Specifically, being able to provide sanitized results from third parties."

"I would like to see better customization options for security frameworks and better integration with reporting tools like Power BI or Grafana dashboards."

More Orca Security cons

"Rapid7 InsightCloudSec needs to provide more granular search capabilities, such as the ability to search back the last three months."

"There are a lot of other solutions in the market, not only providing the features of a CSPM, but also CNAPP."

"A couple of modules are missing when compared to other providers, specifically related to some IAM, and the login piece needs improvement."

"For a first-time user who starts using Rapid7 InsightCloudSec, it is somewhat complicated to navigate through the UI and search for logs or vulnerabilities, so this is one aspect that could be improved."

"The tool needs to improve its documentation."

"They didn't have any documentation on how to patch it."

"The platform could be improved with more customizable dashboards and reporting."

"Some cases in Rapid7 InsightCloudSec indicate that the log is not enough, as they mostly just generate alerts, and the synchronization between data connectors is often problematic, particularly in terms of not being in sync always, especially between the AD and Rapid7 alerts, which generates numerous false positives."

More Rapid7 InsightCloudSec cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is a little expensive. I would rate it a four out of ten for pricing."

"I wasn't sure what to expect from the pricing, but I was pleasantly surprised to find that it was a little less than I thought."

"It was reasonable pricing for me."

"Its pricing is okay. It is in line with what other providers were providing. It is not cheap. It is not expensive."

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

"The features included in PingSafe justify its price point."

"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."

"PingSafe is fairly priced."

More SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security pricing and cost advice

"Its license is a bit expensive."

"Orca Security is cheaper compared to other solutions in the same space."

"The most expensive solution is Palo Alto. They claim to be very robust. The next most expensive is Wiz, followed by Orca and all the rest."

"Overall, the pricing is reasonable and the discounts have been acceptable."

"Orca is very competitive when compared to the alternatives and is not the most expensive in the market, that's for sure."

"The pricing depends on how many assets you have running in your cloud and how many environments you have. If you have a dev environment, test environment, and a production environment then it's really important that you have coverage for all of them."

"While it's competitive with Palo Alto Prisma, I think Orca's list price is very high. I would advise Orca to lower it because, at that price, I might consider alternatives like Wiz, which also offers agentless services."

"I think their pricing model is aligned with market demand. Of course, Orca could probably better align their pricing model with the needs of smaller businesses as well as some larger-scale enterprises with millions of assets. But in all fairness, I think the Orca sales team has been accommodating and ensured that we're happy with the pricing."

More Orca Security pricing and cost advice

"We're doing an annual subscription. There are additional expenses, but not within the confines of this platform."

"Companies generally buy this tool because the pricing is not that high."
