A tool with great integration capabilities and a good support team
Picus Security has been implemented in our organization to enhance threat detection by allowing us to test some of the other security tools in our company. I recommend the product to others who plan to use it. The tool has not had an impact on our company's overall security posture since the time of implementation since we just used it for some testing purposes, during which it did show some interesting results. I rate the overall tool a nine out of ten.
Dmytro Petrashchuk - PeerSpot reviewer
Breach and attach simulation solution used to test security tools with a valuable library of hacking data
The most valuable feature is the huge library of hack attacks and breach methods. It can run different attacks in a safe manner without damaging anything inside the infrastructure. The great thing is that the database is constantly updating. It has signature attack playbooks to check if a company is protected against a potential attack.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It provides good reports and offers signature-based solutions."
"One of the most valuable features would be the detection capability, specifically the ability to detect alarms and logs collected from SIEM tools."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is its integration capabilities with the other security tools."
"You have the liberty of physically executing a specific set of rules in your environment."
"It's very useful software because the customer mostly configures their IPS and manages their firewalls, WAF, and the DBS according to the latest update, latest news, or according to the situation."
"The most valuable feature of Picus Security is its threat intelligence, providing suggestions to block and prevent attacks by identifying malicious files and providing threat IDs."
"The most valuable feature is the reporting database and attack protection."
"The most valuable feature is the huge library of hack attacks and breach methods."
 

Cons

"The amount of integrations that the product can handle is an area of concern, making it one of the aspects where improvements are required."
"There is room for improvement in the response rate provided by customer support."
"According to the attack vectors, you cannot specify which product is failing or which product is working well because there's no agent."
"Let's say if a customer's environment has 10 security devices and they need to know that there is an attack that has bypassed their devices, they cannot go and inspect every device and every rule in their security devices."
"The reporting and data analysis could be improved. Specifically, the analysis of the results."
"To improve, Picus Security could consider establishing a data center in India to address trust issues and increase interest from Indian customers."
"I would like to see some integration on the customization and customer support."
"There is room for improvement in the interface. It is not always easy to find the options that you need and not everything is customizable."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"They have certain price ranges for their products, depending upon the use cases, and the number of applications the customer wants to try."
"There is a yearly license according to the number of vectors. The pricing is moderate."
"The price starts from about $140,000 so this solution is expensive in my opinion. Maintenance and support is included in the license cost."
"The pricing is more expensive than other options on the market today."
